Convection Bake
Convection Bake uses a fan to circulate the oven heat evenly
and continuously. The improved heat distribution allows for
even cooking with excellent results. Multiple rack cooking may slightly increase cool< times for some foods, but the overall result is time saved.
The Conv Baize feature should ONLY be used when your recipe instructions have been written for use with convection baking.
If your recipe instructions are for normal baking and you wish to use convection baize, follow the Convection Convert option instructions. The convection convert option
will automatically adjust the oven temperature so that convection baking may provide the best possible results.
Conv Baize may be set with the following options:
