OVEN USE
IMPORTANT: Do not line the oven bottom with any type of foil,
liners or cookware because permanent damage will occur to the oven bottom finish.
•Do not block or cover the oven bottom vents.
•Do not cover entire rack with foil because air must be able to move freely for best cooking results.
•To catch spills, place foil on rack below dish. Make sure foil is at least 1 in. (2.5 cm) larger than the dish and that it is turned up at the edges.
IMPORTANT: Never place food or bakeware directly on the oven
door or bottom. Permanent damage will occur to the porcelain finish.
