Recommendations
for lower oven
When placing food in the lower oven always use
a baking sheet or pan with 4 raised sides to
prevent food from sliding off.
DO NOT LINE THE OVEN DRAWER WITH
FOIL OR COVER THE OVEN RACK WITH
FOIL. This may result in damage to your oven.
The maximum height of foods and utensils that
may be used in the lower oven is 2-1/2". The
maximum width is 15". Pay close attention
to
foods that have potential to rise beyond the
recommended
2-1/2" maximum height.
Use pans in the lower oven large enough to
contain food and any juices created from the
cooking process.
Do not use plastic wrap to cover food. Plastic
may melt onto the drawer or surrounding
areas and be very difficult to clean.Use a lid or
aluminum foil instead. Use only utensils and
cookware in the oven drawer that are
recommended
for oven use in the upper oven.
For
best results
The lower oven rackmust
always be in place
when cooking or warming Be sure that the
rack is placed with the down turned sides into
the drawer -Fig. 1. This will provide for some air
space between the drawer and the food.
For best results with the lower oven, pastries,
casseroles with crumb toppings
and bakery
type items should be cooked in the upper oven.
When using the lower oven, limit the number of
times the drawer is opened; this will minimize
heat loss. Repeated opening of the drawer
during the cooking process may increase
cooking times and produce uneven cooking
results. The cooking times for the lower oven
may vary slightly from the upper oven.
