Shelf Positions - GE 164 D2588P120 Use And Care Manual

Oven Shelves
The shelves are designed with stop-locks so when
placed correctly on &e shelf supp&ts, they will stop
before coming completely out of the oven and will not
tilt when you are removing food from them or
placing food on them.
When placing cookware on a shelf, pill the shelf out
to the "stop" position. Place the cookware on the
shelf, then slide the shelf back into the oven. This will
eliminate reaching into the hot oven.

Oven-Vent
Your oven is vented through
duct openings at the center rear
of the range. Do not block these
ducts when cooking in the oven—
it is important that the flow of hot
air from the oven and fresh air to
the oven burner be uninterrupted.
Avoid touching the vent openings
or nearby surfaces during oven or
broiler operation—they may
– become hot.
To remove a shelf from the oven. Dull it toward
tilt front end upward and pull shelf~ut.
To replace, place shelf on shelf support with stop-
locks (curved extension of shelf) facing up and
toward rear of oven. Tilt up front and push shelf
toward back of oven until it goes past "stop" on
oven wall. Then lower front of shelf and push it all
the way back.
Vent openings and nearby
surfaces may become hot.
Do not touch them.
Handles of pots and pans on
the cooktop may become hot
if left too close to the vent.
Do not leave plastic items on
the cooktop-they may melt
if left too close to the vent.
Do not leave any items on
the cooktop. The hot air from
the vent may ignite flammable
items and will increase pressure
in closed containers, which may
cause them to burst.
Metal items will become
very hot if they are left on
the cooktop, and could
cause burns.
