Oven Vent Location
The oven vent is located under the control knobs. When the oven
is in use, warm air passes through this vent for proper air circu-
lation and provides good baking results. Steam or moisture may
appear near the oven vent. This is normal. Do not block this
vent.
Cooling Fan
The cooling fan may continue to run for a while even after the
oven has been turned off; this is normal.

Protective liners — Do not line the oven walls, racks, bottom or
any other parts of the range with aluminum foil. Doing so will
alter heat distribution, produce poor baking results, and may
cause permanent damage to the oven interior. During self clean
temperatures the oven will be hot enough to melt foil.
Use aluminum foil only as recommended in this manual.
Improper installation or use of these liners may result in risk of
electric shock or fire.
Oven Racks
Always use potholders or oven mitts when removing food or
adjusting the oven racks. Wait until the oven has completely
cooled if possible. Oven racks may be very hot and may cause
burns. Remove all oven racks and rack ladders before starting
a self clean cycle. Clean oven racks according to the instructions
provided in the Care and Cleaning section.
IMPORTANT!
To prevent possible damage to the oven, do not attempt to
close the oven door until all oven racks are fully positioned
inside the oven cavity.

To arrange - Always arrange the oven racks when the oven
is cool (prior to operating the oven).

placed in adjacent rack positions. Pull the oven rack
straight forward until it reaches the stop position. Lift up
front of oven rack slightly and slide out.
•
To replace - place the oven rack on the rack guides on the
oven walls. Tilt the front of the rack upward slightly and
slide the oven rack back into place.
