KitchenAid 30" Combination Wall Oven with Even-Heat™ True Convection (Lower Oven) Use & Care Manual

EasyConvect™ Conversion

Convection cooking uses the convection element, the broil 

element and the fan. Hot air is circulated throughout the oven 

cavity by the fan. The constantly moving air surrounds the food 

to heat the outer portion quickly.

■

   The convect function may be used to cook small amounts 

of food on a single rack.

■

   Always use the convection grid placed on turntable or 

baking tray.

■

   Always use the turntable “On” option when convection 

cooking with the convection grid (default setting).

■

   Do not cover turntable or convection grid or baking tray 

with aluminum foil.

■

   Do not use light plastic containers, plastic wrap, or paper 

products. All heatproof cookware or metal utensils can 

be used in convection cooking. Round pizza pans are 

excellent for convection cooking.

■

   Use convection cooking for items such as souffles, breads, 

cookies, angel food cakes, pizza, and most meats and fish.

■

   All EasyConvect™ functions require preheating before use. 

Place food in microwave oven after preheating is complete.

EasyConvect™ Conversion is a function that converts a 

standard thermal bake cook time and temperature into an ideal 

cook time and temperature for convection cooking after the 

oven has preheated.

Convection temperatures and times differ from those of 

standard cooking. The oven can 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.

Biscuits, Breads: quick and yeast,
Cakes and Cookies
Casseroles: including frozen entrées 

and soufflés

Fish

1

Baked potatoes
Chicken: whole and pieces, Meat loaf,
Roasts: pork, beef, and ham
* Turkey and large poultry are not 

included because their cook times 

vary.

2

Convenience foods: french fries, 

nuggets, fish sticks, pizza,

Pies: fruit and custard
