LOCATION

Oven Vent Oven Cooking

Pilotless Ignition

Your range is equipped with pilotless ignition. With this type of ignition system, the gas automatically shuts off and the oven will not operate during a power failure.

A lighted match will not light the oven burner. No attempt should be made to operate the oven during a power failure.

Oven Fan

A convection fan is used to circulate hot air in the oven when the convection feature is selected. It automatically turns on 5 minutes after the Convect Bake or Convect Roast pads are pressed and will turn off when convection is canceled.

Note: The convection fan will automatically stop when the oven door is opened.

Oven Vent

When the oven is in use the area near the vent may become hot enough to cause burns. Never block the vent opening.

The oven vent is located below the backguard on your range.

When high moisture foods are cooked in the upper oven, steam may be visible coming from the oven vent. This is normal.

Do not place plastics near the vent opening as heat from the vent could distort or melt the plastic.

Oven Lights

The oven lights automatically come on whenever an oven door is opened. When the door is closed, press the Oven Light pad to turn the oven light on or off. A beep will

sound every time the Oven Light pad is pressed.

Oven Bottom

Protect oven bottom against spillovers, especially acidic or sugary spills, as they may discolor the porcelain enamel. Use the correct pan size to avoid spillovers and boilovers. Do not place aluminum foil directly on either oven bottom. Do not place pans on the oven bottom while baking or roasting in the upper or lower oven. You may place pans on oven bottom for broiling in upper oven only.

Oven Racks

Oven Lights CAUTION

Do not attempt to change the rack position when the oven is hot.

Do not use the oven for storing food or cookware.

All racks are designed with a lock-stop edge.

Upper oven

• When pulling the upper oven rack out to remove or check food, grasp the top edge of the rack.

Lower oven

Is equipped with one RollerGlideTM rack and two regular flat racks.

To remove oven racks:

Pull rack straight out until it stops at the lock-stop position; lift up on the front of the rack and pull out.

For RollerGlideTM rack, pull both the rack glide and rack base out together.

To replace oven racks:

• Place rack on the rack support in the oven; tilt the front end up slightly; slide rack back until it clears the lock-stop position; lower front and slide back into the oven.

Baking with the RollerGlideTM Rack (Lower oven only)

For optimal baking results when baking on one rack, use the RollerGlideTM rack.

When baking on two racks, use the RollerGlideTM rack in the top rack position, and the flat rack in the lower rack position.
