Convection Cook
(on some models)
The convection oven comes with one
convection cook mode and can be used
for !-Rack Convection Baking or ivlulti-Rack
Convection Baking.
Convection Fan Operation
In a convection oven, a fan circulates hot air
over, under and around the food.
This circulating hot air is evenly distributed
throughout the oven cavity. As a result, foods are
evenly cooked and browned-often in less time
with convection heat.
NOTE:To maximize cooking evenness,the fun
is designed to rotate in both directions, with a
pause in between. This is normal.
The convection fun shuts off when the oven
door is opened. DO NOTleave the door open
for long periods of time while using convection
cooking or you may shorten the life of the
convection heating element.

Multi-Rack Convection Baking
Because heated air is circulated evenly
throughout the oven, foods can be baked with
excellent results using multiple racks.
ivlulti-rack baking may increase cook times
slightly for some foods but the overall result
is time saved. Cookies,muffins, biscuits and
other quickbreads give very good results with
multi-rack baking.
When baking on 3 racks, place one rack in the
second (B)position, another rack in the fourth
(D)position and the third rack in the sixth (F)
position.
For two-rack baking, place one rack
in the second (B)rack position. Place
the other rack in the fifth (E)rack position.
1-Rack Convection Baking
When convection baking with only 1 rack, place
the food so that it is centered in the oven.
