Positioning Racks and Bakeware
IMPORTANT: Do not place food or bakeware directly on the oven 
door or bottom. Permanent damage will occur to the porcelain 
finish.
Rack position 5 cannot be used on this model.
RACKS
NOTES:
Position racks before turning the oven on. 
Do not move racks with bakeware on them. 
Make sure racks are level. 
To move a rack, pull it out to the stop position, raise the front 
edge, then lift out. Use the following illustration and chart as a 
guide.
BAKEWARE
To cook food evenly, hot air must be able to circulate. Allow 
2" (5 cm) of space around bakeware and oven walls. Use the 
following chart as a guide.   
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 
½" (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.
