What is the difference between conventional and fan oven settings on my Whirlpool oven?

Conventional (static) heating uses top and bottom heating elements without the fan, ideal for single-shelf baking like cakes and bread. Fan-assisted (convection) heating circulates hot air throughout the oven for even cooking on multiple levels. Fan cooking is typically 10-20°C more efficient, so reduce temperatures when converting from conventional recipes.
