Positioning racks and pans
Place the oven racks where you need them before
turning on the oven.
To move a rack, pull it out to the stop position, 
raise the front edge and lift it out.
Be sure the rack(s) is level.
Use pot holders or oven mitts to protect your hands
if rack(s) must be moved while the oven is hot.
For best performance, cook on one rack. Place 
the rack so the top of the food will be centered in 
the oven.
When cooking with two racks, arrange the racks 
on the 2nd and 4th rack guides. Two sheets of
cookies may be baked if sheets are switched at
approximately three quarters of the total bake time.
Increase baking time, if necessary.
For best results allow 2 inches of space around
each pan and between pans and oven walls.
Extra oven rack position (roasting rack)
Use this rack position when roasting food too large 
to be placed on the first
rack position. 
For proper roasting,
follow these guidelines:
To avoid spillage,
remove food before 
pulling out the rack.
Tilt the rack up at the
front before pulling it 
over the door.
Use an adequate amount of liquid in the pan (meat
juices or water) so your food does not get overdone.

Where to place pans:
WHEN YOU HAVE
1 pan
2 pans
3 or 4 pans
PLACE
In center of the oven rack.
Side by side or slightly
staggered.
In opposite corners on
each oven rack. Stagger
pans so no pan is directly
over another.
NOTE: 
Do not line the oven bottom with foil or 
other liners. It could 
affect the oven surface 
as well as the quality of
your baking.
Do not cover the entire
rack with aluminum foil. 
It will reduce air circula-
tion and give you poor
cooking results.
Use aluminum foil to catch spillovers from pies or
casseroles by placing foil on the oven rack below.
Foil should be turned up at edges and be at least 1
inch larger than dish.
Place tent-shaped foil loosely over meat or poultry
to slow down surface browning for long term
roasting. Remove foil for the last 30 minutes.
Use narrow strips of foil to shield piecrust edges if
browning too quickly.
