Three chrome-plated Smooth-Glide™ oven racks and one chrome plated conventional oven rack are provided with your range. To bake on a single rack, place the rack in position 3. To bake on 2 racks, place the racks in position 2 and 7. To bake on 3 racks, place the racks in position 1, 3 and 7. See Figure 19.

Baking Layer Cakes with 1 or 2 Oven Racks For best results when baking cakes or cookies using 2 oven racks, place cookware on rack positions 2 and 7 (see figure 20). For best results when using a single oven rack, place cookware on rack position 3 (see figure 21). Figure 20 Figure 21 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.
