When cooking a food for the first
time in your new oven, use the time
given on recipes as a guide. Oven
thermostats may “drift” from the
factory setting over the years, and
5-to 10-minute differences in timing
between an old and new oven are not
unusual. You might think your new

oven is not performing correctly;
however, it has been set correctly at
the factory and is more likely to be
accurate than the oven it replaced.

How to Set Your Range

for Baking

1. Place food in oven, being sure to

leave about 1“ between pans and
oven walls for good circulation of
heat. Close oven door, and avoid
frequent door openings during
baking to prevent undesirable
results.

2. Turn OVEN SET knob to
BAKE and OVEN TEMP knob
to temperature on recipe or

Baking Guide.

3. Check food for doneness at
minimum time on recipe. Cook
longer if necessary. Switch off
heat and remove foods.

How to 

 Bake

The oven timer controls are
designed to turn the oven on and

off automatically at specific times
you want baking to start and stop.

Your Time Bake options:

 Start& 

 

Oven turns on right away and turns
off automatically at your preset
stop time.

Delayed Start & Stop. Oven
automatically turns on later at
your preset start time and turns
off at your preset stop time.

Remember when setting stop time
that time-baked foods will continue
cooking after the oven turns off.

How to Set Immediate
Start and Automatic Stop

Before beginning, make sure the
range clock shows the correct time
of day.
