Before Setting Oven Controls

OVEN VENT

Oven Vent Location

 

 

The oven vent is located below

the backguard. 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.

Arranging Oven Racks

ALWAYS ARRANGE OVEN RACKS WHEN THE OVEN IS COOL (PRIOR TO OPERATING THE OVEN). Always use oven mitts when using the oven.

Removing & Replacing Oven Racks

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

Arranging Oven Racks with 6 Rack Positions

To bake on a single rack, place the rack on position 3 or 4.

To bake on 2 racks, place the racks on positions 3 and 5.
