How to Use the Time Bake on a GE Electric Range

Now you have to take the kids to soccer practice this afternoon, but you're serving baked potatoes for dinner and you want to eat right away when you come home. What to do? Your new oven has a timed bake feature that will bake the potatoes for you while you're out, but how do you know you've pressed the right buttons? You definitely don't want to come home and find those potatoes still raw. You can learn how to use the time bake on a GE electric range by following these simple steps.
