To avoid possibie burns, place the shelves In the
desired position before you turn the oven on.
The shelves have stop-locks,
so that when placed correctly
on the supports (A through
E), they will stop before
coming completely out; they
also will not tilt
When placing and removing
cookware, pul! the shelf out
to the bump on the shelf
support..
To remove a shelf, puli it
toward you, tilt the front end
up and pull it out.
To replace, place the end of
the shelf (stop-locks) on the
support, tilt up the front and
push the shelf in,
NOTE: The shelf Is not
designed to slide out at the special low (R) shelf position.

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 Vf from the
front of the pan to the front of the shelf .
Aluminum Foii
Never cover the oven bottom with 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. To do so, place a small sheet of foil on a
lower shelf several inches below the food.
Never entirely cover a shelf with aluminum foil. This will
disturb the heat circulation and result in poor baking.
How to Set the Oven for Broiiing
1. Place the food on the broiler grid in the broiler pan.
2. Follow suggested shelf positions in the Broiling Guide.
3. Turn the Oven Temperature
knob to BROIL.
The oven has 6 sheH positions.
Leave the door open
to the broil stop position.
The door stays open
by itself, yet the proper
temperature is
maintained in
the oven
