Before Setting Oven Controls

Oven Vent Location

The oven vent is located under the left side of the control panel (See Fig. 1). When the oven is on, warm air passes through the vent. This venting is necessary for proper air circulation in the oven and good baking results. DO NOT BLOCK OVEN VENT.

 

Removing & Replacing Oven Racks

 

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

 

out. To replace, fit the rack onto the guides on the oven walls. Tilt the front
