Bake; Convection Bake (Some Models); Convection Multi-Rack - Bosch 500 Serie Mode D'emploi

Bake

Bake is cooking with dry, heated air.
Both the upper and lower elements
%
cycle to maintain the oven
temperature.
The Bake mode can be used to prepare a variety of food
items, from pastries to casseroles. Refer to recipe or
package directions for oven temperature and baking time.
Tips
• Preheat the oven if the recipe recommends it.
• Baking time will vary with the size, shape and finish of
the bakeware. Dark metal pans or nonstick coatings
will cook faster with darker results. Insulated bakeware
will lengthen the cook time for most foods.
• For best results, bake food on a single rack with at
least 1 to 1 1/2 " space between pans or dishes and the
oven walls.
• Eliminate heat loss from the oven by using the window
to periodically check food for doneness instead of
opening the door.
• If multiple racks are necessary, use a maximum of 2
racks. For cookies, use rack positions 2 and 4.
Convection Bake
Convection Bake is similar to Bake.
Heat comes from the upper and lower
2
heating elements. The main
difference in convection baking is that
the heat is circulated throughout the
oven by the convection fan.
The Convection Bake mode is well suited for cakes, bar
cookies and breads to take advantage of the bottom heat,
yielding a better crust on baked items.
The benefits of Convection Bake include:
• Slight decrease in cook time.
• Greater volume (yeast items rise higher).
Tips
• Place food in shallow, uncovered pans such as cookie
sheet without sides.
• If baking more than one pan on a rack, allow at least 1"
to 1 1/2" of air space around the pan. Stagger pans so
that one is not directly above the other (see graphic
below).
• For cakes use rack positions 2 and 5.

Convection Multi-Rack

Multi-Rack mode cooks with heat
from a third element behind the back
:
wall of the oven. The heat is
circulated throughout the oven by the
convection fan.
The Convection Multi-rack mode is well suited for cooking
individual serving-sized foods such as cookies and biscuits.
It is also good for cooking on multiple racks (2 or 3) at the
same time. Baking cookies is possible on 6 racks
simultaneously. In this case, the baking time increases
slightly.
The benefits of Multi-Rack include:
• Even browning.
• Time savings as a result of using multiple racks at one
time.
Tips
• Reduce recipe temperature by 25° F if Auto Convection
Conversion is not activated.
• Place food in low-sided, uncovered pans such as
cookie sheet without sides.
• If baking more than one pan on a rack, allow at least 1"
to 1 1/2" of air space around the pan. Stagger pans so
that one is not directly above the other (see graphic
below).
