Using the oven racks
The rack positions
Your oven range comes with 2 racks and 7 rack positions. The rack positions are delineated by
rack guides which support the racks. Each rack guide has a stop that prevents the rack from
loosening during the oven's operation. Each rack has stoppers that need to be placed correctly
on the rack guides. The stoppers prevent the racks from accidently coming out of the oven
completely when you pull the racks out.

CAUTION
•
Do not cover an oven rack with aluminum foil. This will hamper heat circulation, resulting in
poor baking.
•
Do not place aluminum foil on the oven bottom. The aluminum can melt and damage the
oven.
•
Arrange the oven racks only when the oven is cool.
•
When placing an oven rack in the top-most rack position (position 7), make sure the rack is
situated stably on the embossed stop.
NOTE
•
The Oven Rack Settings table is for reference only.
•
We recommend cooking pizza and pies using the 2nd rack position for crispy bottoms.
