Locate the two "knockout" plates, on the rear oven

panel, near the top of the oven.
Using tin snips, carefully cut the web area from the
two holes side-by-side (that secure the knockouts
to the oven). Cut all four webs on both rear
knockouts; this will allow the ventilation fan
airflow to exhaust out the rear of the oven.
CAUTION: Be sure to trim the sharp edges from
the openings after removing the knockout plates.
