OVEN USE

Odors and smoke are normal when the oven is used the first few times, or when it is heavily soiled.

During oven use, the heating elements will not remain on, but will cycle on and off throughout oven operation.

If the range is installed on a 208-volt circuit, the oven preheat time will be longer. Allow at least 20 minutes for the oven to preheat. During cooking, keep heat loss to a minimum by opening the oven door only when necessary.

IMPORTANT: The health of some birds is extremely sensitive to the fumes given off. Exposure to the fumes may result in death to certain birds. Always move birds to another closed and well ventilated room.

Aluminum Foil

IMPORTANT: Do not line the oven bottom with any type of foil, liners or cookware because permanent damage will occur to the oven bottom finish.

■Do not cover entire rack with foil because air must be able to move freely for best cooking results.

■To catch spills, place foil on rack below dish. Make sure foil is at least 1 in. (2.5 cm) larger than the dish and that it is turned up at the edges.

Positioning Racks andBakeware

IMPORTANT: Never place food or bakeware directly on the oven door or bottom. Permanent damage will occur to the porcelain finish.

RACKS

NOTES:

■Position racks before turning the oven on.

■Do not move racks with bakeware on them.

■Make sure racks are level.

To move a rack, pull it out to the stop position, raise the front edge, then lift out. Use the following illustration and chart as a guide.
