Make sure the wall coverings around the range can
withstand
the heat generated by the range.
Do not obstruct the flow of combustion air at the
oven vent nor around the base or beneath the lower
front
panel of the range. Avoid touching the vent
openings or nearby surfaces as they may become hot
while the oven is in operation. This range requires fresh
