Using Your Oven
Before Using Your Oven
1. Look at the controls. Be sure
you understand how to set them
properly. Read over the directions
for the Automatic Oven Timer so
you understand its use with the
controls.
2. Check oven interior. Look at
the shelves. Take a practice run at
removing and replacing them
properly, to give sure, sturdy
support.
3. Read over information and tips
that follow.
4. Keep this book handy so you can
refer to it, especially during the
first weeks of getting acquainted
with your range.

PREHEATING the oven, even to
high temperature settings, is speedy
—rarely more than about 10 minutes.
Preheat the oven only when
necessary. Most foods will cook
satisfactorily without preheating.
If you find preheating is necessary,
keep an eye on the indicator light
and put food in the oven promptly
after the light goes out.
Oven Interior Shelves
The shelves are designed with
locks so that when placed correctly
on the shelf
they (a) will-
stop before coming completely
from the oven, and (b) will not tilt
when removing food from or
placing food on them.
