Shelf Positions
The oven has five shelf supports
for normal baking and
A (bottom), B, C, D and E (top).
It also has a special low shelf
position, (R) for roasting extra
items, such a large turkey. Shelf
positions for cooking are
on Baking and Roasting pages.
Oven Moisture
As your oven heats up, the
temperature change of the air
in the oven may cause water
droplets to form on the door
glass (on models so equipped).
These droplets are harmless
and will evaporate as the oven
continues to heat up.
