Before Setting Oven Controls - Frigidaire Built-In Range Use & Care Manual

BEFORE SETTING OVEN CONTROLS

Oven Vent Location
On model A, the oven is vented through the right rear
coil element (Figure 1) and on models B & C, the oven
vent is located through the upper front trim and
visible when the oven door is open (Figure 2).When the
oven is on, warm air is released through the vent. This
venting is necessary for proper air circulation in the oven
and good baking results. DO NOT block the vent. Doing
so may cause cooking failures, fi re or damage to the
appliance.
(Figure 1)
CAUTION
Some models are equipped with a blower which runs
in baking and self-cleaning mode to keep all internal
components at a cool temperature. The blower may
keep running even if the oven has been turned off,
until the components have cooled down.
Air circulation in the oven
If using 1 rack, place in center of oven. If using multiple
racks, stagger cookware as shown.
For best air circulation and baking results allow 2-4"
(5-10cm) 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 circulate around the pans and cookware in the
oven for even heat to reach around the food.

To replace an oven rack, fi t the rack onto the guides
