Baking Layer Cakes with 1 or 2 Oven Racks
For best results when baking cakes using 2 oven racks, place cookware on rack positions 2 & 5 as shown (for models with a
visible bake element). For models with a hidden bake element place oven racks in positions 3 (Flat rack) & 6 with the Offset rack
if equipped (Refer to Fig. 4).
For best results when using a single oven rack, place cookware on rack position 4 (for all models - Refer to Fig. 5).
Air Circulation in the Oven
For best air circulation and baking
results allow 2-4" (5-10 cm) around
the cookware for proper air circulation
and be sure pansand cookware do not
touch each other, the oven door, sides
or back of the oven cavity. The hot air
must be able to circulate around the
|
pans and cookware in the oven for
even heat to reach around the food.
