Convection Cooking
BAKEWARE
To cook food evenly, hot air must be able to circulate. For
traditional cooking, allow 2" (5 cm) of space around bakeware
and oven walls. For convection cooking, allow 1" (2.5 cm) of
space around bakeware and oven walls. Use the following chart
as a guide.
Roll-out Rack
The roll-out rack allows easy access to position and remove food
in the oven. It can be used in rack positions 1 through 4. Do not
put the roll-out rack in position 5 because it will not fit.
Open Position
Closed and Engaged Position
To Remove Roll-out Rack:
1. Slide the rack in completely so that it is closed and engaged
with the sliding shelf.
2. Using 2 hands, lift up on the front edge of the rack and the
sliding shelf together. Slowly push both to the back wall of the
oven so the front edge of the sliding shelf sits on the rack
guide located on the sides of the oven.
The front edge of the rack and the sliding shelf should be
higher than the back edge.
3. Using 2 hands, lift up the back of the rack and the sliding
shelf so that the back and front are level on the rack guide.
4. Pull the rack and the sliding shelf out.
To Replace Roll-out Rack
1. Using 2 hands, grasp the front of the closed rack and the
sliding shelf. Place the closed rack and the sliding shelf on
the rack guide.
2. Slowly push the rack and the sliding shelf to the back of the
oven until the back edge of the sliding shelf drops.
3. Pull the rack and the sliding shelf slightly forward until the
front edge drops and the sliding shelf is on the rack guide.
To avoid damage to the sliding shelves, do not place more than
25 lbs (11.4 kg) on the rack.
Do not clean the roll-out rack in a dishwasher. It may remove the
rack’s lubricant and affect its ability to slide.
See the “General Cleaning” section for more information.
