True Convection cooks with heat from a third element behind the

back wall of the oven. The heat is circulated throughout the oven

 

by the convection fan.

 

 

True Convection is well suited for cooking individual serving-sized foods such as cookies and biscuits. It is also good for cooking on multiple racks (2 or 3) at the same time. Baking cookies is possible on 6 racks simultaneously. In this case, the baking time increases slightly. The benefits of True Convection include:

Even browning.

Time savings as a result of using multiple racks at one time.

Reduce recipe temperature by 25 ºF. Refer to True Convection chart.

Place food in low-sided, uncovered pans such as cookie sheets without sides.

If baking more than one pan on a rack, allow at least 1" to 1 ½" of air space around the pan.

For cakes use rack positions 2 and 5 (see graphic below).
