fully extendable
glide oven rack
Always use potholders or oven mitts when
removing food or adjusting the oven racks. Wait
until the oven has completely cooled if possible.
Oven racks may be HOT and may cause burns.
The offset -Fig 1- and handle -Fig 3- oven rack
may be used in all of the rack positions. The offset
design provides additional height options. For
maximum available space if preparing a large
turkey, it is suggested to place the rack near the
oven bottom (rack positions 1 or 2) - refer to Fig. 4.
Do not extend the offset rack past the oven door
when in the lowest rack postion.
The fully extendable glide racks -Fig. 2- make food
preparation easier. Especially when preparing
heavier dishes. The glide oven rack has 2 glide
tracks that allow you to extend your food away
from the oven effortlessly without rubbing the sides
of the oven wall.
Baking layer cakes with 1 or 2 oven
racks
For best results when baking cakes using 2 oven
racks, place cookware on rack positions 2 & 4 -
refer to Fig. 4-. For best results when using a
offset oven rack, place cookware on rack position 2
or 3.

Air circulation in the oven
For best air circulation and baking results allow a
space of 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.
