BAKEWARE
To cook food evenly, hot air must be able to circulate. Allow 2 in.
(5 cm) of space around bakeware and oven walls. Use the
following chart as a guide.
Oven Half-Rack with Removable
Insert
The Oven Half-Rack with Removable Insert maximizes space.
When the 2 racks are attached, they make a full rack. The insert
can also be removed to provide room for large items such as a
turkey or casseroles.
The insert can also be used on the counter for a cooling rack.
Do not place more than 25 lbs. (11.3 kg) on the oven half-rack or
on the removable insert piece
Before Self-Cleaning, remove the Oven Half-Rack with
Removable Insert to keep it shiny and easy to slide. See the
“General Cleaning” section in the Use and Care Guide for more
information.
To Use Oven Half-Rack with Removable Insert:
1. Place a full rack on position 1 or 2, and the half rack on
position 3 or 4.
2. Place large items on the right-hand side of the full rack.
3. Place deeper, covered dishes on the left side of the full rack.
4. Place shallow dishes on the half-rack.
5. When finished cooking, carefully remove items.
Bakeware
The bakeware material affects cooking results. Follow
manufacturer’s recommendations and use the bakeware size
recommended in the recipe. Use the following chart as a guide.
Meat Thermometer
On models without a temperature probe, always rely on a meat
thermometer to determine doneness of meat and poultry. The
internal temperature, not appearance, is what counts. A meat
thermometer is not supplied with this appliance.
■ Insert the thermometer into the center of the thickest portion
of the meat or inner thigh or breast of poultry. The tip of the
thermometer should not touch fat, bone or gristle.
■ After reading the thermometer once, push it into the meat
¹⁄₂ in. (1.25 cm) more and read again. If the temperature drops,
cook the meat or poultry longer.
■ Check all meat in 2 or 3 places.
