Auto Convection Conversion is a function that converts a standard thermal bake cook time and temperature into an ideal cook time and temperature for convection cooking.
Convection temperatures and times differ from those of standard cooking. The oven will automatically reduce standard recipe temperatures and times for convection cooking.
The conversion may not be exact because foods are grouped in general categories.
Use the following chart as a guide.
