Oven Baking
For best cooking results, heat the oven before baking cookies, breads, cakes, pies or pastries, etc. There is no need to preheat the 
oven for roasting meat or baking casseroles. 
The cooking times and temperatures needed to bake a product may vary slightly from your previously owned appliance.
