Cooking Recommendations
Cooking Conditions
Conditions in your kitchen can affect the performance of your appliance when cooking food.
Condition
Aging cookware
As pans age and become discolored, cooking
times may need to be reduced slightly.
High altitude
Air is drier and air pressure is lower.
Water boils at a lower temperature, and liquids
evaporate faster.
Foods may take longer to bake.
Doughs may rise faster.
Cooking Results: Small adjustments may fix a problem with food not being as done as you like.
Result
Food too light
Use the middle to maximum cook time recommended on packaging or recipe.
Food too dark

Cooking Tips: Use these additional tips to get the best results from your appliance.
Cooking
Rack placement
Follow the instructions in
so the food is in the center of the oven.
Preheat
Fully preheat the oven before baking items like cookies, cakes, biscuits and breads. Insert food immediately
after the beep.
Checking food
Use the window and oven light when checking food. Opening the door may reduce baking performance.
Food placement
Allow at least 2 inches (5 cm) of space between bakeware for proper air circulation.
Broiling pan
For best results when broiling, use a broil pan with a broil pan insert designed to drain the fat from the food,
help avoid spatter, and reduce smoking. The broiler pan will catch grease spills, and the insert helps prevent
grease splatters.
Note: If a broiler pan and insert are not supplied with this appliance, they may be purchased from Sears.
Call 1-844-553-6667 and order broiler pan kit 5304442087.
