Types of oven racks
Your range may be equipped with one or more of the following oven rack types listed below:
The flat oven rack may be used for most cooking needs and may be placed in all rack positions.
The flat handle oven rack (some models) may be used for most cooking needs and may be placed in all* rack positions. Similar to the flat rack but comes with a 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.
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 a flat rack.
The Effortless™ Oven Rack (some models) instructions are provided later in this section. See important note below.
The bottom oven rack (some models) should only be used in the lowest oven rack position. This rack should be used when placing large cuts of meat in the oven.
