To avoid possible burns, place the racks in
the desired position before you turn the oven on.

The racks have stop-locks, so that when
placed correctly on the rack supports
(A through E), they will stop before
coming completely out, and will not tilt.
When placing and removing cookware,
pull the rack out to the bump on the
rack support.

To remove a rack, pull it toward you,
tilt the front end up and pull it out.
To replace, place the end of the rack
(stop-locks) on the support, tilt up
the front and push the rack in.
NOTE: The rack is not designed to slide
out at the special low rack (R) position.

The oven cycling light glows until the
