Operating Your Oven

Racks

You may use either rack type on any level inside the oven.

warning

To reduce the chance of burns, position the oven racks when the oven is cool. If you must reposition a rack when the oven is hot, use pot holders.

Inserting the Oven Racks

1.Insert the end of the rack with the safety notches into the oven first.

2.Attach both sides of the rack to the rack supports in the oven as shown in the diagram below.

3.Begin to slide the rack in, and then, lift up so that the safety notches clear the ends of the rack supports.

4.Push the rack all the way in with both hands.

Removing the Oven Racks

•If you want to remove an oven rack, grasp it with both hands and pull gently straight out toward you until it stops.

•To remove the rack completely, lift the front of the rack up about six inches and continue to pull it out. Lifting the rack releases the safety notches. The safety notches reduce the chances of a rack coming out of the oven accidentally.

Inserting the Optional GlideRack™ Oven Rack

You can pull the GlideRack oven rack out further than standard oven racks and still support heavy pots and pans full of food. It is great for heavier foods and the optional Dacor baking stone.

1.Hold the GlideRack oven rack with the guides fully extended away from you (see the diagram below).

2.Align both sets of safety clips (right and left) on the back of the guides with the oven rack supports as shown.

3.Begin to slide the rack in, lifting the front safety clips over the front of the oven rack supports.

4.Push the rack all the way to the back.

5.Grasp the rack in the center of the front and pull. The rack should come forward while the guides remain in place.
