GENERAL OVEN TIPS
Preheating the Oven
Preheat the oven when using the Bake,
Convection Bake and Convection Roast
modes.
Use fast preheat mode when a short time is
requested to preheat the oven.
Selecting a higher temperature does not
shorten the preheat time.·
Preheating is necessary for good results
when baking cakes, cookies, pastry and
breads.·
Preheating will help to sear roasts and seal in
meat juices.·
Place oven racks in their proper position
before preheating.·
During preheat, the selected cooking
temperature is always displayed.
A beep will confirm that the oven is preheated
and the preheat light will turn off.
Fast Preheat can be used when time is
crucial.
Operational Suggestions
Use the cooking charts as a guide.
Do not set pans on the open oven door.·
Use the interior oven light to view the food
through the oven door window rather than
opening the door frequently.
Utensils
Glass baking dishes absorb heat. Reduce
oven temperature 15 °C (25 °F) when baking
in glass.
Use pans that give the desired browning. The
type of finish on the pan will help determine
the amount of browning that will occur.
Shiny, smooth metal or light non-stick /
anodized pans reflect heat, resulting in lighter,
more delicate browning. Cakes and cookies
require this type of utensil.
Dark, rough or dull pans will absorb heat
resulting in a browner, crisper crust. Use this
type for pies.
For brown, crisp crusts, use dark non-stick /
anodized or dark, dull metal utensils or glass
bake ware. Insulated baking pans may
increase the length of cooking time.
Do not cook with the empty broiler pan in the
oven, as this could change cooking
performance. Store the broil pan outside of
the oven.
Oven Condensation and Temperature·
It is normal for a certain amount of moisture to
evaporate from the food during any cooking
process. The amount depends on the moisture
content of the food. The moisture may
condense on any surface cooler than the inside
of the oven, such as the control panel.
Your new oven has an electronic temperature
sensor that accurately maintains the
temperature selected. Your previous oven may
have had a mechanical thermostat that drifted
gradually over time to a higher temperature. It is
normal that you may need to adjust your
favourite recipes when cooking in a new oven.
High Altitude Baking
When cooking at high altitude, recipes and
cooking time will vary from the standard.
Oven Racks·
The oven has rack guides at four levels as
shown in the illustration on Page 4.
Rack positions are numbered from the bottom
rack guide (#1) to the top (#4).
Check cooking charts for best rack positions
to use when cooking.
Each level guide consists of paired supports
formed in the walls on each side of the oven
cavity.
Always be sure to position the oven racks
before turning on the oven. Make sure that
the racks are level once they are in position.
To remove oven rack from the oven, pull rack
forward, lift rack up at front and then remove it.
Make sure you do not force oven racks to avoid
damage to the enamel.
To replace an oven rack:
1. Place rear of rack between rack level guides.
2. While lifting front of rack, slide rack in all the
way while lowering the front.
Please refer to illustration on Page 5 if there is
any question as to which side is the front of the
rack.
The racks are designed to stop when pulled
forward to their limit.
CAUTION! Never use aluminum foil to cover
the oven racks or to line the oven. It can
cause damage to the oven liner if heat is
trapped under the foil.
