Using the oven.

To avoid possible burns, place the shelves in the desired position before you turn the oven on.
The oven has 7 shelf positions.
Center baking pans in the oven.

Before you begin...

The shelves have stop-locks, so that when
placed correctly on the shelf supports (A
through G), they will stop before coming
completely out, and will not tilt.
When placing and removing cookware,
pull the shelf out to the bump on the
shelf support.
To remove a shelf, pull it toward you, tilt
the front end up and pull it out.
To replace, place the end of the shelf
(stop-locks) on the support, tilt up the
front and push the shelf in.
How to Set the Oven for Baking or Roasting
Your oven is not designed for open-door cooking.
Touch the BAKE pad.
Touch the + or – pads until the
desired temperature is displayed.
Touch the START/ON pad.
The oven will start automatically. The display
will show PRE while preheating. When the
oven reaches the selected temperature, the
oven control will beep several times and the
display will show the oven temperature.
To change the oven temperature during BAKE
cycle, touch the BAKE pad and then the + or –
pads to get the new temperature.
Check food for doneness at minimum
time on recipe. Cook longer if necessary.
Preheating and Pan Placement
Preheat the oven if the recipe calls for it.
Preheating is necessary for good results
when baking cakes, cookies, pastry and
breads.
The Display will show "PRE" while preheating.
When the oven reaches the selected temperature,
the oven control will beep and the display will
show the oven temperature.
Aluminum Foil
Do not use aluminum foil on the bottom
of the oven.
Never entirely cover a shelf with
aluminum foil. This will disturb the heat
circulation and result in poor baking.
CAUTION:
When you are using the
shelf in the lowest position (A), you will need to
use caution when pulling the shelf out. We
recommend that you pull the shelf out several
inches and then, using two pot holders, pull the
shelf out by holding the sides of it. The shelf is
low and you could be burned if you place your
hand in the middle of the shelf and pull all the
way out. Be very careful not to burn your hand
on the door when using the shelf in the lowest
position (A).
Touch the CLEAR/OFF pad when
baking is finished and then remove
the food from the oven.
Type of Food
Frozen pies (on cookie sheet)
Angel food cake
Bundt or pound cakes
Biscuits, muffins, brownies,
cookies, cupcakes,
layer cakes, pies
Casseroles

Baking results will be better if baking
pans are centered in the oven as much
as possible. If baking with more than one
pan, place the pans so each has at least
" of air space around it. If baking

four cake layers at the same time, place
two layers on rack B and two layers on
rack D. Stagger pans on the rack so one
is not directly above the other.
A smaller sheet of foil may be used to
catch a spillover by placing it on a lower
shelf several inches below the food.
