Oven Features
•
As a general rule, to convert conventional recipes to convection recipes, reduce the temperature by 25°F (14°C) when
using a convection cooking function.
• Cooking times for standard baking and convection baking will be the same. However, if using convection to cook a single
item or smaller load, then it is possible to have 10-15% reduction in cooking time. (Remember convection cooking is
designed for multi-rack baking or cooking large loads.)
• If cooking items which require longer than 45 minutes, then it is possible to see a 10-15% reduction in cooking time.
• A major benefit of convection cooking is the ability to prepare foods in quantity. The uniform air circulation makes this
possible. Foods that can be prepared on two of three racks at the same time
include: pizza, cakes, cookies, biscuits, muffins, rolls, and frozen convenience foods.
• For three-rack baking, use any combination of rack positions 2, 3, 4, and 5. For two-rack baking, use rack positions 2 and
4 or positions 3 and 5. Remember that the racks are numbered from bottom to top.

Rack Positions
The 30”, 36”, 48” right-hand and both 60” W. ovens are equipped with three tilt-proof racks. The 18” left-hand oven is
equipped with two standard tilt-proof racks. All ovens have six rack positions. Position 6 is the farthest from the oven
bottom. Position 1 is the closest to the oven bottom. The racks can be easily removed and arranged at various levels. For
best results with conventional baking, DO NOT use more than one rack at a time. It is also recommended, when using two
racks, to bake with the racks in positions 2 and 4 or positions 3 and 5.
Gentle Close Door Feature
All oven doors come standard with a gentle close feature. The door will remain in an open position until the door is
approximately 5” (12.7 cm) away from the oven. When reaching this point, the door will require a slight push to engage the
gentle close mechanism. The closing speed of the door will vary according to the oven temperature.
Using the Oven
Conventional and Convection Cooking
Because of variations in food density, surface texture and consistency, some foods may be prepared more successfully using
the conventional bake setting. For this reason, conventional baking is recommended when preparing baked goods such as
custard. The user may find other foods that are also prepared more consistently in conventional bake. It is recommended to
use this function for single-rack baking.
Convection Cooking Tips
Convection cooking is a technique utilizing fan-forced air which is circulated throughout the entire oven cavity creating the
optimum cooking environment. Cooking with convection is intended when performing multi-rack baking and for heavier
foods. Below are some tips which will allow you to get the best results out of your oven when cooking with convection.
