Energy saving tips

Although the energy used for cooking is usually a very small percentage of the total energy used in the home, cooking energy can be used efficiently. Here are some tips to help you save energy when using your cooking product:

l Preheat only when recommended and for the shortest time possible.

l “Oven peeking” may cause heat loss, longer cooking times, and unsatisfactory baking results. Rely on your timer to keep track of the cooking time.

l

Bake cakes, pies, or cookies when oven is warm. Best time to bake is right after a meal has been cooked in oven.

Plan your meals for the most efficient use of the oven. When using the oven to cook one food, try to cook the rest of the meal in it also.

Do not preheat when broiling, roasting, or cooking items such as casseroles.

Using the electronic MEALTIMER* control

The electronic MEALTIMER control will turn the oven on and off at times you set, even when you are not around.

Delayed time baking/roasting is ideal for foods which do not require a preheated oven, such as meats and casseroles. Do not use delayed time cooking for cakes, cookies, etc. - they will not rise properly.

This section discusses two methods for starting baking/roasting now and stopping automatically later, and three methods for starting and stopping baking/roasting automatically. Read this section carefully to choose which method(s) is best for you.

Before using the electronic MEALTIMER control, make sure the clock is set to the correct time of day. (See “Setting the clocK on page 10.)

NOTE: Displays shown are from single/ upper ovens. Command pads shown are from double ovens. In some cases, lower oven displays and single oven command pads may look different than those shown.

To start baking/roasting now and stop automatically:

Method l-Using Cook Time:

1. Prepare oven.
