Convection Bake
Benefits of Convection Bake:
--Some foods cook up to 30% faster,
saving time and energy.
--Multiple rack baking.
--No special pans or bakeware needed.
The CONV BAKE
pad controls the Convection Bake feature. Use the
Convection Bake feature when cooking speed is desired. The oven can be
programmed for Convection baking at any temperature between 300 ° F (149 °
C) to 550 ° F (288 ° C).
Convection baking uses a fan to circulate the oven's heat evenly and
continuously within the oven (See Figure 1). This improved heat distribution
allows for fast, even cooking and browning results. It also gives better baking
results when using 2 or 3 racks at the same time. Breads and pastries brown
more evenly. Most foods cooked in a standard oven will cook faster and more
evenly with Convection Bake.

When using Convection Bake, decrease your normal cooking times as shown on page 31. Adjust the cook time for
desired doneness as needed. Time reductions will vary depending on the amount and type of food to be cooked.
Cookies and biscuits should be baked on pans with no sides or very low sides to allow heated air to circulate around Z
the food. Food baked on pans with a dark finish will cook faster. _'_
Preheating is not necessary when cooking casseroles with Convection Bake. E
When using Convection Bake with a single rack, place oven rack in position 3 or 4. If cooking on multiple racks, place _
the oven racks in positions 1,3 and 5 (for 3 racks) and positions 2 and 4 (for 2 racks; See Fig. 2). Z
