Preheating and Pan Placement
Preheat the oven if the recipe calls fin" it.
Preheating is necessa_ T for good results
when baking cakes, cookies, past_ T and
breads.
Topreheat,set the ovenat the correcttemperature.
Thecontrol will beep when the ovenis preheated
and the display will show yourset temperature.
This will take approximately 10-15 minutes.
Baking results will be better if baking
pans are centered in the oven as much
as possible. Pans should not touch each
other or the walls of the oven. If w)u
need to use two shelves, stagger the pans
so one is not directly above the other;
and leave approximately 1½" between
pans, fi'om the fi'ont, back and sides of
the wall.

Aluminum Foil
You (an use aluminum toil to line the
broiler
pan and broiler
grid. Howe_e_;
you must mold the fi)il tighfl) to the grid
and cut slits in it just like the grid.
Without the slits, the toil will prevent fi_t
and meat juices fl'om draining into the
broiler pan. The juices could become
hot enough to catch on fire. If w)u
do not cut the slits, you are essentially
flTing, not broiling.
Donot use aluminum foil on the bottom of
the oven.
Never entirely cover a shelf with
aluminum fifil. This will disturb the heat
circulation and result in poor baking.
A smaller sheet of fi)il may be used to
catch a spillover
by placing
it on a lower
shelf several inches below the fl)od.
