Why are my baked goods burning on bottom?

WARNING!

To avoid personal injury or death, disconnect your appliance from its power source before you start any troubleshooting or repair work. Use caution when working inside any appliance.

The reason your baked goods are burning on bottom could be due to you using dark cookware. Dark cookware cooks your foods faster than bright shiny cookware. Make sure you aren't blocking the air circulation in the oven by using foil over the racks. Another reason could be that your burner flame is too soft. You can try to increase the amount of air that the flame is receiving. Pay close attention to preheating times.
