Before Setting Oven Controls

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.

Baking Layer Cakes with 1 or 2 Oven Racks

For best results when baking cakes using 2 oven racks, place cookware on rack
positions 1 & 4 (See Figs. 2 & 4). For best results when using a single oven Flat Rack,
place cookware on rack position 2 or 3 (See Figs. 2 & 5).

Oven Racks

Your range is equipped with one or more Flat Oven Rack(s). Place the rack(s)
into the positions shown in Fig. 2. See the Recommended Rack Positions in the
chart above.

Oven Vent Location

The oven vent is located below the backguard (See Fig. 1). When the oven is
on, warm air is released through this vent. This venting is necessary for proper air
circulation in the oven and good baking results. DO NOT BLOCK THE VENT.

Arranging Oven Racks

ALWAYS ARRANGE OVEN RACKS WHEN THE OVEN IS COOL (PRIOR TO
OPERATING THE OVEN). Always use oven mitts when using the oven.

Removing & Replacing Oven Racks

To remove, pull the rack forward until it stops. Lift up front of rack and slide out.
To replace, fit the rack onto the guides on the oven walls. Tilt the front of the rack
upward and slide the rack back into place.
