Energy Conservation Tips
A. Microwave Cooking
1. Use proper power level as recommended and
DO NOT OVERCOOK.
Do not operate the oven while empty. If by acci­
dent the oven should run empty a minute or two,
no harm is done. However, try to avoid operating
the oven empty at all times—saves energy and
also ensures good long term life of oven.

B. Oven Cooking
Preheat the oven only when necessary. Most
foods will cook satisfactorily without preheating,
if you find preheating is necessary, keep an eye
on the indicaior light, and put food in the oven
promptly after the light goes out.
Alv/ays turn oven OFF before removing food.

.
During baking, avoid frequent door openings.
Keep door open as short a time as possible
when it is opened.
For self-cleaning oven, be sure to wipe up ex­
cess spillage befo.re self-cleaning operation.
Cook complete oven meals instead of just one
food item. Potatoes, other vegetables, and some
desserts will cook together with a main-dish cas­
serole, meat loaf, chicken or roast. Choose
foods that cook at the same temperature in ap­
proximately the same time.
Use residual heat in oven whenever possible to
finish cooking casseroles, oven meals, etc. Also
add rolls or precooked desserts to warm oven,
using residual heat to warm them.
