Getting the Most Out of Your Appliance

General Tips

Pan Placement

Baking results are better if pans are placed in the center of the oven. If baking more than one pan on a rack, allow at least 1" to 1 ½" of air space around the pan. When baking four cake layers at the same time, stagger pans on two racks so that one pan is not directly above the other.

Aluminum Foil

WARNING:

Do not use aluminum foil or protective liners to line any part of the appliance, especially the oven bottom. Installation of these liners may result in a risk of electric shock or fire.

Preheating the Oven

For Best Results

Baking Pans and Dishes

High Altitude Baking

Place oven racks in desired position before heating the oven.

Preheat the oven when using the Bake, Convection Bake, True Convection, Pizza, Pie, Broil, Convection Broil, and Warm modes.

Preheat is not used for Speed Convection, Roast, Convection Roast, Proof, and Dehydrate modes.

Allow oven to preheat while preparing recipe ingredients or food items.

Setting a higher temperature does not shorten preheat time.

Once oven is preheated, place food in the oven as quickly as possible to minimize the loss of heat and reduction of oven temperature.

Use Fast Preheat to speed up preheating.

Use the cooking recommendations as a guide.

Use the interior oven light to view the food through the oven window rather than opening the door frequently.

Use the Timer to keep track of cooking times.

Open the door as briefly as possible to avoid temperature reduction.

Glass baking dishes absorb heat. Some manufacturers recommend reducing the temperature 25 ºF when using this type of dish. Follow manufacturers' recommendations.

Use pans that provide the desired browning. For tender, light, golden, brown crusts, use light, anodized or shiny metal bakeware.

Dark, rough or dull pans (nonstick or anodized) will absorb heat and result in a browner, crisper crust. Some manufacturers recommend reducing the temperature 25 ºF when using this type of pan. Follow manufacturers' recommendations.

Insulated cookie sheets or bakeware may increase the length of cooking time.

Do not set broil pans or any other heavy object on the open oven door.

Do not keep the empty broil pan in the oven during cooking as this could change cooking performance. Store the broil pan outside the oven.

When cooking at high altitudes, recipes and cooking times will vary.
