Preheat the oven if the recipe calls for it.
To preheat, set the oven at the correct
temperature. Preheating is necessary for
good results when baking cakes, cookies,
pastry and breads.
On some models, the display will show “PRE”
while preheating. When the oven reaches the
selected temperature, the oven control will
beep and the display will show the oven
temperature.
For ovens without a preheat indicator light
or tone, preheat 10 minutes.
Baking results will be better if baking
pans are centered in the oven as much as
possible. Pans should not touch each other
or the walls of the oven. If you need to use
two racks, stagger the pans so one is
not directly above the other, and leave
approximately 1
1
⁄2″ from the front
of the pan to the front of the rack.
On models without an oven temperature knob:
Place the meat or fish on a broiler grid
in a broiler pan.
Follow suggested rack positions in the
Broiling Guide.
Leave the door open to the broil stop
position. The door stays open by itself,
yet the proper temperature is
maintained in the oven.
Use LO Broil to cook foods such as poultry
or thick cuts of meat thoroughly without
over-browning them.
Touch the BROIL HI/LO pad once
for HI BROIL.
To change to LO Broil, touch
the Broil HI/LO pad again.
Touch the START/ON pad.
When broiling is finished, touch
the CLEAR/OFF pad.
On models with an oven temperature knob:
Place the meat or fish on a broiler grid
in a broiler pan.
Follow suggested rack positions
in the Broiling Guide.
Close the oven door.
Turn the Oven Temperature Knob to
BROIL.
When broiling is finished, turn the
Oven Temperature Knob to OFF.
Do not use aluminum foil on the bottom
of the oven.
Never entirely cover a rack with aluminum
foil. This will disturb the heat circulation and
result in poor baking.
A smaller sheet of foil may be used to
catch a spillover by placing it on a lower rack
several inches below the food.

Most recipes for baking have been
developed using high fat products such
as butter or margarine (80% fat). If you
decrease the fat, the recipe may not
give the same results as with a higher
fat product.
Recipe failure can result if cakes, pies,
pastries, cookies or candies are made with
low fat spreads. The lower the fat content
of a spread product, the more noticeable
these differences become.
Federal standards require products labeled
“margarine” to contain at least 80% fat by
weight. Low-fat spreads, on the other hand,
contain less fat and more water. The high
moisture content of these spreads affects
the texture and flavor of baked goods. For
best results with your old favorite recipes,
use margarine, butter or stick spreads
containing at least 70% vegetable oil.

If your range is connected
to 208 volts, rare steaks
may be broiled by preheating
the broiler and positioning
the oven rack one position higher.
