Multi-Rack Convection Baking
Because heated air is circulated evenly throughout the oven, foods can be baked with excellent results using multiple racks.
To cook food on more than one rack in convection bake, use CONVECTION BAKE MULTI.
30” OvensWhen baking on 3 racks, place one rack in the second (B) position, one in the fourth (D) position and one in the 6th (F) position.
When baking on 3 racks, divide the oven into thirds by placing the offset rack in the third (C) rack position and the straight racks in first (A) and fourth (D) rack positions.

CAUTION: When you are using the offset rack (on 27″ models) in the lowest position (A), you will need to use caution when pulling the rack out. We recommend that you pull the rack out several inches and then, using two pot holders, pull the rack out by holding the sides of it. The offset rack is low and you could be burned if you place your hand in the middle of the rack and pull all the way out. Be very careful not to burn your hand on the door when using a rack in the lowest position (A).
