BEFORE SETTING OVEN CONTROLS

Types of oven racks

Fig. 1

Your range may be equipped with one or more of the

following oven rack types listed below:
The flat oven rack (some models) may be used for most

cooking needs and may be placed in most rack positions.
The flat handle oven rack (some models) may be used

for most cooking needs. May be placed in most rack

positions. Similar to the flat oven rack but comes with a

built-in handle.
The offset oven rack (some models) provides additional

stepdown positions from the standard flat rack design.

The offset design positions the base of the rack about 1/2

of a rack position lower than the flat rack and may be

used in most oven rack positions.
The half rack (some models) has a removable section to

allow for taller cooking utensils in the oven. When the

removable section is in place, the rack may be used like

the flat oven rack.
The Effortless™ Oven Rack (some models) instructions

are provided later in this section.
The bottom oven rack (if equipped) should only be used

in the lowest oven rack position. To maximize oven space,

place cookware on the bottom oven rack for example

when roasting large cuts of meat. Do not use the bottom

oven rack in any other oven rack position.

Baking layer cakes with 1 or 2 oven racks

For best results when baking cakes using 2 oven racks,

place cookware on rack in positions 2 & 5. For best results

when using a single or an offset oven rack, place

cookware on rack in position 2, 3 or 4.

Air circulation in the oven

For best baking results allow 2 to 4 inches (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. For even

heating, hot air must be able to circulate freely around the

pans and cookware (See Fig. 1).
