biscuits and breads•
When using any single rack, position the rack so that the
food is in the center of the oven.

allow for proper air circulation•

Radiant Rack positions:
• When using any single rack, position the rack so that the
food is in the center of the oven.
When baking cakes or cookies using two oven racks, place
cookware as shown in Figure 13 and place racks in rack
positions 2 and 4. Dark or dull pans absorb more heat than
shiny bakeware, resulting in dark or over-browning of
foods. It may be necessary to reduce the oven temperature
or cook time to prevent over-browning of some foods. Dark
pans are recommended for pies; shiny pans are
recommended for cakes, cookies and muffins.
