Convection Bake
Convection functions use a fan to circulate the oven's heat uni-
formly and continuously around the oven (
Figure 20
). This
improved heat distribution allows for fast, even baking and
browning results. It also gives better baking results when using
two oven racks at the same time. Heated air flows around the
food from all sides, sealing in juices and flavors. Breads and
pastry brown more evenly. Most foods baked in a standard pan
will bake faster and more evenly with the convection feature.
Multiple rack baking may slightly increase bake time for some
foods, but the overall result is time saved.
The convection bake feature is best used when the recipe
instructions have been written especially for convection baking.
If the recipe instructions are for baking and you wish to use
convection baking, follow the
“Convection Convert”
instructions
on
page 19
. Convection convert will automatically adjust the
oven temperature so that convection baking will provide the
best possible results.
Benefits of convection bake:
•
Superior multiple oven rack performance
•
Foods bake more evenly
•
No special pans or bakeware required
•
Foods can bake up to 25 to 30% faster.
Convection bake may be set with the following options:
•
Convection convert
•
Fast preheat
•
Meat probe
•
Cook time or cook time with end time settings
To set convection bake with the factory default temperature
of 350°F (176°C):
Always use pot holders or oven mitts when working with a hot
oven. When baking, the oven interior and oven racks will
become hot enough to cause burns.
IMPORTANT!
If the oven door is opened when convection
bake is active, the convection fans will stop rotating until the
oven door is closed.
When using convection bake, bake time reductions may vary
depending on the amount and type of food being baked.
