How to Set the Oven for Baking or Roasting
Safety Instructions
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.

The word ON and 100° will be displayed. As the oven heats up, the display will show the changing temperature. When the oven reaches the temperature you set, a tone will sound.
To change the oven temperature during BAKE cycle, touch the BAKE pad and then the + or – pads (on some models) or the number pads (on some models) to get the new temperature.
Check food for doneness at minimum time on recipe. Cook longer if necessary.

Instructions
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.

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.
