Before Setting Oven Controls Fig. 1 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. Removing & Replacing Oven Racks To remove, pull the rack forward until it stops. Lift up front of rack and slide out. To replace, fit the rack onto the guides on the oven walls. Tilt the front of the rack upward and slide the rack back into place. Arranging Oven Racks ALWAYS ARRANGE OVEN RACKS WHEN THE OVEN IS COOL (PRIOR 6 TO OPERATING THE OVEN). Always use oven mitts when using the oven. 5 Recommended Rack Positions for Broiling, Baking & Roasting: Food Rack Position Broiling hamburgers & steaks Broiling meats, chicken or fish See Broil section See Broil section Cookies, cakes, pies, biscuits & muffins 3 or 4 Frozen pies, angel food cake, yeast, bread, casseroles, small cuts of meat or poultry Turkey, roast or ham (use Roasting Shelf rack) 1 or 2 4 3 2 1 Roasting Shelf positioned incorrectly Fig. 3 Types of Oven Racks & Roasting Shelf Your range may be equipped with one or more of the oven rack types shown; Flat Oven Rack (Fig. 5) and Roasting Shelf (Fig. 6; some models). To maximize cooking space the Roasting Shelf should be used in the lowest rack position to roast large cuts of meat and poultry (See Fig. 2). Flat Oven Rack Fig. 5 Fig. 2 Correct Roasting Shelf position Fig. 4 Roasting Shelf Fig. 6 Place Roasting Shelf with care (some models; See Fig. 2). Be sure the Roasting Shelf is level and the front end of the shelf rests over the front ends of the oven rack glides on both sides of the oven interior (See Figs. 3 & 4). 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 & 5 (See Fig. 7). For best results when using a single oven Flat Rack, place cookware on rack position 3 or 4 (See Fig.8). 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. Fig. 7 Fig. 8 6
