BEFORE SETTING OVEN CONTROLS

Oven vent location

The oven vent is located below the control panel (See Fig. 1). When the oven is on, warm air passes through this vent. This venting is necessary for proper air circulation in the oven and good baking results. Do not block the oven vent.

Removing, replacing & arranging 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.

Arranging - always arrange the oven racks when the oven is cool (prior to operating the oven).

CAUTION

Always use oven mitts when using the oven. When using the appliance, oven racks and cooktop will become very hot which can cause burns.

The flat oven rack or flat handle oven rack (some models) may be used for most cooking needs. The Effortless™ Oven Rack (some models) is described later in this section. The offset oven rack (some models) is designed to place the base of the rack about 1/2 of a rack position lower than normal. This rack design provides several additional possible positions between the standard positions.To maximize oven cooking space place the bottom oven rack (some models) in the lowest rack position for baking or and when roasting large cuts of meat.

Air circulation in the oven

For best 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. 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 2 & 5 (See Figs. 2 & 3). For best results when using a single oven flat rack, place cookware on rack positions 2, 3 or 4 (See Figs. 2 & 4).
