2.Turn the oven temp control knob (See Fig. 1) to the desired oven temperature (See Fig. 2).
3.Preheat the oven for 10 to 12 minutes before baking. Preheating is not necessary when roasting, cooking casseroles or broiling most foods.
4.When cooking is finished, turn the oven temp control knob to OFF.
IMPORTANT
Dark or dull pans absorb more heat than shiny bakeware resulting in dark or overbrowning of foods. It may be necessary to reduce the oven temperature or cook time to prevent overbrowning of some foods. Dark pans are recommended for pies. Shiny pans are recommended for cakes, cookies and muffins.
