If using 1 rack, place in center of oven. If using multiple racks, stagger

as shown.

 

 

For best

air circulation and

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. The hot air

 

must circulate around the pans and cookware in the oven for even heat to
