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.

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