USING ALUMINUM FOIL
� Do not line the oven bottom with any type of foil, liners, or cookware. Permanent damage will occur to the oven bottom finish. � Do not block the oven bottom vents. � Do not cover the entire rack with aluminum foil. Doing so will reduce air circulation and overall oven performance. � To catch spillovers from pies or casseroles place foil on the oven rack below. Foil should be turned up at edges and be at least 1 inch larger than dish. � Place tent-shaped foil loosely over meat or poultry to slow down surface browning for long term roasting. Remove foil for the last 30 minutes. � Use narrow strips of foil to shield piecrust edges if browning too quickly.
