NOTE:
Before baking or broiling for the first time, the oven and
broiler should be turned on separately to burn off the
manufacturing oils. Turn the oven on to 450 degrees F.
for 20 to 30 minutes; then turn the broiler to “Broil” for
the same length of time. You may wish to turn on the
ventilator above your range during this time.
BAKE MODE TIPS:
Preheating the Oven—Many foods such as meat, poultry,
casseroles, or other long cooking foods cook well without
preheating the oven. See your recipe for preheating the
oven. Preheating is achieved in 10 to 15 minutes,
depending on the temperature setting.
getting the best results
Minimize opening the door, Use a minute timer; use the
interior oven lights.
Choose the right size utensil: use the utensil
recommended in the recipe.
Store the broiler pans outside the ovens. An extra pan
without food affects the browning and cooking.
The type of pan affects the browning:
• For tender, golden brown crusts, use light,
non-stick/anodized or shiny metal utensils.
• For brown crisp crusts, use dark non-stick/anodized
or dark, dull metal utensils or glass bake-ware. These
may require lowering the bake temperature 25
degrees F.
setting the oven:
Set temperature on Gas Thermostat Dial:
The bake burner flame lights in 60 to 90 seconds.
The flame cycles off when the selected temperature
is reached, then cycles on again to maintain selected
temperature.
RACK POSITIONS:
The racks are numbered 1 to 3 from the bottom to the
top, like an elevator. One or two racks of food can be
cooked in the oven at the same time. Place racks in
the oven before turning it on. Position # 2 is the most
commonly used for single rack cooking. See below for
recommended rack positions.
36" or 48" (large main oven):
#3 Use this rack in combination with rack #1 for
double rack baking.
#2 Use this rack when baking single pan foods,
such as cakes, breads, pies, desserts, casseroles,
cookies, or a single rack oven meal.
#1 Use this rack for air-leavened cakes (Angel Food),
a large roast, turkey or other large food item.
UTENSILS:
type:
• Metal bake-ware (with or without a non-stick finish),
heat proof glass, glass ceramic, pottery, or other
utensils suitable for the oven
• Suitable cookie sheets that have a small lip on
one side only.
• One full commercial baking sheet (18” X 26”) in
large main oven.
• 10 X 13 inch cookie sheet.
placement:
a) Allow at least 1” of space between the pans and the
oven walls, so heat can circulate around each pan.
b) Stagger baking utensils so that one is not
directly above another. Allow 1-1/2” above and
below each pan.

CAUTION!
WHEN USING THE OVEN IN ANY MODE,
NEVER USE ALUMINUM FOIL TO COVER
THE OVEN RACKS OR TO LINE THE OVEN.
IT CAN DAMAGE THE OVEN LINER IF
HEAT IS TRAPPED UNDER IT.
