Performance problems often result
from little things you can find and fix
without tools of any kind.
If nothlng operates:

into a live circuit with the proper volt-

Cleaning oven flnlsh:

gradually reduce oven soil
during
normal baking or roasting. It is not
designed to keep your oven spot-
less, only presentably clean.
l If you broil often, you may see oven
soil.

walls. Soil will be more visible on the
door than other areas in the oven.
See page 23 for how to clean.

Keep foil on oven bottom to
catch these spills.

too low or too high? See page 14.

oven as the recipe calls fofl
l Are you following a tested recipe
from a reliable source?
l Are you using pans recommended
in the “Cookware” section on
page 6?

inches (4-5 cm) on all sides of the
pans for air circulation?

recipe?
