Using the oven. To avoid possible burns, place the racks in the desired position before you 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. CAUTION . . When you are using a rack in the lowest position (A), you will need to use caution 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. The rack is low and you could be burned if you place your hand in the middle of the rack and pull all the way out. Be very careful not to burn 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. 16
