IMPORTANTSAFETYNOtiCE

The California Safe Drinking Water and ToxicEnforcement Act requires the Governor of California to

publish a list of substances known to the state to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive

harm, and requires businesses to warn customers of potential exposure to such substances.
The fiberglass insulation in self-clean ovens gives off a very small amount of carbon monoxide during

the cleaning cycle. Exposure can be minimized by venting with an open window or using a ventilation
fan or hood.

Preheating and Pan Placement

Preheat the oven if the recipe calls fi',r it.
To preheat, set the oven at the correct
temperature. Preheating is necessm y for
good results when baking cakes, cookies,
pastry and breads.

Forovenswithout apreheat indicator l/)ht or

Aluminum Foil

Ym can use ahmfinum fifil m line the

broiler pan and broiler grid. Howe\'e_;

um must mold the f0il tightly to the grid

and cut slits in it just like the g6d.

Alumlbumfoil mayalso be usedto catch a
spillover

Baking results will be better if' baking
pans are centered in the oven as inuch 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 direct.Iv above the othe_;
and leave approMmately 1½" between

pans, fl'om the fl'ont, back and sides of
the wall.

Never entirely cover a shelf with
aluminum toil. This will disturb the heat

circulation and result in poor baking.
A smaller sheet of foil may be used to

catch a spillover by placing it on a lower
shelf several inches below the food.

NOTE." Foods that spoil easily--such as milk, eggs, fish, stuffings, poultry and pork--should not be allowed to s# for

more than I hour before or after cooking. Room temperature promotes the growth of harmful bacteria. Be sure that

the oven light is off because heat from the bulb will speed harmful bacteria growth.

Youmay find that your new oven cooks differently than the one it replaced. Use your new oven for a few weeks to

become more familiar with it. If you still think your new oven is too hot or too cold, you can adjust the thermostat yourself.

Do not use thermometers, such as those found in grocery stores, to check the temperature setting of your oven.
These thermometers may vary 20_40 degrees.

Most recipes for baking have been developed using high-fat products such as butter or margarine (80% fat). If you

decrease the fat, the recipe may not give the same results as with a higher-fat product.

Recipe failure can result if cakes, pies, pastries, cookies or candies are made with Iow-fat spreads. The lower the fat

content of a spread product, the more noticeable these differences become.

Federal standards require products labeled "margarine" to contain at least 80% fi_t by weight. Ixm_li_t spreads, on the
other hand, contain less ti_t and mine water Tile high moisture content of these spreads aftect the textm'e and flavor

of baked goods. For best results with wmr old ti_vorite redpes, use mmgarine, butter or stick spreads containing
at least 70% vegetable oil.
