OVEN USE

Odors and smoke are normal when the oven is used the first few times, or when it is heavily soiled.

IMPORTANT: The health of some birds is extremely sensitive to the fumes given off. Exposure to the fumes may result in death to certain birds. Always move birds to another closed and well- ventilated room.

AluminumFoil

IMPORTANT: To avoid permanent damage to the oven bottom finish, do not line the oven bottom with any type of foil, liners or cookware.

On those models with bottom vents, 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 ¹⁄₂" (1.3 cm) larger than the dish and that it is turned up at the edges.

Positioning RacksandBakeware

IMPORTANT: To avoid permanent damage to the porcelain finish, do not place food or bakeware directly on the oven door or bottom.

RACKS

Position racks before turning the oven on. Do not move racks with bakeware on them. Make sure racks are level. For best performance, cook on one rack. Place the rack so the top of food will be centered in the oven. To move a rack, pull it out to the stop position, raise the front edge, then lift out.
