USING THE OVEN:

Oven Racks
Your oven has six rack positions. Recommended rack
positions for various types of foods are provided in the
Cooking Guide. Adjusting rack position is one way to
impact cooking results. For example, if you would prefer
darker tops on cakes, muffins, or cookies, try moving
food one rack position higher. If you find foods are too
brown on top try moving them down next time.
When baking with multiple pans and on multiple racks,
ensure there is at least 1½" between pans to allow
sufficient space for air to flow.
Oven Racks
Your oven may have extension racks and/or traditional
flat racks.
To avoid possible burns, place the racks in the desired
position before you turn the oven on.
Extension Racks
Extension racks have a frame that locks into the rack
supports on both sides. Once the frame is locked into
place, always pull the rack out, by its upper front rail, to
its full extension stop position, when placing or removing
cookware.
If extension racks are difficult to extend, lubricate the
racks with the graphite lubricant provided with your
oven. Remove the rack from the oven, remove debris in
the slide tracks with a paper towel, shake the graphite
lubricant and place 4 small drops on the two bottom
tracks of the left and right sides. Open and close the
rack several times to distribute the lubricant.
To order additional graphite lubricant, read the
Assistance and Accessories section at the beginning of
this manual.
To Remove An Extension Rack:
1. Make sure the rack is pushed all the way into the
oven.
2. Grasp the rack by both its upper front rail and its
lower front rail and lift straight up to unlock the front
rack locks from the rack supports.
3. Firmly holding onto both the upper and lower front
rails, pull the rack forward and remove it from the
oven.
To Replace An Extension Rack:
1. Place the rear rack locks over and onto the rack
supports.
2. Slide the rack all the way in until the rear rack locks
are secure on the rear rack supports and press the
front rack locks onto the front rack supports.
If extension racks are difficult to replace or remove, wipe
the oven rack supports with cooking oil. Do not wipe oil
on the rack slides.
