Multiple Oven Rack
Split rack
The right side of the split rack can be removed to accommodate a large roast on
the lower rack.
•
The removable section of the Split Rack can be used as a roasting rack in the
broiling pan.
•
Be careful when removing cooked food from the split rack to avoid burns.
Centering the baking pans in the oven as
much as possible will produce better results.
If baking with more than one pan, place the
pans so each has at least 1" to 1½" of air
space around it.
When baking on a single oven rack, place
the oven rack in position 3 or 4. See the
figure on the left.
When baking cakes and cookies on multiple
racks, place the oven racks in positions 3
and 5. See the figure on the left.

Before using the racks
The oven has three racks.
Each rack has stops that need to be placed correctly on the supports. These stops
will keep the rack from coming completely out.
REMOVING THE RACKS
1.
Pull the rack straight out until it stops.
2.
Lift up the front of the rack, and then pull it out.
REPLACING THE RACKS
1.
Place the end of the rack on the support.
2.
Tilt the front end up and push the rack in.
CAUTION
•
Do not cover a rack with aluminum foil or place aluminum foil on the oven
bottom. This will hamper heat circulation, resulting in poor baking, and may
damage the oven bottom.
•
Arrange the oven racks only when the oven is cool.
