Baking 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.
See the Cookware Tips section for information on suggested cookware.

Always use the shelf in its “low” position when baking.
The shelf is required for good air circulation and even browning.
