Whirlpool WOD51EC0AS Handbuch

For best results when baking layer cakes on 2 racks in the upper 
and lower oven, use racks 2 and 5. Place the cakes on the racks 
as shown.

To cook food evenly, hot air must be able to circulate. Allow 
2" (5.0 cm) of space around bakeware and oven walls. 

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.

Use a meat thermometer to determine whether meat, poultry and 
fish are cooked to the desired degree of doneness. The internal 
temperature, not appearance, should be used to determine 
doneness. A meat thermometer is not supplied with this 
appliance. Follow manufacturer's directions for using a meat 
thermometer.

The oven vent(s) should not be blocked or covered since they 
allow the inlet of fresh air into the cooling system. Also, the 
bottom vent should not be blocked or covered since it allows the 
inlet of fresh air into the cooling system and the outlet of hot air 
from the cooling system. Blocking or covering vents will cause 
poor air circulation, affecting cooking, cleaning and cooling 
results.
