Adapting Recipes…
You can use your favorite recipes in the
convection oven.
When convection baking, the Auto
Recipe
™ Conversion feature automatically
reduces the set regular baking
temperature by the recommended 25°F.
See Auto Recipe
™ Conversion in the Special
features of your oven control section.
■
Use pan size recommended.
■ Some package instructions for frozen
casseroles or main dishes have been
developed using commercial convection ovens.
For best results in this oven, preheat the oven
and use the temperature on the package.
NOTE: The convection fan will cycle on and off
while cooking to best distribute hot air in the
oven.
The convection oven fan shuts off when the oven
door is opened. DO NOT leave the door open for
long periods of time while using convection
cooking or you may shorten the life of the
convection heating element.
In a convection oven, a fan circulates hot air over,
under and around the food.
This circulating hot air is evenly distributed
throughout the oven cavity. As a result, foods are
evenly cooked and browned—often in less time
with convection heat.
■ Ideal for evenly browned baked foods cooked
on multiple shelves.
■ Good for large quantities of baked foods.
■
Good results with cookies, biscuits, muffins,
brownies, cupcakes, cream puffs, sweet rolls,
angel food cake and bread.
The convection fan circulates the heated
air evenly over and around the food.

When convection baking with only 1 shelf,
follow the shelf positions recommended in
the Using the oven section.
Because heated air is circulated evenly
throughout the oven, foods can be
baked with excellent results using
multiple shelves.
Multi-shelf baking may increase cook
times slightly for some foods but the
overall result is time saved. Cookies,
muffins, biscuits and other quickbreads
give very good results with multi-shelf
baking.
When baking on 3 shelves, place one
shelf in the second (B) position, one
in the fourth (D) position and one in
the 6th (F) position.
