Preheating
and pan
placement
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.
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 shelves, stagger the
pans so one is not directly above the other, and
leave approximately 1
1
2 between pans, from
the front, back and sides of the wall.
Cookie
sheets
(on some models)
As an added convenience for you when using your
new convection oven, we have provided three cookie
sheets.
The cookie sheets provide uniform baking.
They are dishwasher safe, durable and will not
warp or rust.
Insulated cookie sheets, with an easy grip lip,
are made of two layers of aluminum with an
insulating layer of air for uniform baking.
Aluminum is an oven baking metal. It is not,
however, a non-stick surface. If your recipe
recommends greasing, spray lightly with a non-
stick vegetable coating; wipe off the excess. If
preferred, put a light film of shortening on the
cookie sheet. Cookies should cool at least 2
minutes before removing them from the sheet.
Your insulated cookie sheets can be used for
convection baking or regular baking. However,
if you choose not to use Convection Bake for
baking cookies and are baking on the insulated
cookie sheets, you may find that the
recommended baking time needs to be
increased 3 to 5 minutes.
Aluminum
foil
You can use aluminum foil to line the broiler
pan and broiler grid. However, you must mold
the foil tightly to the grid and cut slits in it just
like the grid.
Aluminum foil may also be used to catch a spillover.
Never entirely cover a shelf 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 shelf several
inches below the food.
Cut slits in the foil just like the grid.
