How
to Bake and Time Bake
When cooking a food for the first
time in your new oven, use time
given
on
recipes as a guide. Oven
thermostats, over a period
of
years,
may
"drift"
from the factory setting
and
differences in timing between
an
old
and
a new oven of 5
to
10
minutes are
not
unusual
and
you
may be inclined to
think
that
the
new oven
is
not performing cor-
rectly. However, your new oven has
been set correctly
at
the factory
and
is
more
apt
to be accurate
than
the
oven it replaced.
How to Set
Your
Range
for Baking
St
ep
1:
Place food in oven, being
certain
to
leave
about
I-inch
of
space between pans
and

of
heat.
Close oven door. During baking,
avoid frequent
door
openings to
prevent undesirable results.

BAKE
and OVEN

How to Time Bake
The
automatic
oven timer controls
are designed to
turn
the oven on

at
a later time and

off
at
a
preset stop time) will be described.
