Personal Injury Hazard

l Always position oven rack(s) in desired location before turning oven on. Be sure the rack(s) is level.

l If rack(s) must be moved while oven is hot, use pot holders or oven mitts to protect hands.

Failure to follow the above precautions could result in personal injury.

For best air circulation

Hot air must circulate around the pans in the oven for even heat to reach all parts of the oven. This results in better baking.

lPlace the pans so that one is not directly over the other.

lFor best results, allow 1l/2 to 2 inches (4-5 cm) of space around each pan and between pans and oven walls. There must be a minimum space of 1 inch (3 cm).

l Use only one cookie sheet in the oven at one time.

Use the following as a guide to determine where to place the pans:

One pan

Place in the center of the oven rack.

Two pans

Place in opposite corners of the oven rack.

Three or four pans

Place in opposite corners on each oven rack. Stagger pans so no pan is directly over another.
