Oven Vent Oven Cooking

Pilotless Ignition

Your range is equipped with pilotless ignition. With this type of ignition system, the gas automatically shuts off and the oven will not operate during a power failure.

A lighted match will not light the oven burner. No attempt should be made to operate the oven during a power failure.

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.

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 at the rear of the cooking surface.

OVEN VENT

LOCATION

Do not place plastics near the vent opening as heat from the vent could distort or melt the plastic.

Cooling Fan

A cooling fan will automatically turn on during all broiling and some baking operations. It is used to keep internal parts on the control panel cool. The fan will automatically turn off when parts have cooled. The fan may continue to operate after the oven has been turned off. This is normal.

Oven Light

Press the Oven Light pad to turn the oven light on and off. The oven light is only activated by this switch.

Oven Racks

Cooling Fan CAUTION

Do not attempt to change the rack position when the oven is hot.

Do not use the oven for storing food or cookware.

The oven has two racks. All racks are designed with a lock- stop edge.

To remove:

1. Pull rack straight out until it stops at the lock-stop position.

2. Lift up on the front of the rack and pull out.

To replace:

1.Place rack on the rack supports in the oven.

2.Tilt the front end up slightly. Slide rack back until it clears the lock-stop position.

3.Lower front and slide back into the oven.

Never cover an entire rack with aluminum foil or place foil on the oven bottom. Baking results will be affected and damage may occur to the oven bottom.
