OPERATION

 

•

Baking time and temperature will vary depending 

on the characteristics, size, and shape of the 

baking pan used.

 

•

Check for food doneness at the minimum recipe 

time.

 

•

Use metal bakeware (with or without a nonstick 

finish), heatproof glass-ceramic, ceramic or other 

bakeware recommended for oven use.

 

•

Dark metal pans or nonstick coatings will cook food 

faster with more browning. Insulated bakeware will 

slightly lengthen the cooking time for most foods.

The oven bottom has a porcelain-enamel finish. 

To make cleaning easier, protect the oven bottom 

from excessive spillovers by placing a cookie 

sheet on the rack below the rack you are cooking 

on. This is particularly important when baking a 

fruit pie or other foods with a high acid content. 

Hot fruit fillings or other foods that are highly 

acidic may cause pitting and damage to the 

porcelain-enamel surface and should be wiped up 

immediately.

The convection system uses a fan to circulate 

the heat evenly within the oven. Improved heat 

distribution allows for even cooking and excellent 

results while cooking with single or multiple racks.

Touch 

Conv. Bake or Conv. Roast. The display 

flashes 350 °F.

Set the oven temperature: touch 

3, 7 and 5.

Touch 

Start. The display shows Conv. Bake or 

Conv. Roast and the oven temperature starting 

at 100 °F.

As the oven preheats, the display shows increasing 

temperatures in 5-degree increments. Once the oven 

reaches the set adjusted temperature, a tone sounds 

and the oven light flashes on and off. The display 

shows the auto converted oven temperature, 350 °F 

and the fan icon.

When cooking has finished or to cancel, touch 

Clear/Off.

The oven fan runs while convection baking. The 

fan stops when the door is open. In some cases, 

the fan may shut off during a convection bake 

cycle.

 

•

Use Convection Bake for faster and more even 

multiple-rack cooking of pastries, cookies, muffins, 

biscuits, and breads of all kinds.

 

•

Bake cookies and biscuits on pans with no sides 

or very low sides to allow heated air to circulate 

around the food. Food baked on pans with a dark 

finish will cook faster.

 

•

When using Convection Bake with a single rack, 

place the oven rack in position 3. If cooking on 

multiple racks, place the oven racks in positions 1 

and 3 (for two racks).

 

•

Multiple oven rack cooking may slightly increase 

cook times for some foods.

 

•

Cakes, cookies and muffins have better results 

when using multiple racks.

The Convection Roast feature is designed to give 

optimum roasting performance. Convection Roast 

combines cooking with the convection fan to roast 

meats and poultry. The heated air circulates around 

the food from all sides, sealing in juices and flavors. 

Foods are crispy brown on the outside while staying 

moist on the inside. Convection roasting is especially 

good for large tender cuts of meat, uncovered.

Tips for Convection Roasting
Use a broiler pan and grid when preparing meats for 

convection roasting. The broiler pan catches grease 

spills and the grid helps prevent grease splatters.

Place the oven rack on the bottom.

Place the grid in the broiler pan.

Place the broiler pan on the oven rack.

•

Do not use a broiler pan without a grid.

 

•

Do not cover the grid with aluminum foil.

 

•

Position food (fat side up) on the grid.
