SOLVING BAKING AND ROASTING PROBLEMS
With either Bake or Convection Bake and Convection Roast poor results can occur
for many reasons other than a malfunction of the oven. Check the chart below for
causes of the most common problems. Since the size, shape and material of baking
utensils directly affect the baking results, the best solution may be to replace old
baking utensils that have darkened and warped with age and use. Check the Baking
Charts.

Food is dry or has shrunk
excessively
