Oven Cooking
Oven Vent
When the oven is in use the area near the vent may become hot enough to cause burns. Never block the vent opening.
The oven vent is located below the backguard on your range.
When high moisture foods are cooked in the upper oven, steam may be visible coming from the oven vent. This is normal.
Do not place plastics near the vent opening as heat from the vent could distort or melt the plastic.
Oven Lights
The oven lights automatically come on whenever an oven door is opened. When the door is closed, press the Oven Light pad to turn the oven light on or off. A beep will sound every time the Oven Light pad is pressed.
Oven Bottom
Protect oven bottom against spillovers, especially acidic or sugary spills, as they may discolor the porcelain enamel. Use the correct pan size to avoid spillovers and boilovers. Do not place utensils or aluminum foil directly on the oven bottom.
