placement
Centering
baking
pans
in
the
oven
as
much
as
possible
will
produce
better
results.
If
baking
with
more
than
one
pan,
place
the
pans
so
each
has
at
least
1
to
1
½
inch
of
air
space
around
It.When
baking
on
a
single
oven
rack,
place
the
oven
rack
in
position
3
or
4.
See
the
figure
on
the
left.
When
baking
cakes
and
cookies
on
multiple
racks,
place
the
oven
racks
in
position
3
and
5.
Using
Multiple
Oven
Racks
Before
using
the
racks
Each
rack
has
stops
that
need
to
be
placed
correctly
on
the
supports.
These
stops
will
keep
the
rack
from
coming
completely
out.
REMOVING
THE
RACKS
1
Pull the rack straight out until it stops.
2
Lift up the front of the rack, and then pull it out.
REPL ACING THE RACKS
3
Place the end of the rack on the support.
4
Tilt the front end up and push the rack in.
CAUTION
Do not cover a rack with aluminum foll or place
aluminum foll on the oven bottom. This will hamper
heat circulation, resulting in poor baking, and may
damage the oven bottom.
Arrange the oven racks only when the oven is cool.

.Baking
temperature
and
time
will
vary
depending
on
the
ingredients
and
the
size
and
shape
or
the
baking
pan
used.
Dark
or
nonstick
coatings
may
cook
faster
with
more
browning.
How

Convection
baking
By
using
the
Convection
Bake,
you
will
be
able
to
cook
faster.
Convection
baking
uses
a
fan
to
circulate
the
oven's
heat
evenly
and
continuously
within
the
oven.
This
improved
heat
distribution
allows
for
even
cooking
and
excellent
results
while
using
multiple
racks
at
the
same
time.
Foods
cooked
on
a
single
oven
rack
will
generally
cook
faster
and
more
evenly
with
convection
baking.
Multiple
oven
rack
cooking
may
have
slightly
increased
cooking
times
for
some
foods,
but
the
overall
result
is
time
saved.Breads
and
pastries
brown
more
evenly.You
can
program
the
oven
for
convection
baking
at
any
temperature
between
150
℉
and
550
°F.
Tips for convection baking
The amount of time you save will vary depending on the
amount and type of food you are cooking. When baking
cookies or biscuits, you should use pans with no sides or
very lows sides to allow the heated air to circulate
around the food. Using a pan with a dark finish will
produce faster cooking times.
When using convection baking with a single rack, place
the oven rack in position 3 or 4. If cooking on multiple
racks, place the oven racks in position 3 and 5. When
baking a cake, using the bake mode (not the convection
bake mode) will produce better results.
