Positioning Racks And Pans; Rack Placement For Specific Foods - Whirlpool RS675PXG Use And Care Manual

USING YOUR RANGE

Positioning racks and pans

Place the oven racks where you need them
before turning on the oven.
•
To move a rack, pull it out to the stop
position, raise the front edge and lift it out.
•
Be sure the rack(s) is level.
•
Use pot holders or oven mitts to protect
your hands if rack(s) must be moved while
the oven is hot.
•
For best performance, cook on one rack.
Place the rack so the top of the food will
be centered in the oven.
•
When cooking with two racks, arrange the
time. Increase baking time, if necessary.
•
For best results allow 2 inches of space
around each pan and between pans and
oven walls. Hot air must circulate around
the pans in the oven for even heat to
reach all parts of the oven. This results in
better baking.
