265 F is the recommended temp at which to cook, them, I believe. The instructions say 130 C + or - 5 degrees, which would be 257 F to 275 F. 130 C = 266 F. I like the pizzastone/towel idea. I just but the towel on the rack, and gave them 12 minutes. While they were in the oven, I put a thin sock on with some handkerchiefs around my foot to simulate a toe cap, and then another liner sock over. I made sure the sock was tight so I didn't get any wrinkles. I pulled the liners out of the oven, put them on my feet, and slipped them into the ski boot. A tightened the straps to just snug and waited fifteen minutes. Perfect fit. Things to watch for: Make sure the seem at the bottom of the boot is straight and right under your heel. Don't get any wrinkles in your sock, or folds in the liner. If you can't do it right on your third try, take it to a professional.

Hey Mike,I've heated my liners at home (Scarpa, Garmont and BD) for years and here's what I've found to work best.Place your oven rack on the 2nd from the bottom position. Place a pizza stone or large baking pan on the rack, then cover the rack/stone with an old dish towel. This will prevent the rack itself from burning the liners. Heat oven to NO MORE than 225 degrees F. Place liners in oven once it is warm and keep an eye on them. I usually turn them every 3 minutes and heat for about 10 miutes total time. Once you are done heating them they should be warm, and moldable. Follow the directions for molding them once out of the oven...
