Timed Convection Baking

Wall Oven

Using the
features for
convection
baking

NOTE: 

Foods that spoil easily, such as milk, eggs,

fish, stuffings, poultry and pork, should not be
allowed to sit for more than 1 hour before or after
cooking. Room temperature promotes the growth of
harmful bacteria. Be sure that the oven light is off
because heat from the bulb will speed harmful bacteria
growth.

On double oven models, you can use timed
baking in one oven while using self-clean in the
other; you can also use timed baking in both
ovens at the same time.

How to set 
an immediate
start and
automatic
stop

The oven will turn on immediately and cook for a selected
length of time. At the end of the cooking time, the oven
will turn off automatically.

Make sure the oven clock shows the correct 
time of day.

1

Press the 

CONVECTION BAKE

pad.

2

Press the number pads to set the desired 
oven temperature.

3

Press the 

COOK TIME pad.

NOTE:

If your recipe requires preheating, you may need

to add additional time to the length of the cooking time.

4

Press the number pads to set the desired length
of cooking time. The minimum cooking time
you can set is 1 minute. 

The oven temperature that you set and the
cooking time that you entered will be in the
display.

5

Press the 

START

pad.

The display shows the oven temperature that 
you set and the cooking time countdown. (The
display starts changing once the temperature
reaches 100°F.)

NOTE:

On double oven models when using both ovens

at the same time, the times showing in the display will be
for the last oven set. To display the time set for the first
oven set, press the COOK TIME pad for that oven.

6

At the end of timed convection bake, the oven
will turn off. The end of cycle tone will sound.
Press the 

CLEAR/OFF

pad to clear the display

if necessary.

7

Remove the food from the oven. Remember,
foods that are left in the oven continue cooking
after the controls are off.

NOTE: 

You will hear a fan while cooking with this

feature. The fan will stop when the door is opened but the
heat will not turn off.
