Setting Convection Convert
Convection convert automatically converts a standard
baking recipe for convection baking. When set properly, this
feature is designed to display the actual converted
(reduced) temperature in the display. Convection convert
may only be used with a convection bake cooking mode. It
can be used with a delay start and bake time. For delay
start instructions and bake time instructions see page 24. If
convection conversion is used with the bake time and delay
start features, CF (check food) will be displayed when 75%
of the bake time complete. At this time the oven control will
sound three long beeps at regular intervals until baking time
is finished. The control will display End and continue to
beep at regular intervals until off is pressed.
To set the oven for convection bake with a standard
baking recipe temperature of 400°F:
.
2.
.
Arrange interior oven racks.
Press convect. Convect and bake will flash and 350
will appear in the display.
Pres 4 0 0. Convect and bake will keep flashing and
400° will appear in the display.
4. Press start.
.
.
Set bake time or delay start if needed. For delay start
or bake time instructions, see page 24.
Press convect convert, and the oven temperature
displayed will be 25°F lower than the original set
temperature of 400°R The actual oven temperature and
the fan icon will be displayed. A beep will sound once
the oven temperature reaches 375°F, and the display
will show 375°, CONVECT, BAKE, and the fan icon.
7. Place food in the oven.
When using a bake time under 20 minutes, the convec-
tion convert will not beep and display the CF message.
Pressing off will stop the feature at any time.
Bake, broil, and convection elements will cycle for better
heat distribution and faster and more even cooking.
Important: 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.
Setting Convection Broil (some models)
Use this mode for thicker cuts of meat, fish, and poultry. The
convection broiling gently browns the exterior and seals in
the juices. Convection broiling uses the broil element and a
fan to circulate the oven's heat evenly and continuously
within the oven.
The oven can be programmed for convection and normal
broiling at any temperature between 400°F to 550°F with a
default temperature of 550°F (See Table 1).
To set a convection broil temperature of 500°F:
1. Arrange oven racks first. Press convect. The display
will show 350 and convect and bake will flash.
2. Press convect two more times. The display will show
550 and convect and broil will flash.
3. Press 5 0 0 using numeric keys.
4. Press start.

500, CONVECT, BROIL, and the fan icon will show in
the display.
Allow oven to preheat for 2 minutes then place food in
the oven.
The preheat tone will not sound for this feature. When
broiling in the upper rack positions use the offset rack (if
Convection broiling tips:
• For optimum browning, preheat the broil element for 2
minutes. Always pull the rack out to the stop position
before turning or removing food.
• Always use a broiler pan and its grid when broiling. It
keeps grease away from the high heat of the broil
element.
Do not use the broil pan without the insert. Do not cover
the broil pan insert with foil. The exposed grease could
catch fire. If using a searing grill (available by mail
order), preheat the grill for 5 to 10 minutes before
placing your meat. Broil one side until the food is
browned; turn and cook on the second side. Season
and serve.
• Convection broiling is generally faster than conventional
broiling. Check for doneness at the minimum recom-
mended time.
