Oven Vent Location
The oven vent is located in the center rear on the

the vent. This venting is necessary for proper air
circulation in the oven and good baking results. DO NOT
BLOCK OVEN VENT. Never close off the openings with
aluminum foil or any other material.

Arranging Oven Racks
ALWAYS ARRANGE OVEN RACKS WHEN
THE OVEN IS COOL (PRIOR TO
OPERATING THE OVEN). Always use oven
mitts when the oven is hot.

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 circulate around the pans and cookware in the oven for even heat to
reach around the food.
