Setting Convection Bake
The CONV BAKE Bok..... _pad controls the Convection Bake feature. Use

Air circulation of Convection Cooking Fig. 1
Convection baking uses a fan to circulate the oven'sheat evenly and continuously within the oven (See Fig. 1). This improved heat distribution allows for even cooking and excellent results using multiple racks at the same time. Foods cooked on a single oven rack will generally cook faster and more evenly with Convection Bake. Multiple oven rack cooking may slightly increase cook times for some foods, but the overall result is time saved. Breads and pastries brown more evenly.
Tips for Convection Bake
1.Time reductions will vary depending on the amount and type of food to be cooked. Cookies and biscuits 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.
2.Preheating is not necessary when cooking casseroles with Convection Bake.
3.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 1, 3 and 6 (for 3 racks) and positions 2 and 5 (See Fig. 1).
4.Cakes have better results when baked using the BAKE _akepad.
