Using the oven controls
Baking 1. Position the rack(s) properly before turning on the oven. To change rack position, pull rack out to stop, raise front edge and lift out. The rack(s) should be placed so the top of the food will be centered in the oven. Always leave at least 1 l/2 to 2 inches (4-5 cm) between the sides of the pan and the oven walls and other pans. 2. Set the Oven Temp Control to the baking temperature you want. The oven burner will automatically light in 50-60 seconds. 3. Preheat the oven for 10 minutes. Put food in the oven. NOTE: Do not place food directly on the oven bottom

Does your oven seem hotter or colder than your old oven? The temperature of your old oven may have shifted gradually without you noticing the change. Your new oven is properly adjusted to provide accurate temperatures. But, when compared to your old oven, the new design may give you different results. If, after using the oven for a period of time, you are not safisfied with the temperature settings, they can be adjusted by following these steps: 1. Pull the broiler drawer open and tilt the door panel down.

Burn Hazard When the oven is ON, pans and pan handles left near the oven vent can become hot enough to bum the user and to melt plastics. Use potholders to move pans. Never store plastics, paper or other items that could melt or burn near the oven vent, or any of the surface burners.
