guide (#1) to the top (#4).
• Check cooking charts for best rack positions to use
when cooking.
• Make sure that the racks are level once they are in
position.
• The racks are designed to stop when pulled
forward to their limit.
• CAUTION! Never use aluminum foil to cover the
oven racks or to line the oven. Heat trapped under
the foil can cause damage to the oven liner.

the oven on. Always use oven mitts when the oven is

3 rack baking: Use positions 2, 3 and 4.
When baking four cake layers at the same time,
stagger pans so that one pan is not directly above
another. For best results, place cakes on front of upper
rack and back of lower rack (See graphic at right).
Allow 1" -1 1/2" air space around pans.
