IMPORTANT: To avoid permanent damage to the porcelain
finish, do not place food or bakeware directly on the oven door or
bottom.
RACKS
• Position racks before turning on the oven.
• Do not move racks with bakeware on them.
• Make sure racks are level.
For best performance, cook on one rack. Place the rack so the
top of food will be centered in the oven. To move a rack, pull it
out to the stop position, raise the front edge, then lift out.

cleaning results. Do not set plastics, paper or other items that
could melt or burn near the oven vent.
