Multiple Rack Cooking
2-rack: Use rack positions 2 and 4. When baking 2 racks of pizza,
stagger pizza so that the pizza on rack position 2 is toward the
right side of the oven and the pizza on rack position 4 is toward
the left side of the oven.
Baking Layer Cakes on 2 Racks
For best results when baking cakes on 2 racks, use rack
positions 2 and 4. Place the cakes on the racks as shown.
BAKEWARE
To cook food evenly, hot air must be able to circulate. Allow
2" (5.0 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
A meat thermometer is not supplied with this appliance. Follow
manufacturer's directions for using a meat thermometer. On
models without a temperature probe, 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.
Oven Vents
The oven vents release hot air and moisture from the ovens, and
should not be blocked or covered. Blocking or covering the vents
will cause poor air circulation, affecting cooking and cleaning
results. Do not set plastics, paper or other items that could melt
or burn near the oven vents.
