How to Set the Oven for Baking or Roasting

Instructions Safety

The oven has a special low shelf (R) position just above the oven bottom. Use it when extra cooking space is needed, for example, when cooking a large turkey. The shelf is not designed to slide out at this position.

Your oven is not designed for open-door cooking.

Close the oven door. Turn the OVEN CONTROL knob to the desired temperature.

Check food for doneness at minimum time on recipe. Cook longer if necessary.

Turn the OVEN CONTROL knob to OFF when baking is finished and then remove the food from the oven.

Instructions Operating

Preheating and Pan Placement

Preheat the oven if the recipe calls for it. To preheat, set the oven at the correct temperature. Preheating is necessary for good results when baking cakes, cookies, pastry and breads.

For ovens without a preheat indicator light or tone, preheat 10 minutes.

Baking results will be better if baking pans are centered in the oven as much as possible. Pans should not touch each other or the walls of the oven. If you need to use two shelves, stagger the pans so one

is not directly above the other, and leave approximately 11⁄2″ between pans, from the front, back and sides of the wall.

Tips Installation

 

Aluminum Foil

 

Never cover the oven bottom with

 

aluminum foil.

 

You can use aluminum foil to line the

 

broiler pan and broiler grid. However,

 

you must mold the foil tightly to the

Cut slits in the foil just like the grid.

grid and cut slits in it just like the grid.

Aluminum foil may also be used to catch a spillover. To do so, place a small sheet of foil on a lower shelf several inches below the food.

Never entirely cover a shelf with aluminum foil. This will disturb the heat circulation and result in poor baking.

Consumer Support Troubleshooting

Oven Moisture

As your oven heats up, the temperature change of the air in the oven may cause water droplets to form on the door glass. These droplets are harmless and will evaporate as the oven continues to heat up.
