OPERATING THE OVEN

Conv Bake

The oven convection fan circulates and distributes the heat in the oven for faster and even cooking.

Convection cooking allows you to bake more items on multiple racks.

To bake using the convection fan:

1. Position the oven bottom cover and the oven shelves before using oven.

2. Remove any unused shelves and baking utensils from the oven.

3. Preheat the oven to the temperature stated in the recipe. Depending on the temperature and the size

of the oven, preheating will take around 15-20 minutes.

4. Arrange pans and food items evenly on the shelves. Make sure pans do not touch each other or

the sides of the oven. When baking a single item, always center the

item on the oven shelf. If baking

on multiple shelves, make sure you stagger items on the shelves so that one is never directly above

another.

5. When baking using convection, either reduce the temperature stated in the recipe and leave the

baking time unchanged, or reduce the baking time by several minutes and leave the temperature

unchanged. For foods with a baking time of over an hour, reducing both the temperature and time

slightly may give the best results.

6. Dark metal baking pans or those with a dull ﬁnish absorb heat faster than shiny pans, an dare

excellent for pies and breads, or anything that needs browning or a crisper crust.

7. A shiny ﬁnish may work best for foods that require lighter, delicate browning (e.g. cakes and cookies),

as it reﬂects some heat and gives a less intense baking surface.

8. Avoid opening the oven door frequently during baking. How to set the oven for convection bake:

1. Press or to select “Conv Bake” , and then press “Start/OK”.

2. Press or to select the desired temperature, and then press “Start/OK”.

3. Displays cooking time settings, you can press or to select preferred cooking time or press

“Cancel”.

4. Press “Start/OK”, or do not set cooktime directly press “Start/OK” and then the oven will work on the

maximum safe time. The temperature display will start to change once the oven.
