Oven Functions

Tips for Bake
Most cooking times in recipes are designed for a preheated
oven and require that the oven already be at a certain
temperature before cooking starts. Refer to your recipe for
preheating recommendations
the temperature setting and the number of racks in the
oven.
Getting the Best Results
• Minimize opening the door:
• Use a minute timer.
• Use the interior oven light.
• Use the rack position recommended by the recipe.
• Use the bakeware recommended by the recipe.
• Store the broiler pan(s) outside the oven. An extra pan
without food, affects the browning and cooking.
• The type of pan used affects the browning:
• For tender, golden brown crusts, use light
non-stick/anodized or shiny metal pans.
• For brown crisp crusts, use dark non-stick/
anodized or dark, dull metal pans or glass
bakeware. These may require lowering the bake
temperature 25°F (14°C).
Bake Rack Positions
• Rack level positions in the oven are numbered like an
elevator. Number one level is the lowest and number
five level is at the top.

Bakeware Type
• Metal bakeware (with or without a non-stick finish),
heat-proof glass, glass-ceramic, pottery, or other
utensils are suitable for the oven.
• Cookie sheets with only two sides give the best results.
Aluminum commercial half-sheets or professional
cooking utensils may be used.
• The 36" and 48" (914 mm and 1219 mm) ovens will
hold a full-sized commercial baking sheet (18" x 26")
(457 mm x 660 mm).
Placement
• Allow at least 1" (25.4 mm) of space between the pans
and the oven walls so heat can circulate around each
pan.
• Stagger bakeware so that one is not directly above
another. Allow 1½" (38 mm) above and below each
pan.
