following oven rack types listed below:
rack
The flat oven rack (some models) may be used for most
cooking needs and may be placed in most rack positions.
The flat handle oven rack (some models) may be
used for most cooking needs. May be placed in most rack
positions. Similar to the flat oven rack but comes with a
built-in handle.
The offset oven rack (some models) provides additional
stepdown positions from the standard flat rack design.

(some
in most oven rack positions.
models)
The half rack (some models) has a removable section
to allow for taller cooking utensils in the oven. When the
removable section is in place, the rack may be used like
the flat oven rack.
The Effortless™ Oven Rack (some models) instructions
are provided later in this section.
The bottom oven rack (if equipped) should only be used
in the lowest oven rack position. To maximize oven space,
place cookware on the bottom oven rack for example
when roasting large cuts of meat. Do not use the bottom
oven rack in any other oven rack position.

Air circulation in the oven

For best baking results allow 2 to 4 inches (5-10 cm)
bottom oven rack
around the cookware for proper air circulation and be
(somemodels)
sure pans and cookware do not touch each other, the oven
door, sides or back of the oven cavity. For even heating,
hot air must be able to circulate freely around the pans
and cookware (See Fig. 1).

Baking layer cakes with 1 or 2 oven racks

For best results when baking cakes using 2 oven racks,
place cookware on rack in positions 3 & 5. For best results
when using a single or an offset oven rack, place cookware
on rack in position 2, 3 or 4.
