Convection Element
If you have purchased one of the convection oven
models you will find the convection element (not
visible) and fan located at the back of the oven
cavity.
This element and fan combination performs the
cooking when in the convection bake mode.
When in any of the convection modes the fan is
on, see Table 3.

About Convection Ovens
Both the single ovens and double ovens are avail-
able as either conventional thermal ovens or as
convection ovens.
Although most people are familiar with the opera-
tion of a conventional thermal oven many are un-
clear as to how a convection oven works or in
what ways it is superior to a conventional thermal
oven.
Below you will find a brief explanation of how a
convection oven works and its advantages.

Many of your own recipes have time and tempera-
ture instruction for the regular bake cycle. As a
rule, most of these recipes can be cooked with
better results in one of the convection cycles. In
general, to convert standard recipes for use in
convection, you reduce the temperature by about
25°F and check for doneness at the minimum sug-
gested cooking time.
When baking on more than 1 rack it may be nec-
essary to increase the cooking time a few minutes
for each additional rack. As individual tastes vary,
you may find you need to adjust the time and tem-
perature to achieve desired results.

We do not recommend you use oven thermome-
ters found at many grocery stores to check oven
temperature. They may be inaccurate and are slow
to respond to temperature changes.
