Oven Baking
For best cooking results, preheat the oven before baking cookies, breads, cakes, pies, pastries, etc. There is no need to
preheat the oven for roasting meat or baking casseroles. The cooking times and temperatures needed to bake a product
may vary slightly from your previously owned appliance.
