Using Your Oven

(continued)

Oven Vent

Electronic Controls

Your oven is vented through ducts at the rear of the range (see page 6). Do not block these ducts when cooking in the oven—it is important that the flow of hot air from the oven and fresh air to the oven burner be uninterrupted. Avoid touching the vent openings or nearby surfaces during oven or broiler operation— they may become hot.

Vent openings and nearby surfaces may become hot. Do not touch them.

c Handles of pots and pans on the cooktop may become hot if left too close to the vent.

rI

Do not leave plastic items on the cooktop—they may melt if left too close to the vent.

Do not leave any items on the cooktop. The hot air from the vent may ignite fl ammable items and will increase pressure in closed containers, which may cause them to burst.

Metal items will become very hot if they are left on the cooktop, and could cause burns.

Oven Moisture

As your oven heats up, the temperature change of the air in the oven may cause water droplets to form on the door glass. These droplets are harndess and will evaporate as the oven continues to heat up.
