Energy saving tips

Although the energy used for cooking is

usually a very small percentage of the total
energy used in the home, cooking energy

can be used efficiently. Here are some tips
to help you save energy when using your
cooking product:

• Preheat

only when recommended and for

the shortest time possible.

• “Oven peeking”

may cause heat loss,

longer cooking times, and unsatisfactory
baking results. Rely on your timer to keep

track of the cooking time.

• Bake

cakes, pies, or cookies when oven

is warm. Best time to bake is right after a
meal has been cooked in oven.

• Plan

your meals for the most efficient use

of the oven. When using the oven to cook
one food, try to cook the rest of the meal

in it also.

• Do not preheat

when broiling, roasting,

or cooking items such as casseroles.

Using the electronic MEALTIMER'^ control

The electronic MEALTIMER control will turn
the oven on and off at times you set, even
when you are not around.

Delayed time baking/roasting is ideal for

foods which do not require a preheated
oven, such as meats and casseroles.

Do

not use delayed time cooking for cakes,
cookies, etc. - they will not rise properly.

This section discusses two methods for

starting baking/roasting now and stopping
automatically later, and three methods for
starting and stopping baking/roasting
automatically. Read this section carefully to
choose which method(s) is best for you.

Before using the electronic MEALTIMER

control, make sure the clock is set to the
correct time of day.

(See “Setting the clock”

on page 10.)

NOTE:

Displays shown are from single/

upper ovens. Command pads shown are

from double ovens. In some cases, lower
oven displays and single oven command

pads may look different than those shown.

To start baking/roasting now

and stop automatically:

Method 1-Using Cook Time:

1. Prepare oven.

Position the oven rack(s) properly and

put food in the oven. For correct rack
placement, see “Positioning racks and
