Baking or roasting uses a heating element to raise the temperature of the air inside the
oven. Any oven temperature from 225°F to 450°F may be set. A fan gently circulates this
heated air throughout the oven, over and around the food, producing golden brown
exteriors and rich, moist interiors. This circulation of heated air is called convection.
Because the heated air is kept constantly moving, not permitting a layer of cooler air to
develop around the food, some foods cook faster than in regular oven cooking.
For Best Results…
Use one shelf in the lower position and leave at least a 1-inch gap between the cooking dish and the sides of
the oven. For two-level cooking only, use both shelves.
The shelf is required for good air circulation and even browning.
See the Cookware Tips section for information on suggested cookware.

Auto Recipe ™ Conversion
When using CONVECTION BAKE, the Auto Recipe™ Conversion feature will automatically
convert entered regular baking temperatures to convection baking temperatures.
This feature is activated so that the display will show OFFSET ON and the actual converted
(reduced) temperature. For example, if you enter a regular recipe temperature of 350°F
and press the START button, the display will show the converted temperature of 325°F.
This feature can be turned off in the OPTIONS menu. See the Auto Recipe™ Conversion
Selection in the About the other features section.
NOTE: If convection baking and the Auto Recipe™ Conversion feature is turned off,
reduce the oven temperature 25°F from the recipe to prevent overbrowning on the
top of baked goods.
