Oven Vent(s) and
Racks
Oven Vent Location
The oven is vented at the rear of the cooktop. When the oven is on, warm air is released
through the vent(s). This venting is necessary for proper air circulation in the oven and good
baking results. DO NOT block the vent(s). Doing so may cause cooking failures, fire or damage
to the appliance.
Arranging Oven Racks
ALWAYS ARRANGE OVEN RACKS WHEN THE OVEN IS COOL (PRIORTO OPERATING THE
OVEN). Always use oven mitts when using the oven.
To remove an oven rack, pull the rack forward until it stops. Lift up front of rack and slide
out.
To replace an oven rack, fit the rack onto the guides on the oven walls. Tilt the front of the
rack upward and slide the rack back into place.

Be sure the oven is unplugged and all parts are COOL before replacing the oven
light bulb. Do not turn the oven light on during a self-cleaning cycle. High temperature will
reduce lamp life.
On some models an interior oven light will turn on automatically when the oven is opened.
The oven light may be turned on when the door is closed by using the oven light switch located
on the Electronic Oven control.
The oven light bulb is covered with a glass shield held in place by a wire holder. THIS GLASS
SHIELD MUST ALWAYS BE IN PLACEWHEN THE OVEN IS IN USE.
