Single Oven Rack

BEFORE SETTING OVEN CONTROLS

Oven vent location

The oven is vented at the center rear of the cooktop.

When the oven is on, warm air is released through the

vent. This venting is necessary for proper air circulation

in the oven and good baking results. DO NOT BLOCK

OVEN VENT. Never close off the openings with

aluminium foil or any other material.

CAUTION

Some models are equipped with a blower

which runs in baking and self-cleaning mode

to keep all internal components at a cool

temperature. The blower may keep running

even if the oven has been turned off, until the

components have cooled down.

Air circulation in the oven

If using 1 rack, place in center of oven. If using multiple

racks, stagger cookware as shown.

For best air circulation and baking results allow 2-4" (5,1-

10,2cm) 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 circulate around the pans and cookware in the

oven for even heat to reach around the food.

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.

To remove an oven rack, pull the rack forward until it

stops. Lift up front of rack and slide out.

To replace an oven rack, fi t the rack onto the guides

on the oven walls. Tilt the front of the rack upward and

slide the rack back into place.
