Air Circulation in the Oven
For best air circulation and baking results allow 2-4" (5-10 cm) around the cookware for proper
air circulation and be sure pans and cookware do not touch each other, the oven door, sides or
back of the oven cavity. The hot air must be able to circulate around the pans and cookware in
the oven for even heat to reach around the food.
