Convection Bake
Convection bake uses a fan to circulate the oven heat evenly
and continuously (Figure 16). The improved heat distribution
allows for even cooking with excellent results. Multiple rack
cooking may slightly increase cook times for some food types,
but the overall result will be time saved.
The convection fan will cycle on and off during convection bake.
The conv bake feature should only be used when your recipe
instructions have been written especially for convection baking.
If your recipe instructions are for baking and you wish to use
conv bake, follow the conv convert option instructions. The conv
convert option will automatically adjust the oven temperature so
that convection baking will provide the best possible results.
Benefits of convection bake:
Multiple oven racks.
Foods cook more evenly.
No special pans or bakeware required.
Convection baking tips: For best results it is recommended to
preheat the oven before baking items like cookies, biscuits and
breads.
When using a single rack while baking, use rack position 3.
For cookies use the following racks:
Single rack baking use 2 (glide rack) or 3 (flat rack).
Two rack baking use 3 (flat) and 5 (glide) or 6 (flat).
Three rack baking 1 (flat),3 (flat) and 5 (glide).
For baking cakes use the following rack positions and place
bakeware as shown in Figure 17.
In upper rack use position 4 (glide) or 5 (flat) and place
bakeware closer to the front of the rack.
In lower rack (flat rack) use position 1 and place
bakeware in the middle of the rack.
Cookies and biscuits should be baked on pans with no
sides or very low side to allow heated air to circulate around
the food. Food items baked on pans with a dark finish will
cook faster.
To set convection bake with the factory default temperature
of 350° (176°):
1. Press UPPER or LOWER OVEN.
2. Press conv bake. 350°F will appear in the display.
3. Press START.
