The oven has 5 shelf positions.

It also has a special low shelf position (R) for extra large items, such as a large turkey.

Before you begin…

To avoid possible burns, place the shelves in the desired position before you turn the oven on.

The shelves have stop-locks, so that when placed correctly on the shelf supports (A through E), they will stop before coming completely out, and will not tilt.

When placing and removing cookware, pull the shelf out to the bump on the shelf support.

To remove a shelf, pull it toward you, tilt the front end up and pull it out.

To replace, place the end of the shelf (stop- locks) on the support, tilt up the front and push the shelf in.

NOTE: The shelf is not designed to slide out at the special low shelf (R) position.

Support
