OVEN USE
Odors and smoke are normal when the appliance is new. This happens the first time the oven is used or when the oven is heavily soiled.
During oven use, the heating elements will not remain on, but will cycle on and off throughout oven operation.
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.
■Do not cover food with aluminum foil when convection cooking (on some models).
Positioning Racks and Bakeware
IMPORTANT: Never place food or bakeware directly on the oven door or bottom. Permanent damage will occur to the porcelain finish.
RACKS
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.
