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.

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 (5 cm) 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.
