Oven Temperature Control The oven provides accurate temperatures; however, it may cook faster or slower than your previous oven, so the temperature calibration can be adjusted. It can be changed in Fahrenheit or Celsius. Temperature adjustment applies to upper or lower ovens. A minus sign means the oven will be cooler by the displayed amount. The absence of a minus sign means the oven will be warmer by the displayed amount. Use the following chart as a guide.

OVEN USE Odors and smoke are normal when the oven is used the first few times, or when it is heavily soiled. Preheat is recommended for cooking most foods. Food should be placed in the oven when the preheat beep occurs. Some modes use elaborate cycling to achieve best performance. If the oven temperature is increased after the oven is preheated, make sure the oven is preheated to the new temperature before food is put into the oven. If food is in the oven during preheat, it may become over cooked. IMPORTANT: The health of some birds is extremely sensitive to the fumes given off. Exposure to the fumes may result in death to certain birds. Always move birds to another closed and wellventilated room. Aluminum Foil IMPORTANT: To avoid permanent damage to the oven bottom finish, do not line the oven bottom with any type of foil, liner or cookware. ■ For best cooking results, do not cover entire rack with foil because air must be able to move freely. ■ To catch spills, place foil on rack below dish. Make sure foil is at least ¹⁄₂" (1.3 cm) larger than the dish and that it is turned up at the edges. 10
