Convection Cooking
In a convection oven, the fan-circulated hot air continually 
distributes heat more evenly than the natural movement of air in a 
standard thermal oven. This movement of hot air helps maintain a 
consistent temperature throughout the oven, cooking foods more 
evenly, crisping surfaces while sealing in moisture and yielding 
crustier breads.
Most foods can be cooked by lowering cooking temperatures 
25°F to 50°F (14°C to 28°C), and cooking time can be shortened 
by as much as 30 percent, especially for large turkeys and roasts.
It is important not to cover foods with lids or aluminum foil so 
that surface areas remain exposed to the circulating air, 
allowing browning and crisping.
Keep heat loss to a minimum by opening the oven door only 
when necessary.
Choose cookie sheets without sides and roasting pans with 
lower sides to allow air to move freely around the food.
Test baked goods for doneness a few minutes before the 
minimum cooking time using a method such as a toothpick.
Use a meat thermometer or the temperature probe to 
determine the doneness of meats and poultry. Check the 
temperature of pork and poultry in 2 or 3 places.
Convection Bake
The T.H.E.™ (Third Hidden Element) convection element is 
hidden in the rear panel of the oven cavity, and assisted by the 
convection fan, provides balanced, efficient heating.
A. T.H.E.™ Convection element (hidden) and fan
Convection baking can be used for baking delicate cakes and 
pastries, as well as foods on multiple racks. It is helpful to 
stagger items on the racks to allow a more even flow of heat. If 
the oven is full, extra cooking time may be needed.
When cooking an oven meal with several different types of foods, 
be sure to select recipes that require similar temperatures. 
Cookware should sit in the oven with at least 1" (2.5 cm) of space 
between the cookware and the sides of the oven.
During convection baking preheat, the T.H.E.™ convection 
element and broil element and the CleanBake™ element all heat 
the oven cavity. After preheat, the T.H.E.™ convection element 
and the CleanBake™ element, and the fan will cycle on and off in 
intervals to maintain oven temperature.
If the oven door is opened during convection baking,  the fan 
turns off immediately when the door is opened and turns on 
immediately when the door is closed. Convection, Bake and Broil 
(only during preheating) elements will turn off approximately 
30 seconds after the door is opened. They will turn on again 
approximately 30 seconds after the door is closed.
Reduce recipe temperature 25°F (14°C). The cook time may 
need to be reduced also.
To Convection Bake:
Before convection baking, position racks according to the 
“Positioning Racks and Bakeware” section. When using 2 racks, 
place on guides 1 and 4. When using 3 racks, place on guides
1, 3 and 5.
1. From the Main menu, touch CONVECT.
2. Touch BAKE.
3. To change the preset temperature, enter the desired 
temperature on the number keys. The convection bake 
temperature can be set between 170°F and 500°F (77°C and 
260°C).
4. To set the cook time, touch COOK TIME. Enter the desired 
cook time using the number keys.
