PROBLEM Oven cooking results not what expected POSSIBLE CAUSES Range is not level. The temperature set was incorrect. Oven temperature is calibrated incorrectly. Oven was not preheated. Racks were positioned improperly. Not enough air circulation around bakeware Batter distributed unevenly in pan Darker browning of food caused by dull or dark bakeware Lighter browning of food caused by shiny or light colored bakeware Incorrect length of cooking time was used. Oven door was not closed. Oven door was opened during cooking. Rack is too close to bake burner, making baked items too brown on bottom. Pie crusts browning too quickly Temperature scale was changed from Fahrenheit to Celsius. SOLUTIONS Level the range. See the Installation Instructions. Double-check the recipe in a reliable cookbook. See "Oven Temperature Control" in the "Electronic Oven Controls" section. See "Baking and Roasting" section. See "Positioning Racks and Bakeware" section. See "Positioning Racks and Bakeware" section. Check that batter is level in the pan. Lower oven temperature 25°F (15°C) or move rack to a higher position in the oven. Move rack to a lower position in the oven. Adjust cooking time. Be sure that the bakeware does not keep the door from closing. Oven peeking releases oven heat and can result in longer cooking times. Move rack to higher position in the oven. Use aluminum foil to cover the edge of the crust and/or reduce baking temperature. Foods are overdone or burnt even at low temperatures. See "Fahrenheit and Celsius" in the "Electronic Oven Controls" section. ACCESSORIES For accessories, you can visit our website at www.maytag.com/cookingaccessories.
