A. Upper oven vent
B. Lower oven vent
The oven vents release hot air and moisture from the ovens, and
should not be blocked or covered. Blocking or covering the vents
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 vents.
