Energy saving tips
Although the energy used for cooking is usually a
very small percentage of the total energy used in
the home, cooking energy can be used effi-
ciently. Here are some tips to help you save
energy when using your cooking product.
l
Use pans with flat bottoms, straight sides and
tight-fitting lids.
l
Cook with a minimum of liquid or fat to help
shorten cooking time.
l
Preheat pans only when recommended and for
the shortest time possible.
l
Start food on higher heat settings, then set
surface burner control on low or off to finish
cooking. Use retained heat for cooking when
possible.
l
Use the more efficient surface burners instead
of the oven when possible.
l
Turn on the surface burner only after placing
filled pan on the burner grate.
l
“Oven peeking” may cause heat loss, longer
cooking times and unsatisfactory baking
results. Rely on your timer to keep track of the
cooking time.
l
Bake cakes, pies or cookies when oven is
warm. Best time is after a meal has been
cooked in it.
l
Preheat the oven no longer than necessary.
l
Plan your meals for the most efficient use of
the range. When using the oven to cook one
food, try to cook the rest of the meal in it also.
l
Do not preheat when broiling, roasting or
cooking items such as casseroles.
l
Keep reflector pans clean for best heat
reflection.
The oven vent
Hot air and moisture escape from the oven
through a vent located in the lower part of
backguard. The vent is needed for air circulation.
Do not block the vent. Poor baking/roasting will
result.
NOTE: Never store plastics, paper or other items
that could melt or burn near the oven vent, or any
of the surface burners.
Burn Hazard
When the oven is ON, pans and pan
handles left near the oven vent can
become hot enough to burn the user and to
melt plastics. Use potholders to move
pans.
