Convection Baking/Convection Convert Tips:
Fully preheat the oven before baking items like cookies,
biscuits, and breads.
When using any single rack, position the rack so that the
food is in the center of the oven.
Dark or dull bakeware absorbs more heat than shiny
bakeware resulting in dark or overbrowning of foods. It
may be necessary to reduce the oven temperature or cook
time to prevent overbrowning of some foods. Dark
bakeware is recommended for pies. Shiny bakeware is
recommended for cakes, cookies, and muffins.
When using convection, use bakeware with low sides. This
allows the air to circulate around the food evenly.
Because most food items will cook faster and more evenly
with the convection feature, it is advisable to reduce recipe's
recommended temperature by 25° for best results. Follow
the recipe's instructions using the minimum recommended
cook time.
When using convection bake, cook time reductions may
vary depending on the amount and type of food being
cooked.
For batter and dough-based baked goods such as cakes,
pastries, and breads, use the convection bake function for
best results. Place the pans as shown in
Do not open the oven door often. Opening the door will
reduce the temperature in the oven and may increase bake
time.
Glass bakeware may require reduced temperatures.
When using Convec Bake, cook time reductions may vary
depending on the amount and type of food being cooked.
For best results when baking cakes or cookies using two
oven racks, place racks in positions 1 and 5
place pans as shown in
and glide rack in position 1.
When baking using two oven racks, position bakeware as
shown in
Figure
18. Allow at least 2 inches (5 cm) of space
between bakeware for proper air circulation.

Pressing Conv Convert automatically converts the cooking
temperature entered for any standard baking recipe to the
lower temperature required for convection baking.
When convection convert is used with a timed convection bake
setting of 20 minutes or more, the convection convert function
will display a CF message as a reminder to check food when the
bake time is 75% complete
control will sound 1 long beep at regular intervals until the set
cook time has finished.
Important note:
Convection convert may only be used with the convection
bake function and with a minimum of 20 minutes cook time.
The convection fan will begin rotating once convection
bake, convection roast, or convection convert has been acti-
vated. If the oven door is opened when any convection
function is active, the convection fan will stop rotating until
the oven door is closed.
