Aluminum Foil
IMPORTANT:
To avoid permanent damage to the oven bottom
finish, do not line the oven bottom with any type of foil or liner.
For best cooking results, do not cover entire oven rack with foil
because air must be able to move freely.
Positioning Racks and Bakeware
IMPORTANT:
To avoid permanent damage to the porcelain finish,
do not place food or bakeware directly on the oven door or bottom.
Bakeware
To cook food evenly, hot air must be able to circulate. Allow 2"
(5 cm) of space around bakeware and oven walls. Make sure that
no bakeware piece is directly over another.
Racks
■
Position racks before turning on the oven.
■
Do not position racks with bakeware on them.
■
Make sure racks are level.
To position a rack, pull it out to the stop position, raise the front
edge, and then lift out. Use the following illustration and charts as
a guide.

The oven has 7 positions for a flat rack, as shown in the previous
illustration and the following table.
Flat Rack Position
Type of Food
7
Broiling/searing meats, hamburgers,
steaks
6
Broiled meats, poultry, fish
3 or 4
Most baked goods, casseroles
2
Roasted meats
1
Large roasts or poultry
For hamburger patties to have a well-seared exterior and a rare
interior, use a flat rack in rack position 7. Side 1 should cook
for approximately 2½ to 3½ minutes. Side 2 should cook for
approximately 4 to 5 minutes. Expect a moderate degree of smoke
when broiling.
IMPORTANT:
If your model has a Max Capacity Rack, the
recessed ends must be placed in the rack position above the
desired position of the food. See the following illustration.

A. Ends of rack in position 3
B. Food in position 2
IMPORTANT:
These rack positions are for flat racks. If a Max
Capacity Rack is used, the rack position must be adjusted as
shown in the previous figure.
Multiple Rack Cooking
2-rack (non-convection): Use rack positions 2 and 5 or 3 and 6.
2-rack (convection): Use rack positions 2 and 5 or 3 and 6.
3-rack (convection): Use a flat rack in rack positions 4 and 6 and a
Max Capacity Oven Rack in rack position 3.
Baking Layer Cakes
For best results when baking cakes on 2 racks, use the Bake
function with a flat rack in rack position 2 and a flat rack in rack
position 5. Place the cakes on the racks as shown. Keep at least
3” (7.6 cm) of space between the front of the racks and the front
cakes.
Baking Cookies
For best results when baking cookies on 2 racks, use the
Convection Bake function with a flat rack in rack position 2 and a
flat rack in rack position 5.
Oven Vent
A
A. Oven vent
The oven vent releases hot air and moisture from the oven, and
should not be blocked or covered. Blocking or covering the oven
vent will cause poor air circulation, affecting cooking and cleaning
results. Do not set plastics, paper or other items that could melt or
burn near the oven vent.
