OVEN USE
Odors and smoke are normal when the oven is used the first few times, or when it is heavily soiled. During oven use, the heating elements will not remain on, but will cycle on and off throughout oven operation. If the range is installed on a 208-volt circuit, the oven preheat time will be longer. Allow at least 20 minutes for the oven to preheat. During cooking, keep heat loss to a minimum by opening the oven door only when necessary. IMPORTANT: The health of some birds is extremely sensitive to the fumes given off. Exposure to the fumes may result in death to certain birds. Always move birds to another closed and well ventilated room.

BAKEWARE
To cook food evenly, hot air must be able to circulate. Allow 2 in. (5 cm) of space around bakeware and oven walls. Use the following chart as a guide.
NUMBER OF PAN(S) 1 2 3 or 4 POSITION ON RACK

Aluminum Foil
IMPORTANT: Do not line the oven bottom with any type of foil, liners or cookware because permanent damage will occur to the oven bottom finish. s Do not cover entire rack with foil because air must be able to move freely for best cooking results.
