food directly on the oven
bottom. If you want,
place the food on the
rack at the extra rack
position. During baking/
roasting, the oven burner

Save energy and save money
•
“Oven peeking” can make cooking
times longer and affect food quality.
•
Rely on a timer to keep track of
cooking time.
•
Plan your meals for the most efficient
use of the oven by cooking more than
one food at a time or baking while the
oven is still hot after cooking a meal.
•
It is not necessary to preheat the oven
when broiling or roasting unless your
recipe recommends doing so.
Roasting meats and poultry
•
For even cooking, place the meat on a
rack in a shallow pan. This keeps the meat
out of the drippings and allows the heat to
circulate better.
•
Use a meat thermometer for the most
accurate doneness. Insert it so the tip is
in the center of the largest muscle or
thickest portion of the meat or poultry.
Make sure the thermometer is not touch-
ing bone, fat, or the bottom of the pan.
4. After baking/roasting, turn the oven temperature
control knob clockwise
to OFF.
