Use and Care Manual

Recommended rack positions for various types of
foods are provided in the Cooking Guide. Adjusting
rack position is one way to impact cooking results. For
example, if you would prefer darker tops on cakes,
muffins, or cookies, try moving food one rack position
higher. If you find foods are too brown on top try moving
them down next time.
When baking with multiple pans and on multiple racks,
ensurethereisatleast1½"betweenpanstoallow
sufficient space for air to flow.
YourOvenmayhaveextensionracksand/ortraditional
flat racks.
To avoid possible burns, place the racks in the desired
position before you turn the oven on.
Removing and Replacing Flat Racks
When placing and removing cookware, pull the rack out
tothebump(stopposition)ontheracksupport.
To remove a rack, pull it toward you until it reaches the
stop position, tilt up the front of the rack and pull it out.
To replace a rack, place the curved end of the rack onto
the rack supports. Tilt up the front of the rack and push
the rack in until it stops. Then lay the rack flat and push
it in until it is all the way into the oven.
Racks may become difficult to slide, especially after a
self-clean cycle. To improve sliding conditions, use a soft
cloth or paper towel to rub vegetable oil on the left and
rightedgesoftheracksand/orracksupports.
NOTE: Remove unused racks when using the oven for
faster preheat, improved efficiency, and optimal cooking
performance.
The number of rack positions may vary by model.
