Using the Convection Oven
Wall Oven
Adapting
recipes
You can use your favorite recipes in the
convection oven.
When baking, reduce baking temperature by 25°F.
No need to preheat when cooking longer than
15 minutes.
Use pan size recommended.
Some package instructions for frozen casseroles
or main dishes have been developed using
commercial convection ovens. For best results
in this oven, preheat the oven and use the
temperature on the package.
Multi-shelf
baking
When convection baking with only 1 shelf, follow
the shelf positions recommended in the Baking or
Roasting section.
Because heated air is circulated evenly
throughout the oven, foods can be baked with
excellent results using multiple shelves.
Multi-shelf 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-shelf baking.
When baking on 3 shelves, place one shelf in
the bottom (A) position, one on the third (C)
position and one in the fifth (E) shelf position.

cooking
Before using your convection oven, check to
see if your cookware leaves room for air
circulation in the oven. If you are baking with
several pans, leave space between them. Also,
be sure the pans do not touch each other or
the walls of the oven.
Paper and Plastic
Heat-resistant paper and plastic containers that
are recommended for use in regular ovens can
be used in convection ovens. Plastic cookware
that is heat-resistant to temperatures of 400°F
can also be used.
Metal and Glass
Any type of cookware will work in your convection
oven. However, metal pans heat the fastest and
are recommended for convection baking.
Darkened or matte-finished pans will bake
faster than shiny pans.
Glass or ceramic pans cook more slowly.
When baking cookies, you will get the best
results if you use a flat cookie sheet instead of
a pan with low sides.
For recipes like oven-baked chicken, use a pan
with low sides. Hot air cannot circulate well
around food in a pan with high sides.
