USING YOUR RANGE

USING THE OVEN

Positioning racks and pans

Place the oven racks where you need them before turning on the oven.

To move a rack, pull it out to the stop position, raise the front edge and lift it out.

Be sure the rack(s) is level.

Use pot holders or oven mitts to protect your hands if rack(s) must be moved while the oven is hot.

For best performance, cook on one rack. Place the rack so the top of the food will be centered in the oven.

Where to place pans:

WHEN YOU HAVE

PLACE

 

 

1 pan

In center of the oven rack.

 

 

2 pans

Side by side or slightly

 

staggered.

 

 

3 or 4 pans

In opposite corners on

 

each oven rack. Stagger

 

pans so no pan is directly

 

over another.

 

 

When cooking with two racks, arrange the racks on the 2nd and 4th rack guides. Two sheets of cookies may be baked if sheets are switched at approximately three quarters of the total bake time. Increase baking time, if necessary.

For best results allow 2 inches of space around each pan and between pans and oven walls. 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.
