QU $Tt@ $ & ANSW'E $
O. Can I use speclal cooking equipment, like an oriental
wok, on any of the cootdng elements?
A. We recommend that you use only fiat bottomed
woks. Cookware without flat surfaces Is not recom-
mended.
Q. May i can foods and preserves on my maintop cook-
Ing elements?
A. Yes, but only use cookware designed for canning
purposes. Check the manufacturer's Instructions
and recipes for preservlng foods. Be sure canner Is
flat-bottomed and fits over the center of the cooking
element selected. Canning generates large amounts
of steam; be careful to avoid burns.
Q. Why am I not getting the heat I need from my selected
cooking element even though the knob is on the right
setting?
A. Use cookware with flat bottoms and center the cook-
ware on the coils of the cooking element selected.
Metal cookware will conduct heat best.

• When cooking a food for the first time In your new
oven, use time given on recipes as a guide.
Your new oven has been set correctly at the factory
and Is more apt to be accurate than the oven it
replaced.
After you have used your oven for awhile, if you feel
your oven should be hotter or cooler, you can adjust
it yourself. See TEmPeRATURE AIDJ USTMEHTS
In this manual.
= NO PEEKING-- Opening the door too oftento check
food during baking will allow heat loss and may
cause poor baiting results.
, There may be some odor when the oven Is first used.
This Is caused by the heating of new parts and
insulation.
o Do not cover an entire oven rack with foil. The foil
can block normal heat flow and cause poor baking
results. Do not place any foil directly above the bake
element. Foll used on the oven bottom under the
element may damage the oven surface; therefore, It
should not be used. See ltlustration at thetop of the
next column.

When recipes require preheating, have food nearby
before you open the oven door. if the oven door is
allowed to remain open for more than a brief time,
the preheat temperature will be lost.
Let the oven preheat thoroughly before cooking
baked products. Listen forpreheat notlficationtone
(if equipped) or watch for the indicator light to go off.
If your range does not have either of these features,
preheat for 10 minutes and put the food in the oven.
_AKEWA_IE
, Cookies should be baked on flat cookie sheets
without sides to allow the air to circulate properly.
, Cakes, muffins, and quick breads should be baked
In shiny pans --to reflect the heat -- because they
should have a light golden crust. Be sure the
underside of the pan Is shiny, too. Darkened under-
sides will absorb the hea_ and may cause over-
browning on the bottom of your food.
, Yeast breads and pie crusts should be baked in
glass or dull (non-shiny) pans --to absorb the heat
because they should have a brown, crisp crust.
. Oven temperatures should be reduced 25 degrees
below recommended temperatures if exterior of pan
Is predarkened, darkened by age or oven proo_
glass. NEOVC34
