COOKING RECOMMENDATIONS
Cooking Conditions
Conditions in your kitchen can aect the performance of your appliance when cooking food.
Condition Attributes Recommendation
Aging cookware As pans age and become
discolored, cooking times may
need to be reduced slightly.
If food is too dark or overcooked, use the
minimum cook time in the recipe or packag-
ing.
If food is too light or undercooked, use the
middle to maximum cook time in the recipe
or packaging.
High altitude Air is drier and air pressure is
lower.
Water boils at a lower tem-
perature, and liquids evapo-
rate faster.
Foods may take longer to
bake.
Doughs may rise faster.
Adjust cooking temperature, cooking time, or
recipes as needed.
Increase amount of liquid in baking recipes.
Increase cook time on cooktop. Cover dishes
to reduce evaporation.
Increase bake time or oven temperature.
Reduce amount of baking soda or baking
powder in recipe. Reduce rising time or
punch down dough and allow it to rise twice.

Situation Recommendation
Baking
Rack placement Follow the instructions in “Setting Oven Controls” on starting on page 13.
When using only one rack, place the rack so the food is in the center of the
oven.
Preheat Fully preheat the oven before baking items like cookies, cakes, biscuits and
breads. Insert food immediately after the beep.
Checking food Use the window and oven light when checking food. Opening the door may
reduce baking performance.
Bake or Convection Bake Convection bake is the best function to use for baking on multiple racks. For
best performance, see “Convection Bake” on page 18.
Food placement Allow at least 2 inches (5 cm) of space between bakeware for proper air cir-
culation.
