Before Setting Oven Controls - Frigidaire Gas Range Use & Care Manual

Oven vent location
The oven vent is located below the control panel (Fig. 1).
When the oven is heating, warm air passes through this
vent. This venting is necessary for proper air circulation in
the oven which helps to provide good baking results. Do
not block the oven vent.
Oven racks
CAUTION
Always use oven mitts to protect hands from possible
burns when using the oven or cooktop. The oven, oven
racks and cooktop will become very hot.
IMPORTANT
Do not remove or attempt to arrange oven racks with
cookware still on the racks. To avoid damaging cookware
or spilling food items, always remove any cookware first.

BEFORE SETTING OVEN CONTROLS

Oven rack stop
Most oven racks slide on rack guides provided along the
oven cavity sides. The rack guides are curved near the
front of each guide. The curve will catch and hold the
oven rack stable into a stop position when an oven rack is
extended straight out from the oven.
For better access to food items in the oven, slowly pull
the oven rack straight out to the oven rack stop position
(Fig. 3) before checking on food items or removing food
dishes from the oven.
