PROBLEM

Cooking results are

not what you expected

CAUSE

•The oven temperature seems too low or too high. See “Adjusting the oven

temperature control” on page 19 to adjust the oven temperature.

•You did not preheat the oven before baking (if called for in the recipe).

•You are using a pan that is not the correct type or size. Refer to a reliable

cookbook or recipe for the recommended pan type and size.

•There is not enough air space around the pan when baking. Allow 11⁄2 to

2 inches of air space on all sides of the pan.

•The cookware is too large or too small for the surface cooking area being

used. The pan should be the same size or slightly larger than the surface

cooking area being used.

•The range is not level. (See the Installation Instructions.)
