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 efficiently.
Here are some tips
to
help you conserve energy
when using your cooking product.
l
Preheat only when recommended and for the
shortest time possible.
l “Oven
peeking” may cause heat loss, longer
cooking times and unsatisfactory baking
results. Rely on your timer.
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.
Using the electronic MEALTIMERTM control
The electronic MEALTIMER control will turn the
oven on and off at times you set . . . even when
you are not around.
Automatic baking/roasting is ideal for foods
which do not require
a
preheated oven, such
as
meats and casseroles.
Do not use the auto-
matic cycle for cakes, cookies, etc. . . .
undercooking will result.
To start baking/roasting now
and stop automatically
1.
Position the oven rack(s) properly and put
food in the oven.
2. Make sure the clock is set to the correct
time of day. (See
Setting the cloclc on
iwe 9.1
3. Push the Cook Time pad. SET, COOK, TIME
and HR will flash.
