USING YOUR RANGE

For best air circulation

Hot air must circulate around the pans in the oven for even heat to reach all parts of the oven. This results in better baking.

•Place the pans so that one is not directly over the other.

•For best results, allow 11⁄2 to 2 inches of space around each pan and between pans and oven walls.

•Use only one cookie sheet in the oven at a time.

Use the following as a guide to determine where to place the pans:

1 pan

Place in the center of the oven rack.

2 pans

Place in opposite corners of the oven rack.

3 or 4 pans

Place in opposite corners on each oven rack. Stagger pans so no pan is directly over another.

Using aluminum foil for baking

Use aluminum foil to catch spillovers from pies or casseroles:

•Place the foil on the oven rack below the rack with the food. Turn up foil edges and make sure foil is about 1 inch larger all around than the dish holding the food.

•Do not cover the entire rack with alumi- num foil. It will reduce air circulation and cause poor cooking results.

•Do not line oven bottom with foil or other liners. It could affect the quality of your baking.
