Convection Steam Oven Rack and Rack Guide Position
Topics:
- Convection Steam Oven (CSO) rack or rack guide position
- Which way to face pans in Convection Steam Oven
- Which direction to place CSO racks, pans, or rack guides
Answer:
Oven Racks
- The oven racks can be placed in any of the four positions that are labeled on the right front face of the Convection Steam Oven.
- For older, knob control CSO models only: The open end of racks should face the front of the oven, while the closed edge faces the back.

Pans
- CSO pans should be placed in the slots in the rack guides just like oven racks.
- The slanted edge of the pan faces the back, while the square edge faces the front. This helps with heat circulation in the oven.

Rack Guides
- In all CSO models, the indentation on the vertical edge faces toward the front of the oven.
- In newer, touch control CSO models only:
- Rack guides should be oriented so the indentations on each level face upward, as shown in the image below.
- The rack guides are designed so that the back edges of CSO pans or racks catch on the indentations. These hold them in place while rotating food or checking doneness.
