Oven vent location
The oven vent is located under the left side of the
control panel (See Fig. 1). When the oven is on, warm
air passes through this vent. This venting is necessary for
proper air circulation in the oven and good baking results.
Do not block the oven vent.

Removing, replacing & arranging racks
To remove - pull the rack forward until it stops. Lift up
front of rack and slide out.
To replace - fit the rack onto the guides on the oven
walls. Tilt the front of the rack upward and slide the rack
back into place.
Arranging - always arrange the oven racks when the
oven is cool (prior to operating the oven).
CAUTION
Always use oven mitts when using the oven.
When using the appliance, oven racks and cooktop will
become very hot which can cause burns.

Types of oven racks

oven rack
The flat oven rack or flat handle oven rack (some
models) may be used for most cooking needs.
The half rack (some models) design comes with a
removable section that allows for taller cooking utensils.
The offset oven rack (some models) is designed to place
the base of the rack about 1/2 of a rack position lower
than normal. This rack design provides several additional
possible positions between the standard positions.
To maximize oven cooking space place the bottom oven
rack (some models) in the lowest rack position for baking
or roasting large cuts of meat.
The Effortless™ Oven Rack (some models) is described
later in this section.
IMPORTANT
Only the Effortless™ Oven Rack should be used in
oven rack position 2. Placing any other rack in rack
position 2 will prevent the oven door from fully closing.
