Safety Instructions Using the baking feature. Your oven temperature is controlled very accurately using an oven control system. It is recommended that you operate the oven for a number of weeks using the time given on recipes as a guide to become familiar with your new oven's performance. If you think an adjustment is necessary, see the Adjust the Oven Thermostat section. It lists easy Do It Yourself instructions on how to adjust the thermostat. How to Set Your Oven for Baking To avoid possible burns, place the shelves in the correct position before you turn the oven on. Touch the BAKE pad. Touch the + or - pad to set the oven temperature. Touch the START pad. When the oven starts to heat, the changing temperature will be in the display. (The display starts changing once the temperature reaches 100°F.) To change the oven temperature during the Bake cycle, touch the BAKE pad and set the new temperature. Touch the CLEAR/OFF pad when the baking is finished. NOTE: A cooling fan may automatically turn on and off to cool internal parts. This is normal, and the fan may continue to run even after the oven is turned off. Operating Instructions Troubleshooting Tips Oven Shelves Arrange the oven shelf or shelves in the desired locations while the oven is cool. The correct shelf position depends on the kind of food and the browning desired. As a general rule, place most foods in the middle of the oven, on either shelf position B or C. See the chart for suggested shelf positions. Type of Food Angel food cake Frozen pies (on cookie sheet) Bundt or pound cakes Roasting Biscuits, muffins, brownies, cookies, cupcakes, layer cakes, pies, pie shells Casseroles Shelf Position A A, B or C A or B A or B B or C B or C Preheating Preheat the oven if the recipe calls for it. Preheat means bringing the oven up to the specified temperature before putting the food in the oven. To preheat, set the oven at the correct temperature-selecting a higher temperature does not shorten preheat time. Preheating is necessary for good results when baking cakes, cookies, pastry and breads. For most casseroles and roasts, preheating is not necessary. For ovens without a preheat indicator light or tone, preheat 10 minutes. After the oven is preheated, place the food in the oven as quickly as possible to prevent heat from escaping. Aluminum Foil Never entirely cover a shelf with aluminum foil. This will disturb the heat circulation and result in poor baking. A smaller sheet of foil may be used to catch a spillover by placing it on a lower shelf several inches below the food. 16 Consumer Support
