EasyConvect™ Conversion

Convection cooking temperatures and times can differ from those 
of standard cooking. Depending upon the selected category, 
EasyConvect™ conversion automatically reduces the standard 
recipe temperature and/or time you input for convection cooking.
Foods are grouped into 4 general categories. Choose the category 
most appropriate for the food to be cooked. Use the following chart 
as a guide.

To Use:

NOTE: For best results, preheat your oven to the desired 
temperature prior to using Easy Convect™ Conversion. After 
preheating is complete, press OFF before using EasyConvect™ 
Conversion.
1. Press the EASY CONVECT key for the desired option (MEATS, 

BAKED GOODS, PIZZA or OTHER).

2. Press START.
3. Press the number keys to enter standard cook temperature, 

and then press START.

4. Press the number keys to enter standard cook time, and then 

press START.

5. Place the food in the oven.

Check food for doneness before the stop time is reached. If 
food will not be done when the stop time is reached, add more 
cooking time before time elapses (see the “Cook Time” 
section). At the end of the stop time, the oven will automatically 
turn off.

6. Press OFF when finished. 
7. Remove food from the oven.
