3. Slowly push the rack and the sliding shelf to the back of the
oven until the back edge of the rack pulls over the end of the
rack guide.
To avoid damage to the sliding shelves, do not place more than
25 lbs (11.4 kg) on the rack.
Do not clean the SatinGlide™ roll-out extension rack in a
dishwasher. It may remove the rack's lubricant and affect its
ability to slide.
See the "General Cleaning" section for more information.

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 Vent
A
B
C
D
A. Upper microwave oven
B. Oven vent
C. Lower oven
D. Warm air
The oven vent should not be blocked or covered since it allows
the release of hot air and moisture from the lower oven. Blocking
or covering lower oven vent will cause poor air circulation,
affecting cooking and cleaning results.

B
A. Broil elements
B. Bake element
During baking or roasting, the bake and broil elements will cycle
on and off in intervals to maintain the oven temperature.
Depending on the model, if the oven door is opened during
baking or roasting, the heating elements (bake and broil) will turn
off approximately 30 seconds after the door is opened. They will
turn on again approximately 30 seconds after the door is closed.
Depending on the model, the convect fan and element may
operate during the Bake mode.
To Bake or Roast:
Before baking or roasting, position racks according to the
"Positioning Racks and Bakeware" section. When roasting, it is
not necessary to wait for the oven to preheat before putting food
in, unless recommended in the recipe.
Depending on the model, the convection fan and element may
operate during the Bake mode.
