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:

l Use pans with flat bottoms, straight sides,

and tight-fitting lids.

l Match the pan to the surface unit size.

l Cook with a minimum of liquid or fat to

help shorten cooking time.

l Preheat pans only when recommended

and for the shortest time possible.

l Start food on higher heat settings, then set

surface unit control on low or off to finish

cooking. Use retained heat for cooking

when possible.

l Use the more efficient surface units

instead of the oven when possible.

l Turn on the surface unit only after placing

filled pan on the unit.

l “Oven peeking” may cause heat loss,

longer cooking times, and unsatisfactory

baking results. Rely on your timer to keep

track of the cooking time.

l Bake cakes, pies, or cookies when the

oven is warm. Best time to bake is right

after a meal has been cooked in the oven.

l Preheat the oven no longer than necessary.

l Plan your meals for the most efficient use

of the range. When using the oven to cook

one food, try to cook the rest of the meal in

it also.

l Do not preheat when broiling, roasting, or

cooking items such as casseroles.

l Keep reflector bowls clean for best heat

reflection.
