To Replace Roll-Out Extension Rack:
1.
Using 2 hands, grasp the front of the closed rack and the
sliding shelf. Place the closed rack and the sliding shelf on
the rack guide.
2.
Using 2 hands, lift up on the front edge of the rack and the
sliding shelf together.
3.
Slowly push the rack and the sliding shelf to the back of the
oven until the back edge of the rack pulls over the end of the
rack guide.
To avoid damage to the sliding shelves, do not place more than
25 lbs (11.4 kg) on the rack.
Do not clean the roll-out extension rack in a dishwasher. It may
remove the rack’s lubricant and affect its ability to slide.
See the “General Cleaning” section for more information.

Oven Vents
The oven vents should not be blocked or covered since they allow
the inlet of fresh air into the cooling system. Also, the bottom
vent should not be blocked or covered since it allows the inlet of
fresh air into the cooling system and the outlet of hot air from the
cooling system. Blocking or covering vents will cause poor air
circulation, affecting cooking, cleaning, and cooling results.
Preheating and Oven Temperature
Preheating
When beginning a Bake or Convect Bake cycle, the oven begins
preheating after Start is pressed. The oven will take approximately
12 to 17 minutes to reach 350°F (177°C) with all of the oven
racks provided with your oven inside the oven cavity. Higher
temperatures will take longer to preheat. The preheat cycle rapidly
increases the oven temperature. The actual oven temperature
will go above your set temperature to offset the heat lost when
your oven door is opened to insert food. This ensures that when
you place your food in the oven, the oven will begin at the proper
temperature. Insert your food when the preheat tone sounds.
Do not open the door during preheat until the tone sounds.
NOTE:
If the cook timer is set and the oven door is opened
during preheating, the timer will automatically start.
Oven Temperature
While in use, the oven elements will cycle on and off as needed
to maintain a consistent temperature. They may run slightly
hot or cool at any point in time due to this cycling. Opening
the oven door while in use will release the hot air and cool the
oven which could impact the cooking time and performance. It is
recommended to use the oven light to monitor cooking progress.
