CAUTION! Do not use aluminum foil to cover
the oven racks or to line the oven. Heat can be
trapped beneath the foil, this can cause damage
to the oven and food may not cook correctly.
Before BAKING and BROILING
Turn on the oven and broiler burners one at a
time for 20 to 30 minutes each. This burns off the
manufacturing oils used by the factory. Turn the
oven burner on to 450°F and then the broiler
burner ON to "Broil". Be sure to turn on the
ventilator above your range while these burners
are on, as there will be an odor.
