CONVECTION BAKE
(For the Lower Oven only)
Convection baking uses a fan to circulate the oven's heat evenly and continuously within the oven. This
improved heat distribution allows for even cooking and excellent results using multiple racks at the same time.
Foods cooked on a single oven rack will generally cook faster and more evenly with Convection Bake. Multiple
oven rack cooking may slightly increase cook times for some foods, but the overall result is time saved. Breads
and pastries brown more evenly.
Benefits of Convection Bake:
➊ Some foods cook up to 25 to 30% faster, saving
cooking time.
➋ Multiple rack baking.
➌ 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 Bake at any temperature
between 300°F (150°C) to 550°F (285°C).
To set oven to convection BAKE and
temperature to 375°F:
➊ Touch CONV. BAKE. The display
will flash 350 deg F.
➋ Set the oven temperature
(Touch 3, 7 and 5).
➌ Touch START. The display will show
CONV BAKE and the converted
temperature starting at 100°F. As the
oven preheats, the display will show
increasing temperatures in 5 degree
increments. Once the oven reaches
the desired adjusted temperature, a
tone will sound and the oven light
will flash on and off. The display will
show the auto converted oven
temperature 350 deg F, CONV
BAKE and the fan icon.
➍ Touch LOWER CLEAR OFF to cancel
Convection Bake at any time.
Tips for Convection Bake
• 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 the
food. Food baked on pans with a dark finish will
cook faster.
• When using Convection Bake with a single rack,
place oven rack in position C. If cooking on multiple
racks, place the oven racks in positions A and C (for
2 racks).
• Cakes have better results when baked using the
BAKE function. You can still (you can still use
multiple racks when baking multiple cake layers at
the same time).
• Cookies, muffins, biscuits and other quickbreads
give very good results when using multiple racks.
NOTE:
• The convection fan stops during a convection bake
cycle to allow for more even heating. This is normal.
