Elmira Stove Works 1955 Range User Manual


 
For Proper Cooking,
Follow These Guidelines:
When using one rack, place the rack so the top of the
food
will be centered in the oven.
When using two racks, place racks in positions 3 and 1
(the closest to the oven bottom).
Use only one cookie sheet in the oven at a time when
using the regular Bake setting.
Rack Placement for Specific Foods:
(For rack positions, see “Rack Positions” on page 19.)
Using
Aluminum Foil in the Oven
Do not use aluminum foil for convection cooking.
Aluminum foil may block airflow.
Do not cover the broiler grid with foil. Poor drainage of
g
rease may result in a fire.
When using aluminum foil for non-convection cooking to
c
atch spillovers from pies or casseroles, follow these
instructions.
Place the foil on the oven rack below the rack with
the food.
Turn foil edges up and make sure foil is about
1 inch (2.5 cm) larger all around than the dish holding
the food.
Do not cover the entire rack with aluminum foil. It
will reduce air circulation and cause poor cooking
results.

ycle operates with the easy-to-use clock
