air circulation in tHe oven
If using 1 rack, place in center of oven. If using multiple
racks, stagger cookware as shown.
For best air circulation and baking results allow 2’’ to 4"
(5,1cm to 10,2cm) around the cookware for proper air
circulation and be sure pans and cookware do not touch
each other, the oven door, sides or back of the oven cavity.
The hot air must circulate around the pans and cookware
in the oven for even heat to reach around the food.

ALWAYS ARRANGE OVEN RACKS WHEN THE OVEN IS COOL
(PRIOR TO OPERATING THE OVEN).

when using the oven.

To replace an oven rack
