IMPORTANT: To avoid permanent damage to the porcelain finish,
do not place food or bakeware directly on the oven door or bottom.
Bakeware
To cook food evenly, hot air must be able to circulate. Allow
2" (5 cm) of space around bakeware and oven walls. Make sure
that no bakeware piece is directly over another.
Racks
■
Position racks before turning on the oven.
■
Do not move racks with bakeware on them.
■
Make sure racks are level.
To move a rack, pull it out to the stop position, raise the front edge,
and then lift out. Use the following illustration and charts as a
guide.

The oven has 7 positions for a flat rack, as shown in the previous
illustration and the following table.
Flat Rack Position*
Type of Food
7
Broiling/searing meats, hamburgers,
steaks
6
Broiled meats, poultry, fish
3 or 4
Most baked goods, casseroles
2
Roasted meats
1
Large roasts or poultry
For hamburger patties to have a well-seared exterior and a rare
interior, use rack position 7. Side 1 should cook for approximately
2½ - 3½ minutes. Side 2 should cook for approximately
4-5 minutes. Expect a moderate degree of smoke when broiling.
*If your model has a Max Capacity Rack, the recessed ends must
be placed in the rack position above the desired position of the
food. See the following illustration.
Split-Rack with Removable Insert
The split-rack with removable insert is a space maximizer. When the
two are attached, they make a full rack. The insert can also be
removed to provide room for large items such as a turkey and
casseroles. Do not place more than 25 lbs (11.3 kg) on the split-rack.
The insert can also be used on the counter as a cooling rack.
