See the Installation Instructions. To remove deposits, use a cloth soaked with vinegar. Then use a cloth dampened with water to thoroughly remove any vinegar residue. Level the range. See the Installation Instructions. Double-check the recipe in a reliable cookbook. See "Oven Temperature Control" in the "Electronic Oven Controls" section. See "Baking and Roasting" section. See "Positioning Racks and Bakeware" section. See "Positioning Racks and Bakeware" section. Lower oven temperature 25°F (15°C) or move rack to a higher position in the oven. Move rack to a lower position in the oven. Check that batter is level in the pan. Level the range if necessary. See the Installation Instructions. Adjust cooking time. Be sure that the bakeware does not keep the door from closing. Oven peeking releases oven heat and can result in longer cooking times. Move rack to higher position in the oven. Use aluminum foil to cover the edge of the crust and/or reduce baking temperature. 19
