• Do not move racks with bakeware on them.
• Make sure racks are level.

To move a rack, pull it out to the stop position, raise the front edge, and then lift out. Use the following illustration as a guide.

BAKING COOKIES AND LAYER CAKES ON 2 RACKS

Baking Layer Cakes

• For best results when baking cakes on two racks, use the Bake function, a flat rack in rack position 4, and a flat rack in rack position 2.
• Place the cakes on the racks as shown. Keep at least 3″ (7.6 cm) of space between the front of the racks and the front cakes.

Baking Cookies

• For best results when baking cookies on two racks, use the Convect Bake function (on some models) and place flat racks in positions 2 and 5.

ALUMINUM FOIL

IMPORTANT

• To avoid permanent damage to the oven bottom finish, do not line the oven bottom with any type of foil or liner.
• For best cooking results, do not cover entire oven rack with foil because air must be able to move freely.

IMPORTANT

• Do not allow aluminum foil and meat probes to contact heating elements.

OVEN VENT

• The oven vent releases hot air and moisture from the oven, and should not be blocked or covered.
• Blocking or covering the oven vent will cause poor air circulation, affecting cooking and cleaning results.
• Do not set plastics, paper or other items that could melt or burn near the oven vent.
