probe symbol will remain lit until the probe is unplugged from the
probe jack.
See "General Cleaning" section to clean probe.
A. Oven vent (on coil element models)
The oven vent should not be blocked or covered since it allows
the release of hot air and moisture from the oven. Blocking or
covering the vent will cause poor air circulation, affecting cooking
and cleaning results. Do not set plastics, paper or other items
that could melt or burn near the oven vent.
A. Oven door vent
Hot air and moisture escape from the door vent during certain
oven modes. Some condensation may occur; however, this will
not affect cooking performance.
