• During oven operation, it is possible that the oven

the oven is cooled.
NOTE
Tips for baking
Follow the recipe or convection food directions for
baking temperature, time and rack position. Baking time
and temperature will vary depending on the ingredients,
size, and shape of the baking pan used.
• For best results, food should be baked on a single rack
with at least 1” to 1
1
/
2
” of air space between the pans
and oven walls.
• Check for doneness at the minimum time.
• Use metal bakeware (with or without a nonstick finish),
heatproof glass-ceramic, ceramic or other bakeware
recommended for oven use.
• Dark metal pans or nonstick coatings will cook faster
with more browning. Insulated bake ware will slightly
lengthen the cooking time for most foods.
When using an oven thermometer in the oven
cavity, temperatures may differ from the actual set
oven temperature.
