cleaning only.

The oven has a special low rack
(R) position just above the oven
bottom. Use it when extra cooking
space is needed, for example,
when cooking a large turkey. The
rack is not designed to slide out at
this position.

and.never.entirely.cover.an.oven.rack.with.
aluminum.foil ..Keep.foil.at.least.1-1/2”.from.

When baking on a single rack, use
the rack position from the chart for
your type of food. Baking results
will be better if baking pans are
centered in the oven as much as
possible.
When baking four cake layers at a
time,
use racks A and C.
Place the
lower pans at the back of the rack
and the upper pans to the front of
the rack shown so that one pan is
not directly above another.
