Using the oven.
To
avoid
possible
burns,
place
the racks in the desiredposition beforeyou turn on the oven.
The number of rack positions may
vary by model.
Before you begin...
The racks have stops, so that when placed
correctly on the supports, they will stop before
coming completely out and will
not tilt.
When placing and removing cookware,
pull the rack out until it stops.
On some models,the bake heating element is
under the oven floor. Do not place foods on the
oven bottom for cooking.
To remove a rack, pull it toward you,
tilt the front end up and pull it out.
To replace, place the end of the rack
(stop-locks)on the support, tilt up the front and
push the rack in.
IACAUTION I
Whenyou are using a rack in the lowest position
(A), y ou will need to usecaution when pulling
the rack out. We recommend that you pull the
rack out several inches and then, using two pot
holders, pull the rack out by holding the sides of
it. Therack is low and you could be burned ifyou
placeyour hand in the middle of the rack and
pull all the way ouL Be very careful not to bum
your hand on the door when using the rack in
the lowest position (A).
Aluminum Foil
Do not use aluminum foil to line oven
bottoms. The foil will trap heat below and
upset the performance of the oven. Foil can
melt and permanently damage the oven
bottom. Damage from improper use of
aluminum foil is not covered by the product
warranty.
Foil may be used to catch spills by placing a
sheet on a lower rack, several inches below
the food .Do not use more foil than necessary
and never entirely cover an oven rack with
aluminum foil. Keep foil at least 1-1/2" from
oven walls to prevent poor heat circulation.
