Preheating and Pan Placement

Baking results will be better if baking pans are
centered in the oven as much as possible. If
baking with more than one pan, place the pans

NOTE: To bake angel food cake and Bundt cake,
it is recommended that you only use the lower
oven.
Before you begin…
The upper rack, with two front handles, has
stops, so that when placed correctly on the
supports, it will stop before coming completely
out, and will not tilt.
NOTE: Use the rack with the two front handles in
the upper oven.
When placing and removing cookware, pull the
rack out until it stops.
To remove a rack, pull it toward you, tilt the
front end up and pull it out.
To replace, place the end of the rack (stop-
locks) on the support, tilt up the front and push
the rack in.
CAUTION:
When you are using
a rack in the lowest position (A), you will need to
use caution when pulling the rack out. (Be sure
to use the handles on the rack.) We recommend
that you pull the rack out several inches and
then, using two pot holders, pull the rack out by
holding the sides of it. The rack is low and you
could be burned if you place your hand in the
middle of the rack and pull all the way out. Be
very careful not to burn your hand on the door
when using the rack in the lowest position (A).
The oven has 2 rack positions.
