Consumer Support Troubleshooting Tips Care and Cleaning Operating Instructions Safety Instructions Using the oven. To avoid possible burns, place the racks in the desired position before you turn the oven on. Before you begin... The racks have stop-locks, so that when placed correctly on the supports, they will stop before coming completely out, and will not tilt. When placing and removing cookware, pull the rack out to the bump on the rack support. To remove a rack, pull it toward you, tilt the front end up and pull it out. To replace, place the end of the rack (stop-locks) on the support, tilt up the front and push the rack in. The oven has 4 rack positions. How to Set the Oven for Baking or Roasting Touch the BAKE pad. Touch the + or - pad to set the desired temperature. Touch the START pad. Check food for doneness at minimum time on recipe. Cook longer if necessary. Touch the CLEAR/OFF pad when cooking is complete. NOTE: The lower oven is controlled with a knob. To set the oven for baking turn the knob to the desired setting or temperature. Turn the knob to OFF when baking is complete. Type of Food Frozen pies (on cookie sheet) Angel food cake, bundt or pound cakes Biscuits, muffins, brownies, cookies, cupcakes, layer cakes, pies Casseroles Roasting Rack Position B or C A B or C B or C A or B 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. Preheating and Pan Placement Preheat the oven if the recipe calls for it. To preheat, set the oven at the correct temperature. Preheating is necessary for good results when baking cakes, cookies, pastry and breads. For ovens without a preheat indicator light or tone, preheat 10 minutes. Baking results will be better if baking pans are centered in the oven as much as possible. Pans should not touch each other or the walls of the oven. If you need to use two racks, stagger the pans so one is not directly above the other, and leave approximately 11⁄2″ between pans, from the front, back and sides of the wall. Aluminum Foil Do not use aluminum foil on the bottom of the oven. Never entirely cover a rack 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 rack several inches below the food. 6
