Convection baking
Tips for convection baking
The amount of time you save will vary depending on the amount and type of food
you are cooking. When baking cookies or biscuits, you should use pans with no
sides or very low sides to allow the heated air to circulate around the food. Using
a pan with a dark finish will produce faster cooking times.
When using convection baking with a single rack, place the oven rack in position
3 or 4. If cooking on multiple racks, place the oven racks in position 3 and 5 or 2
and 5.
When baking a cake, using the bake mode (not the convection bake mode) will
produce better results.

By using the convection bake feature, you
will be able to cook faster. Convection

baking uses a fan to circulate the oven's

heat evenly and continuously within the

oven. This improved heat distribution allows

for even cooking and excellent results

while using multiple racks at the same

time. Foods cooked on a single oven rack

will generally cook faster and more evenly
with convection baking. 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. You can program the oven
for convection baking at any temperature
between 175 °F and 550 °F.
