The
convect
feature uses a fan to circulate the oven's
heat uniformly around the oven. This improved heat
distribution allows for fast, even cooking and browning
results. Heated air flows around the food from all sides,
sealing in juices and flavors. Convect provides better
results when baking using multiple oven racks. Most foods
cooked with a bake setting will cook faster and more
evenly when using the
convect
features.

•
When using the convect features, any cook time
reductions used may need to vary depending on the
oven set temperature.
•
When baking layer cakes, use the
bake
feature to
obtain the best possible results.
•
The convect fan will not start until 6 minutes after
setting the
convect bake
or
convect roast
features.
•
If the oven door is opened when a convect feature is
active, the convect fan will stop rotating until the oven
door is closed.
Benefits of the convection features
— Foods cook more evenly
— Multiple rack baking
— No special pans or bakeware needed
NOTES
Suggestions for convect baking
•
For optimum results it is recommended to preheat the
oven before baking foods such as cookies, biscuits and
breads.
•
Reduce the oven temperature 25°F from the recipe’s
recommended oven temperature. Follow the remainder
of the recipe’s instructions using the minimum
recommended cook time.
•
When using 2 oven racks at the same time, place in
positions 2 & 5 for best results (Fig. 1).
Suggestions for convect roasting
•
Preheating is not necessary when roasting foods using
convect roast
.
•
Since
convect roast
cooks faster, reduce cook times
by 25% from the recommended time of your recipe
(check the food at this time). Then if needed, increase
cook time until the desired doneness is obtained.
•
Do not cover foods when dry roasting - this will prevent
the meat from browning properly.
When choosing the different convect features, use the
convect
keypad to toggle between the choices.
