SETTING OVEN CONTROLS
Convection Bake
Convection Bake uses a fan to circulate the oven's heat
uniformly around the oven. This improved heat distribution
allows for even cooking and browning. Heated air flows
around the food from all sides.
Convection bake may be set for any oven temperature
between 170°F (77°C) and 550°F (288°C).
Benefits of convection cooking include:
• Multiple rack baking.
Baking tips
• Fully preheat the oven before baking items like cookies,
cakes, biscuits and breads.
• When baking cakes using two oven racks place
bakeware in positions 1 flat and 3 glide and place
bakeware as shown in
Figure 14.
• When using any single rack for baking cookies, cakes,
biscuits or muffins, use rack position 3 flat or 2 glide.
• Unless the recipe is written for convection cooking, use
Conv Convert to reduce oven temperature from the
recipe’s recommended oven temperature.
To set convection bake with a default oven set tempera-
ture of 350°F:
1. Press Conv Bake.
2. Conv Bake and 350° will appear in the display.
3. Press OK/START. The convection fan will turn on and
stay on during the cooking process.
4. To cancel convection bake at any time, press OFF.
Setting Convection Convert
Pressing the Convect Convert key automatically converts
the cooking temperature entered for any standard baking
recipe to the lower temperature required for convection
baking.
To set the oven for convection bake with a standard
baking recipe temperature of 400°F:
1. Arrange interior oven racks.
2. Press Conv Bake.
3. Press 4 0 0.
4. Press Conv Convert.
5. Press OK/START.
6. Place food in the oven.
Important note:
• Convection convert may only be used with the Convec-
tion Bake function.
• When using convection convert, bake time reductions
may vary depending on the oven set temperature.
• If the oven door is opened when any convection
function is active, the convection fan will stop rotating
until the oven door is closed.
• Do not open the oven door often. Opening the door will
reduce the temperature in the oven and may increase
the cooking time necessary for best results.

Pressing OFF will stop the feature at any time.
Always use pot holders or oven mitts when using the
