Types of oven racks
Your appliance may be equipped with one or more of
the oven rack types shown; Flat Handle Oven Rack,
Fully Extendable Luxury-Glide
TM
Oven Rack and
Offset Oven Rack.
Flat oven racks may be used for most cooking needs
and may be placed in most oven rack positions.
The fully extendable Luxury-Glide
TM
oven rack allows
you to effortlessly extend your food away from the oven.
To maximize cooking space the Offset Oven Rack
can be used in the lowest rack position to roast large
cuts of meat and poultry.
The oven is vented
through its upper front
frame. When the oven is
on, warm air is released
through the vent. This
venting is necessary for
proper air circulation in
the oven and good baking
results. Do not block
oven vent.
Oven Cooking
1 Oven Rack
Multiple Oven Racks
Some models are equipped with a blower which
runs in baking and self-cleaning mode to keep
all internal components at a cool temperature.
The blower may keep running even if the oven
has been turned off, until the components have
cooled down.
Always use pot holders or oven mitts when
adjusting the oven racks. Wait until the oven
has completely cooled if possible. Oven racks
may HOT and cause burns.
Oven Vent
If using 1 rack, place in center of oven. If using
multiple racks, stagger cookware as shown.
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 circulate around
the pans and cookware in the oven for even heat to
reach around the food.
