Using the Convection Oven
Adapting Recipes…
You can use your favorite recipes in the
convection oven.
When convection baking, reduce baking
temperature by 25°F or activate the Auto
Recipe
™
Conversion feature. See
Auto
Recipe
™
Conversion
in the
Special Features of
Your Oven Control
section.
NOTE:
The convection fan will cycle on and off
while cooking to best distribute hot air in the
oven.
The convection oven fan shuts off when the oven
door is opened. DO NOT leave the door open for
long periods of time while using convection
cooking or you may shorten the life of the
convection heating element.
In a convection oven, a fan circulates hot air
over, under and around the food.
This circulating hot air is evenly distributed
throughout the oven cavity. As a result, foods
are more evenly cooked and browned—often
in less time with convection heat.
■
Ideal for evenly browned baked foods cooked
on multiple racks.
■
Good for large quantities of baked foods.
■
Good results with cookies, biscuits, muffins,
brownies, cupcakes, cream puffs, sweet rolls
and bread.
When convection baking with only 1 rack,
follow the rack positions recommended in
the Using the oven section.
Because heated air is circulated
throughout the oven, foods can be
successfully baked using multiple racks.
Multi-rack baking may increase cook times
slightly for some foods but the overall
result is time saved. Cookies, muffins,
biscuits and other quickbreads give very
good results with multi-rack baking.
When baking on 3 racks, place one
rack in the second (B) position, one
in the fourth (D) position and one in
the sixth (F) position.
For two-rack baking, place one rack
in the second (B) rack position. Place
the other rack in the fourth (D) rack
position.
