Convection Baking Tips:
• Always preheat your oven before using the Convection Bake mode.
• During preheat, the 3 elements and the convection fan are used in cycle to quickly heat the oven.
• If your recipe cooking temperature has already been converted for convection baking there is no need to reduce your oven temperature. If your recipe has not had the temperature converted for convection baking you can easily reduce using the Convection Convert feature. Please see Convection Convert section on next page for further instruction on temperature conversion.

•Use tested recipes with times adjusted for convection baking when using this mode. With single rack convection baking the some foods may have as much as a 25% reduction in cook time, check food at minimum time. Time reductions will vary depending on the amount and type of food to be cooked.
•When using Convection Bake with a single rack, place oven rack in position 3 or 4. If cooking on multiple racks, place the oven racks in positions 3 and 8 (offset rack) or 2, 4 and 8.
•Most bakeries (except cakes) 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.
