ALUMINUM FOIL (For Ovens Only)

IMPORTANT:

To avoid permanent damage to the oven bottom finish, do not line the oven bottom with any type

of foil or liner.

■

For best cooking results, do not cover entire rack with foil because air must be able to move freely.

■

To catch spills, place foil on rack below dish. Make sure foil is at least 1/2" (1.3 cm) larger than the dish and
that it is turned up at the edges.

ALUMINIUM FOIL AND METAL (For Microwave Ovens Only)

Always use oven mitts or pot holders when removing dishes from the microwave oven.

Aluminum foil and some metal can be used in the microwave oven. If not used properly, arcing (a blue flash of
light) can occur and cause damage to the microwave oven.

OK for Use

Racks and bakeware supplied with the microwave oven (on some models), aluminum foil for shielding, and
approved meat thermometers may be used with the following guidelines:

■

To avoid damage to the microwave oven, do not allow aluminum foil or metal to touch the inside cavity walls,
ceiling or floor.

■

Always use the turntable.

■

To avoid damage to the microwave oven, do not allow contact with another metal object during microwave
cooking.

Do Not Use

Metal cookware and bakeware, gold, silver, pewter, non-approved meat thermometers, skewers, twist ties, foil
liners such as sandwich wrappers, staples and objects with gold or silver trim or a metallic glaze should not be
used in the microwave oven.

POSITIONING RACKS AND BAKEWARE

IMPORTANT:

To avoid permanent damage to the porcelain finish, do not

place food or bakeware directly on the oven door or bottom.

Racks

■

Position

racks

before

turning

on

the

oven.

■

Do

not

position

racks

with

bakeware

on

them.

■

Make

sure

racks

are

level.

■

Place

food

so

it

will

not

rise

into

the

broil

element.

Allow

at

least

1/2"

(1.3

cm)

between

pans

and

the

broil

element.

To move a rack, pull it out to the stop position, raise the front edge, and
then lift it out. Use the following illustration as a guide for positioning
racks.

For hamburger patties to have a well-seared exterior and a rare interior, use a flat rack in position 6. Side 1
should cook for approximately 3 minutes. Side 2 should cook for approximately 3 to 4 minutes. Expect a
moderate degree of smoke when broiling.

Baking Layer Cakes on 2 Racks

For best results when baking cakes on two racks, use rack
positions 2 and 5 with the Bake function. Place the cakes on
the racks as shown. Keep at least 2" (5.0 cm) of space
between the front of the racks and the front of the cakes.

Baking Cookies on 2 Racks

For best results when baking cookies on two racks, use rack positions 2 and 5.

OVEN VENT(S)

The oven vent(s) should not be
blocked or covered since they allow
the inlet of fresh air into the cooling
system. Also, the bottom vent
should not be blocked or covered
since it allows the inlet of fresh air
into the cooling system and the
outlet of hot air from the cooling
system. Blocking or covering vents
will cause poor air circulation,
affecting cooking, cleaning, and
cooling results.
