Before Setting Oven Controls

Oven Vent Location

The oven vent is located below the backguard (See Fig. 1). When the oven is on, warm air is released through this vent. This venting is necessary for proper air circulation in the oven and good baking results. DO NOT BLOCK THE VENT.

Removing & Replacing Oven Racks

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

Fig. 1To replace, fit the rack onto the guides on the oven walls. Tilt the front of the rack upward and slide the rack back into place.

Oven Racks

Your range is equipped with one or more Flat Oven Rack(s). Place the rack(s) into the positions shown in Fig. 2. Refer to the following Recommended Rack Positions for Broiling, Baking & Roasting for complete information.

For best results when baking cakes using 2 oven racks, place cookware on rack positions 1 & 4 (See Figs. 3 & 4). For best results when using a single oven Flat Rack, place cookware on rack position 2 or 3 (See Figs. 3 & 5).

Air Circulation in the Oven

For best air circulation and baking

 

 

results allow 2-4" (5-10 cm) around

 

 

the cookware for proper air

 

 

circulation and be sure pans and

 

 

cookware do not touch each other,

 

 

the oven door, sides or back of the

 

 

oven cavity. The hot air must be

 

 

able to circulate around the pans

 

 

and cookware in the oven for even

 

 

heat to reach around the food.
