OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
CONVECTION BAKE & TURBO (Continued)
Preheating
Preheat the oven before baking. The oven does not need to be preheated for large pieces of
meat or poultry. See your recipe for preheating recommendation. Preheating time depends on
the temperature setting and the number of racks in the oven.
Temperature Setting
When using Convection Bake, reduce the temperature recommended in the recipe by 25°F.
When roasting meats, check internal temperature prior to time recommended by recipe to
prevent over cooking. When roasting meats in convection mode, do not reduce temperature
setting.
Condensation
It is normal for a certain amount of moisture to evaporate from the food during any cooking
process The amount depends on the moisture content of the food. The moisture will condense
on any surface cooler than, the inside of the oven, such as the control panel.
Rack Positions
Large Main Oven One Rack Baking When baking on one rack, best results are obtained in the
bake mode (see Bake). When roasting a turkey or a large piece of meat, convection bake may
be used. Rack 4 is the most appropriate rack.
Two Rack Baking
Racks 4 and 2 are most appropriate when using the convection bake mode. Round cake pans
should be staggered on racks 4 and 2. Rectangular (9 x 13) cake pans and cookie sheets
should be placed on rack 4 directly under the one on rack 2. This may be used for cakes,
cookies, biscuits and other foods for which two rack baking is desirable. When several
casseroles, frozen pies or cakes are to be baked, use racks 4 and 2. These two racks can also
be used for a large oven meal.
Bakeware Type
Aluminum bake ware gives the best browning results. Cookie sheets with only two sides give
the best results. Aluminum commercial half-sheets or professional cooking utensils may be
used but baking times may be increased.
Placement
For better browning, utensils such as cookie sheets. Rectangular baking pans should be
placed crosswise on the rack with the shorter side facing right and left to allow better air flow.
When baking on more than one rack, cookie sheets and rectangular (9 x 13) cake pans should
not be staggered; round cake pans should be staggered.
Settings for BAKE/CONVECTION and BAKE/CONVECTION/TURBO Cooking Modes
These cooking modes are for baking, roasting or warming using one or two racks.
1.) Select BAKE/CONVECTION or BAKE/CONVECTION/TURBO using the Selector
switch.
2.) Set the oven temperature using the oven temperature control knob (not over the
maximum 500°F position). If using CONVECTION, set the oven control knob 25°F below
the temperature suggested in the recipe. Do NOT change recipe temperature if roasting
meats or poultry.
