OVEN COOKING TIPS
It is normal to have some odor when using
your oven for the first time. This is caused by
the heating of new parts and insulation.
To help eliminate this odor, ventilate the
room by opening a window or using a
vent hood.
Let the oven preheat thoroughly when recipes
call for preheating. Preheating is bringing the
temperature up to the temperature you will be
using during baking. When the oven has
reached the preheat temperature, the
indicator light will turn off. Have foods nearby
ready to place in the oven.
IMPORTANT:
Never cover the
oven bottom or oven
rack with aluminum
foil. Improper use
can cause poor heat
flow, poor baking
results, and may
damage the oven
finish.
In the back of the oven you will notice a small
tube. This is a heat sensor that maintains the
temperature of the oven. Never move or bend
this tube.

The oven vent is located under the right rear
element. This area could become very hot
during oven use. The vent is important for
proper air circulation. Never block this
vent.
