Cookware tips.
Bake
Metal Pans are recommended for all types of baked products, but especially where
browning is important.
Dark or dull finish metal pans are best for breads and pies because they absorb heat and
produce crisper crust.
Shiny aluminum pans are better for cakes, cookies or muffins because they reflect heat
and help produce a light tender crust.
Glass or Glass-Ceramic casserole or baking dishes are best suited for egg and cheese
recipes due to the cleanability of glass.
Fast Bake
Glass or Glass-Ceramic baking containers are recommended. Be sure not to use items with
metal trim as it may cause arcing (sparking) with oven wall or oven shelf. This can damage
the cookware, the shelf or the oven.
Heat-Resistant Plastic microwave cookware (safe to 450°F) may be used, but it is not
recommended for foods requiring all-around browning, because the plastic is a poor
conductor of heat.

■ In Microwave mode, the food should
always be cooked on the glass turntable
tray. Microwave mode should not be used
with the metal shelf in the oven.
■ The metal shelf should always be used
when cooking in Bake or Fast Bake
modes so that heated air will brown
the bottom of the food. The glass
turntable can be left in place in Bake
and Fast Bake modes.
■ For best cooking performance in Bake or
Fast Bake modes, leave at least a one inch
gap between the cooking dish and the
sides of the oven.
■ For best cooking performance in Bake or
Fast Bake modes, always place the shelf
in the “low” position.
■ Placing the shelf in the “high” position
will cause the top of the food to brown/
cook much faster than the interior and
bottom of the food.
