Baking Pans and Dishes ▯ Glass baking dishes absorb heat. Some cookware manufacturers recommend reducing the temperature 25° F when using this type of dish. Follow manufacturers' recommendations. ▯ Use pans that provide the desired browning. For tender, light, golden brown crusts, use light, anodized or shiny metal bakeware. ▯ Dark, rough or dull pans (nonstick or anodized) will absorb heat and result in a browner, crisper crust. Some manufacturers recommend reducing the temperature 25° F when using this type of pan. Follow manufacturers' recommendations. ▯ Insulated cookie sheets or bakeware may increase the length of cooking time. ▯ Do not set broil pans or any other heavy object on the open oven door. ▯ Do not keep the empty broil pan in the oven during cooking as this changes cooking performance. Store the broil pan outside the oven. High Altitude Baking When cooking at high altitudes, recipes and cooking times will vary. Condensation It is normal for certain amount of moisture to evaporate from the food during any cooking process. The amount depends on the moisture content of the food. The moisture may condense on any surface cooler than the inside of the oven, such as the control panel. Before First Use Before you can use your new appliance, you must enter certain settings. You must also clean the oven cavity and accessories. Before Using the Appliance for the First Time ▯ Appliance must be properly installed by a qualified technician before use. ▯ Remove all packing materials from inside and outside the oven. ▯ While cool, wipe with a clean, damp cloth and dry. ▯ There may be a slight odor from your new appliance; this is normal and will disappear after a short time. ▯ Optimum cooking results depend on proper cookware being used. ▯ Read and understand all safety precautions and Use and Care Manual information.

If your water is very hard, we recommend that you use
softened water.
If you only use softened water, you can set the water
hardness range to "softened" in this case.
If you use mineral water, set the water hardness range
to "4 very hard".
If you use mineral water, you must only use non-
carbonated mineral water.
