Aluminum Foil

Donotusealuminumfoilonthebottom oftheoven.

Never entirely cover a shelfwifll ahllIlintllI1 foil. This will disturb the heat

circulation and result in poor baking.

Baking results will be better if baking pans are centered in the oven as much as

possible. Pans should not much each other or the waUsof the oven. If you need

to use two shelves, stagger the pans so one is not directly above the otbei; and leave

approximately 1½" between pans, from the flont, back and sides of the waU.

A smaller sheet of foil may be used to catch a spillover by placing it on a lower

shelf several inches below the food.
