Oven Vent Location
The oven vent is located below the backguard
(See Fig. 1). When the oven is on,
warm air is released through this vent. This venting is necessary for proper air
circulation in the oven and good baking results. DO NOT BLOCK THE VENT.

Baking
Layer Cakes with 1 or 2 Oven Racks
For best results when baking cakes using 2 oven racks, place cookware on rack
positions 1 & 4 (See Figs. 2 & 4). For best results when using a single oven Flat Rack,
place cookware on rack position 2 or 3 (See Figs. 2 & 5).
Air Circulation
in the Oven
For best air circulation and baking
results allow 2-4" (5-10 cm) around
the cookware for proper air
circulation and be sure pans and
cookware do not touch each other,
the oven door, sides or back of the
oven cavity. The hot air must be able
to circulate around the pans and
cookware in the oven for even heat
to reach around the food.
