Tips and Troubleshooting Tips • When using the black ceramic-coated baking pan, temperature should be set 25 degrees lower than recipe directions. • Never place glass baking pans or casserole dishes in a countertop oven or toaster oven. Check pan manufacturer's directions for oven-safe rating. Troubleshooting • Do not cover crumb tray or any part of the oven with metal foil. This will cause overheating of the oven. Use of metal foil to cover a casserole during cooking is acceptable. IF YOU LIVE IN A HIGH-ALTITUDE AREA: The Extension service will have detailed information about cooking for your area.
