Notes . . .
• If more than 30 seconds elapse between pressing
a function pad and pressing a
or pad,
the display will return to the previous display.
• To recall the set temperature during preheat, press
the appropriate BAKE or CONVECT (select
models) pad. The set temperature will be dis-
played briefly and then return to the on-going
program.
• To change the oven temperature during cooking,
press the appropriate BAKE or CONVECT
(select models) and the appropriate
or
pads for the desired oven temperature.
• As a general rule when convection baking, set
the oven temperature 25
°
F lower than the con-
ventional recipe or prepared mix directions.
Times will be similar to a few minutes less than
directions.
• When convection is used to roast meats, roasting
times are generally 25-30% less. (Maintain con-
ventional roasting temperatures.)
• For additional baking, roasting and convection
cooking tips plus a roasting chart with recom-
mended roasting temperatures and times, see
“Cooking Made Simple” booklet.
Baking, Roasting and
Convection Cooking
Every oven has its own characteristics. You may find that the
cooking times and temperatures vary slightly from your old
oven. This is normal.
Oven Fans
A cooling fan will automatically turn on during cleaning,
broiling and some baking operations. It is used to help keep
internal parts on the control panel cool. The fan will automati-
cally turn off when parts have cooled. The fan may continue to
operate after the oven has been turned off. This is normal.
A convection fan (select models) is used to circulate hot air in
the oven when the convection feature is selected. It automati-
cally turns on whenever the CONVECT pad is pressed and will
turn off when CONVECT is canceled.
NOTE: The convection fan will automatically stop whenever
the oven door is opened.
