Oven recommendations

Oven rack positions

• Rack level positions in the oven are numbered on the
front frame like an elevator. Number one level is the
lowest and number five level is at the top.
• Rack positions are general recommendations for
baking; however, if a recipe calls for a different rack
position than those given, then the recipe or package
directions should be followed.
• Allow at least 1'' (25.4 mm) of space between the pans
and the oven walls so heat can circulate around each
pan.
• Stagger bakeware so that one is not directly above
another. Allow 1½'' (38 mm) above and below each
pan.

Bake

4 -- Best for individual baked goods such as

-- Pies are best baked on rack level 2 to make
certain the bottom of the crust is done
without over-browning the top.
-- When large pieces of meat or poultry are
roasted, such as a prime rib of beef or a
turkey.

Convection bake

• To convert most recipes for baked items (cookies,
cakes, pies, etc.); reduce the oven temperature by
25°F (14 °C).
• For meats and poultry, the temperature should not be
reduced. The same temperature recommended in
recipes and cooking charts for meats and poultry
should be used.
• Low, shallow bakeware should be used with
convection cooking. This allows the heated air to
circulate around the food.
