Oven Shelves - Hotpoint RB787 Use And Care Manual

Do not lock the oven door with the latch during baking. The latch is
used for self-cleaning only.
Your oven temperature is controlled very accurately using an oven control
system. We recommend that you operate the range for a number of weeks
using the time given on recipes as a guide to become familiar with your new
oven's performance. If you think an adjustment is necessary, see the Adjust
the Oven Thermostat section. It lists easy Do It Yourself instructions on how
to adjust the thermostat.
NOTE: When the oven is hot, the top and outside surfaces of the range
get hot too.
How to Set Your Range for Baking
To avoid possible burns, place the shelves in the
correct position before you turn the oven on.
1. Turn the Oven Temperature knob to the
temperature you desire. The OVEN ON indicator
light will glow when the Oven Temperature knob
is turned on.

Oven Shelves

Arrange the oven
shelf or shelves in
the desired locations
while the oven is
cool. The correct
shelf position
depends on the kind
of food and the
browning desired.
As a general rule,
place most foods in the middle of the oven, on either
shelf position B or C. See the chart for suggested shelf
positions.

2. When the temperature inside the oven reaches the set

then remove the foods.
