Before you begin
Clean the oven thoroughly before using it for the first time. Then, remove the
accessories, set the oven to bake, and then run the oven at 400 °F for 1 hour. There
will be a distinctive odor. This is normal.
Ensure your kitchen is well ventilated during this conditioning period.
Energy saving tips
•
During cooking, the oven door should remain closed except when you turn
food over.
Do not open the door frequently during cooking to maintain the oven
temperature and to save energy.
•
If cooking time is more than 30 minutes, you can switch the oven off
5-10 minutes before the end of the cooking time to save energy. The residual
heat will complete the cooking process.
•
To save energy and reduce the time needed for reheating the oven, plan oven
use to avoid turning the oven off between cooking one item and the next.
•
Whenever possible, cook more than one item at a time.
