HIGH ALTITUDE BAKING
Recipes and baking times vary if you are baking at a high altitude. For accurate information write to the Agriculture Extension Service, Colorado State University, Fort Collins, Colorado 80521. Specify the type of information and the baking mode (convection bake or bake) you need i.e. cakes, cookies, breads, etc. There may be a cost for the bulletins.

To Get the Best Results
Defrost the food before starting to cook.
Leave the door ajar at the broil stop. NEVER “OPEN DOOR BROIL” WITH CHILDREN NEARBY.
NOTE: If the door is closed during broiling, the oven cavity may get hot enough to cycle the broil element on and off, producing food that tastes baked/roasted instead of broiled.
Set a minute timer for the minimum time to check the food. Steaks should be at least one inch thick if a rare doneness is desired. It is difficult to get rare with meat that is thinner, or to get a nice brown piece of meat.
After half the total cooking time, turn the food over only once. It is not necessary to turn over thin foods (filet of fish, ham slices, etc.) Liver slices must be turned over.
When top browning, use metal or
NOTE: You cannot use the broiler burner and the bake burner at the same time. When one is on, the other cannot be turned on. Do not use the convection fan in the broil mode.
