Baking Layer Cakes with 1 or 2 Oven Racks
For best results when baking cakes using 2 oven racks, place
cookware on rack positions 1 & 4 (See Fig. 4). For best results
when using a single oven Flat Rack, place cookware on rack
position 3 (See Fig. 5).
Air Circulation in the Oven
For best air circulation and baking results allow 2-4” (5-10
cm) around the cookware for proper air circulation and be
sure pans and cookware do not touch each other, the oven
door, sides or back of the oven cavity. The hot air must be
able to circulate around the pans and cookware in the oven
for even heat to reach around the food.

Oven Vent Location
The oven vent is located
under the left rear surface
element
(See Fig. 1). When the oven is on, warm air
passes through the vent. This venting is necessary for
proper air circulation in the oven and good baking results.
DO NOT BLOCK OVEN VENT.
