Oven Problems
Problem Cause / Solution
Poor baking results. Many factors aect baking results. Use proper oven rack position. Center food in
the oven and space pans to allow air to circulate. Preheat the oven to the set tem-
perature before placing food in the oven. Try adjusting the recipe's recommended
temperature or baking time. See “Adjusting Oven Temperatures” on page 37 if
you feel the oven is too hot or too cool.

Wipe up excessive spills before starting the oven. If flames or excessive smoke are
present when using broil, see “Setting Broil” on page 27
Oven smokes excessively

Incorrect setting. Follow the “Setting Broil” on page 27
Meat too close to the broil element or burner. Reposition the broil pan to provide
proper clearance between the meat and broil element or burner. Remove excess fat
from meat. Cut remaining fatty edges to prevent curling, but do not cut into lean.
