using your oven for the first time. To help
eliminate thisodor, ventilate the room
by opening a window or using a
vent hood.

bottom oroven rack with aluminum foil.
improper use can cause poor heat flow,
poor baking results, and may damage the
oven finish. To prevent staining from
spillovers, you may place a piece of
aluminum foil or a cookie sheet onthe rack
below the food which may spill over.
The oven vent is located under the control
panel. This area could become hot during
oven use. The vent is important for proper
air circulation. Never block this vent.

Preheating is bringing the oven temperature
up to the temperature you will be using
during baking. Let the oven preheat
thoroughly when recipes call for preheating.
Thelowtemperature zone ofyour oven
(between 170°Fand 200°F)is availableto
keep hotcookedfoods warm. However,foods
should notbe kept atthese temperatures
longer than 2 hours.
To prolong the life of your oven light bulb,
follow this helpful tip: Always turn the light
off when the oven is not in useor during a
clean cycle. If your oven light is left on for
an extended period of time, the oven will be
warm when the door is opened due to the
heat generated from the oven light bulb.

developed using high-fat products suchas
butter or margarine (80%fat by weight--the
federal requirementfor products labeled
"margarine"),You will get poorresults if
cakes, pies, pastries, cookies, or candies are
made with low-fat spreads. Low-fat spreads
contain less fat and morewater. Thehigh
moisturecontent ofthese spreads affects the
texture and flavor of favorite baked recipes.
