Vent appearance and location vary

Oven Vents

The oven is vented through duct openings at the rear of the cooktop. See the Features section. Do not block these openings when cooking in the oven—it is important that the flow of hot air from the oven and fresh air to the oven burners be uninterrupted.

• The vent openings and nearby surfaces may become hot. Do not touch them.

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

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

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

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

Oven Shelves

The shelves are designed with stop-locks so when

Bump

placed correctly on the shelf supports, they will

 

stop before coming completely out of the oven and

 

will not tilt when you are removing food from them

 

or placing food on them.

 

When placing cookware on a shelf, pull the shelf out to the bump on the shelf support. Place the cookware on the shelf, then slide the shelf back into the oven.

This will eliminate reaching into the hot oven.

To remove a shelf from the oven, pull it toward you, tilt the front end upward and pull the shelf out.

To replace, place the shelf on the shelf support with the stop-locks (curved extension of the shelf) facing up and toward the rear of the oven. Tilt up the front and push the shelf toward the back of the oven until it goes past the bump on the shelf support. Then lower the front of the shelf and push it all the way back.

Shelf Positions

The oven has five shelf supports for baking, roasting and broiling identified in this illustration as A (bottom), B, C, D and E (top). It also has a special low shelf position (R) for roasting extra

large items, such as a large turkey—the shelf is not
