Multiple Rack Cooking
2-rack: Use rack positions 2 and 4 for regular baking with the
roll-out rack in position 2.
2-rack (convection only): Use rack positions 2 and 4 for
convection baking with the roll-out rack in position 2.
NOTE: The roll-out rack in the lower oven sits midway between
adjacent rack positions. The roll-out rack should not be used in
rack position 5.
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.

To Remove Roll-Out Rack
1. Push the sliding shelf in completely so that it is in the closed
and engaged position.
2. Using 2 hands, gently pull the sliding shelf and the slide rails
at the same time to the “V” cutout. Angle the rack so that the
front is higher than the back, and then gently pull rack past “V”
cutout and then out of the oven.
To avoid damage to the sliding shelves, do not place more than
25 lbs. (11.4 kg) on the rack.
Do not clean the roll-out rack in the dishwasher. It may remove the
rack’s lubricant and affect its ability to slide.
See the “General Cleaning” section in your Owner’s Manual for
more information.
Baking and Roasting
Preheating
When beginning a Bake, Convect Bake, or Convect Roast cycle,
the oven will begin preheating after Start is pressed. The oven will
take approximately 12 to 15 minutes to reach 350°F (177°C) with
all of the oven racks provided with your oven inside the oven
cavity. Higher temperatures will take longer to preheat. The
preheat cycle rapidly increases the oven temperature. The actual
oven temperature will go above your set temperature to offset the
heat lost when your oven door is opened to insert food. This
ensures that when you place your food in the oven, the oven will
begin at the proper temperature. Insert your food when the
preheat tone sounds. Do not open the door during preheat before
the tone sounds.
