Baking
When cooking a food for the first
time in your new oven, use time
given on recipes as a guide. Oven
thermostats, over a period of years,
may “drift” from the factory
setting and a difference in timing
between an old and a new oven of
5 to 10 minutes is not unusual. You
may be inclined to think that the
new oven is not performing
correctly. However, your new oven
has been set correctly at the factory
and is more apt to be accurate than
the oven it replaced.
How to Set Your Range
for Baking
Step 1: Place food in oven, being
certain to leave about 1 inch of
space between pans and walls of
oven for good circulation of heat.
Close oven door. During baking,
avoid frequent door openings to
prevent undesirable results.
Step 2: Turn OVEN SET knob to
BAKE and OVEN TEMP knob to
temperature on recipe or on
Baking Guide.
Step 3: Check food for doneness
at minimum time on recipe. Cook
longer if necessary. Switch off heat
and remove foods.
How to Time Bake
(on models with this feature)
The automatic oven timer controls
are designed to turn the oven on
or off automatically at specific
times that you set.
How to Set Immediate
Start and Automatic Stop
NOTE: Before beginning, make
sure the hands of the range clock
show the correct time of day.
Immediate Start is simply setting
oven to start baking now and turn
off at a later time automatically.
Remember, foods continue
cooking after controls are off.
Step 1: To set Stop Time, push in
knob on STOP TIME dial and turn
pointer to time you want oven to
turn off, for example 6:00. The
DELAY START dial should be at
the same position as the time of
day on clock.
Step 2: Turn OVEN SET knob to
TIME BAKE. Turn OVEN TEMP
knob to oven temperature, for
example 250”F. The oven will start
immediately and will stop at the
time you have set.
How to Set Delay Start
and Stop
Delay Start and Stop is setting the
oven timer to turn the oven on and
off automatically at a later time
than the present time of day.
Step 1: To set start time, push in
knob on DELAY START dial and
turn pointer to time you want oven
to turn on, for example 3:30.
Step 2: To set Stop Time, push in
knob on STOP TIME dial and turn
pointer to time you want oven to
turn off, for example 6:00. This
means your recipe called for two
and one-half hours of baking time.
NOTE: Time on STOP TIME dial
must be later than time shown on
range clock and DELAY START
dial.
Step 3: Turn OVEN SET knob to
TIME BAKE. Turn OVEN TEMP
knob to 250”F. or recommended
temperature.
Place food in oven, close the door
and automatically the oven will be
turned on and off at the times you
have set. Turn OVEN SET to OFF
and remove food from oven.
OVEN INDICATOR LIGHT(s) at
TIME BAKE setting may work
differently than they do at BAKE
setting. Carefully recheck the steps
given above. If all operations are
done as explained, oven will
operate as it should.
