• Many factors affect baking results. Make sure the proper oven rack position

 

is used. Center food in the oven and space pans to allow air to circulate.

 

Allow the oven to preheat to the set temperature before placing food in the

 

oven. Try adjusting the recipe's recommended temperature or baking time.

 

If you feel the oven is too hot or cool, see “Adjusting Oven Temperature”

 

section in this Use & Care Guide.
