Oven Vent
Your oven isvented through one vent
located toward the rear of the range. Do
not block this vent when cooking in the
oven-it is important that the flow of hot air
from the oven and fresh air to the oven
burner be uninterrupted. Avoid touching
the vent openings or neurby surfaces
during oven or broiler operution-they
may become hot.
Handles of pots and pans on the cooktop
may become hot if left too close to the
vent.
Do not leave plastic items on the
cooktop-they may melt if left too close
to the vent.
Do not leave any items on the cooktop.
The hot air from the vent may ignite
flammable items and will increase
pressure in closed containers, which may
cause them to burst.
Metal items will become very hot if they
are left on the cooktop, and could cause
burns.
Power Outage
^ CAUTION: oo
not
make any
attempt to operate the electric ignition
oven during on electrical power failure.
The oven or broiler cannot be lit during a
power failure. Gas will not flow unless the
glow bar is hot.
If the oven is in use when a power failure
occurs, the oven burner shuts off and
cannot be re-lit until power is restored. This
is because the flow of gas is automatically
stopped and will not resume when power is
restored until the glow bur has reached
operating temperature.
