Always use potholders or oven mitts when removing food or adjusting the oven racks. Wait until the oven has completely cooled if possible. Oven racks may be HOT and may cause burns.

The offset -Fig 1- and handle-Fig 3- oven rack may be used in all of the rack positions. The offset design provides additional height options. For maximum available space if preparing a large turkey, it is suggested to place the rack near the oven bottom (rack positions 1 or 2) -refer to Fig. 4. Do not extend the offset rack past the oven door when in the lowest rack position.

The fully extendable glide racks -Fig. 2- make food preparation easier. Especially when preparing heavier dishes. The glide oven rack has 2 glide tracks that allow you to extend your food away from the oven effortlessly without rubbing the sides of the oven wall.

Air circulation in the oven

For best air circulation and baking results allow a space of 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.
