Oven Vent Location
The oven vent is located below the backguard
(See Fig. 1 ). When the oven is
on, warm air is released through this vent. This venting is necessary for proper air
circulation in the oven and good baking results. DO NOT BLOCK THE VENT.

Air Circulation
in the Oven
For best atr circulation
and baking
results allow 2-4" (5-10 cm) around
the cookware for proper air circulation
and be sure pans and cookware do not
touch each other, the oven door, sides
or back of the oven cavity. The hot air
must be able to circulate around the
pans and cookware
in the oven for
even heat to reach around the food.
