STEP 2 : PREPARE THE VENTING SYSTEM

NOTE: The ductwork you need for outside ventilation is not included with your oven.
The standard ductwork fittings and length are shown in Figure 10, page 9.
THIS OVEN MUST BE PROPERLY VENTED!
You may vent your oven in one of three ways. Do Not vent into a wall cavity, an attic, or an unused area.
Roof Venting: If your oven is located on an outside wall near the roof, as in Figure 7 (3-1/4" x 10" duct)
and Figure 9 (6" round duct.)
Wall Venting: If your oven is located on an outside wall of your house, as in Figure 6 (3-1/4" x 10" duct)
and Figure 9 (6" round duct.)
Room Venting: If your oven is located on an inside wall of your house, as in Figure 8.
NOTE: If you choose the rear exhaust method (roof or wall venting), be sure there is enough
clearance within the wall for the exhaust duct.

REMEMBER AS YOU INSTALL THE VENTING:
• Keep the length of the ductwork and the number
of elbows to a minimum to ventilate your oven
efficiently. See examples on page 9.
• Keep the size of the ductwork the same.
• Do not install two elbows together.
• Use duct tape to seal all joints in the duct system.
• Use caulking to seal the exterior wall or roof
opening around the cap.
