Aluminum Foil
You can use aluminum foil to line the
broiler pan and broiler grid. However,
you must mold the foil tightly to the grid
and cut slits in it just like the grid.
Without the slits, the foil will prevent fat
and meat juices from draining into the
broiler pan. The juices could become
hot enough to catch on fire. If you
do not cut the slits, you are essentially
frying, not broiling.
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.
A smaller sheet of foil may be used to
catch a spillover by placing it on a lower
shelf several inches below the food.
Cut slits in the foil just like the grid.
Using the oven.
To avoid possible burns, place the shelves in the desired position before you turn the oven on.
Position of Oven Shelves
Arrange the oven shelf or shelves in the
desired locations while the oven is cool.
The correct shelf position depends on
the kind of food and the browning
desired. As a general rule, place most
foods in the middle of the oven, on
either position
B
or
C.
See the chart for suggested shelf positions.
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.
The oven has 4 shelf positions.

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.
To preheat, set the oven at the correct temperature.
The control will beep when the oven is preheated
and the display will show your set temperature.
This may take approximately 10 minutes.
Baking results will be better if baking pans
are centered in the oven as much as
possible. Pans should not touch each
other or the walls of the oven. If you need
to use two shelves, stagger the pans so one
is not directly above the other, and leave
approximately 1
1
⁄
2
″
between pans, from
the front, back and sides of the wall.
Do not place foods directly on the
oven floor.
