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:

Turn on the surface burner only after
placing filled pan on the burner grate.

“Oven peeking” may cause heat loss,
longer cooking times, and unsatisfactory
baking results. Rely on your timer to keep
track of the cooking time.

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.

control, make sure the clock is set to the
correct time of day. (See “Setting the clock”
earlier in this section.)

Plan your meals for the most efficient use
of the range by cooking more than one
food at a time, or baking while the oven is
still hot after cooking a meal.

Keep reflector pans clean for best heat
reflection.
