Using Your Oven
Baking tips
(Bake pad)
For proper cooking, follow these
guidelines:
• When using one rack, place the rack so
the top of the food will be centered in the
oven.
• When using more than one rack, use the
Convection Bake setting.
• Use only one cookie sheet in the oven at
one time when using the Bake setting.
Rack placement for specific foods:
(For rack positions, see “Rack positions” on
page 34.)
RACK
FOOD
POSITION
Frozen pies
2
Angel food and bundt cakes,
most quick breads, yeast
breads, casseroles, meats
1 or 2
Cookies, biscuits, muffins,
cakes, nonfrozen pies
2 or 3
Using aluminum foil in the oven
(for thermal baking)
Use aluminum foil to catch spillovers from
pies or casseroles.
• Place the foil on the oven rack below the
rack with the food. Turn foil edges up and
make sure foil is about 1 inch (3 cm) larger
all around than the dish holding the food.
• Do not cover the entire rack with alumi¬
num foil. It will reduce air circulation and
cause poor cooking results.
NOTE: Do not line oven bottom or entire
oven rack with foil or other liners. Poor
baking and damage to the oven may result.
Convection baking tips
(Convection Bake pad)
• Do not use aluminum foil when convection
baking. Aluminum foil may block airflow.
• Reduce recommended recipe oven
temperature by approximately 25°F.
Use EASY CONVECT* Conversion
(see page 22).
• For some recipes, you can reduce
convection baking time compared to
standard baking times. Use EASY
CONVECT* Conversion (see page 22).
NOTE: Cooking time may be longer when
you use more than one rack.
