Rack positions and pan placement for layer cakes in 27" (68.6 cm) Convection and Non-Convection ovens For best results when baking layer cakes on 2 racks in the upper and lower oven, use racks 2 and 5. Place the cakes on the racks as shown. Meat Thermometer Use a meat thermometer to determine whether meat, poultry and fish are cooked to the desired degree of doneness. The internal temperature, not appearance, should be used to determine doneness. A meat thermometer is not supplied with this appliance. Follow manufacturer's directions for using a meat thermometer. Oven Vent(s) BAKEWARE To cook food evenly, hot air must be able to circulate. Allow 2" (5.0 cm) of space around bakeware and oven walls. Bakeware The bakeware material affects cooking results.

A B C D E F G Single and Double Oven A. Control panel B. Oven vent C. Single oven or upper double oven G. Bottom vent Double Oven D. Upper oven E. Oven vent F. Lower oven G. Bottom vent The oven vent(s) should not be blocked or covered since they allow the inlet of fresh air into the cooling system. Also, the bottom vent should not be blocked or covered since it allows the inlet of fresh air into the cooling system and the outlet of hot air from the cooling system. Blocking or covering vents will cause poor air circulation, affecting cooking, cleaning and cooling results. 9
