block oven vent.

The flat oven rack (some models) or flat handle oven rack (some models) may be used for most cooking needs.

The offset oven rack (some models) is designed to place the base of the rack about 1/2 of a rack position lower than flat oven racks. This design provides several additional possible positions between the flat rack positions.

To maximize oven cooking space place the bottom oven

rack (on some models) in the lowest rack position for

roasting large cuts of meat.

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 cookware in the oven for even heat to reach around the food (See Fig. 3 ).

Baking layer cakes with I or 2 oven racks

For best results when baking cakes or cookies using 2 oven racks, place cookware on rack positions 2 and 5 (6 using the offset oven rack on some models). For best results when baking cakes or cookies using a single oven rack, place cookware on rack in positions 2, 3 or 4 (See Fig. 2).
