Preheating and Pan Placement
Preheat the oven if the recipe calls for it.
Preheating is necessary for good results
when baking cakes, cookies, pastry and
breads.
To preheat, set the oven at the correct
temperature. The control will beep when
the oven is preheated and the display will
show your set temperature. This will take
approximately 4–6 minutes at 350°F.
Baking results will be better if baking
pans are centered in the oven as much
as possible. If baking with more than one
pan, place the pans so each has at least
1″ to 1
1
⁄2″ of air space around it.
NOTE: To bake angel food cake and Bundt
cake, it is recommended that you only use
the lower oven.

Before you begin…
The upper rack, with two front handles,
has stops, so that when placed correctly
on the supports, it will stop before coming
completely out, and will not tilt.
NOTE: Use the rack with the two front
handles in the upper oven.
When placing and removing cookware,
pull the rack out until it stops.
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.
(Be sure to use the handles on the rack.)
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).
The oven has 2 rack positions.
