POOR BAKING RESULTS

Poor baking results.

Many factors affect baking results. Make sure the proper 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 in the Electronic Oven Control section.

Flames inside the oven or smoking from vent .

Excessive spillovers in oven. Set self-clean cycle for a longer cleaning time.

Excessive spillovers in oven. This is normal, especially for pie spillovers or large amounts of grease on bottom of oven. Wipe up excessive spillovers before starting cycle. If flames or excessive smoke are present, stop the self-clean cycle and follow steps under “To Stop or Interrupt a Self-Cleaning Cycle” in the Electronic Oven Control section.
