Oven Vent Location
The oven vent is located below the backguard
(See Fig. 1 ). When the oven
is on, warm air is released through this vent. This venting is necessary for
proper air circulation in the oven and good baking results. DO NOT BLOCK THE
VENT.
Arranging
Oven Racks
ALWAYS ARRANGE OVEN RACKS WHEN THE OVEN IS COOL (PRIOR TO
OPERATING THE OVEN). Always use oven mitts when using the oven.
Removing

Racks
To remove, pull the rack forward until it stops. Lift up front of rack and

results allow 2-4" (5-10 cm) around
the cookwa re for proper ai r 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 be able to circulate around the
pans and cookware in the oven for
even heat to reach around the food.
