OPERATION
SETTING CONVECTION BAKE
Benefits of Convection Bake:
1.
Some foods cook up to 25 to 30% faster, saving time and
energy.
2.
Multiple rack baking.
3.
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).
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.
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 D. If cooking on multiple racks, place the
oven racks in positions B and D (for 2 racks). Place in
positions B, D, and F (for 3 racks).
• Cakes have better results when baked using the BAKE pad
(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.

The convection fan can stop during a convection bake
cycle to allow for more even heating. This is not a
failure of the range and should be considered normal
operation.
