BEFORE SETTING OVEN CONTROLS

IMPORTANT
Your IKEA wall oven has many features that allow
you to customize the way your oven works.
Take time to read this section for important safety
information and to become familiar with the many
menu option settings starting on page 14.
Oven Vent Location
The oven is vented as shown below. When the oven
is on, warm air is released through 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. Steam or moisture may
appear near the oven vent. This is normal.

WARNING
Protective Liners — Do not use aluminum foil or
any other material or liners to line the oven bot-
tom, walls, racks or any other part of the range.
Doing so will alter the heat distribution, produce
poor baking results, and possibly cause permanent
damage to the oven interior. Improper installation
of these liners may result in risk of electric shock
or fire. During self clean, temperatures in the oven
will be hot enough to melt foil.

CAUTION
Always use pot holders or oven mitts when using
the oven. When cooking, the oven interior, oven
exterior, oven racks, and cooktop will become
very hot which can cause burns.
Remove all oven racks before starting a self clean
cycle. If oven racks are left inside the oven during
a cleaning cycle, the slide ability of the oven racks
may be damaged and all of the oven racks will
lose their shiny finish.
To prevent possible damage to the oven, do not
attempt to close the oven door until all the oven
racks are fully positioned back inside the oven
cavity.
Types of Oven Rack

Figure 2: Oven rack types
• Flat oven racks may be used for most cook-
ing needs and may be placed in most oven rack
positions.
• The fully extendable glide rack makes food
preparation easier. This oven rack has glide
tracks that allow the rack to be pulled away
from the oven without rubbing the sides of the
oven wall. See glide rack instructions on next
page.
