oven vent location

The oven is vented at the upper control panel and center

trim. 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.

caution

some models are equipped with a blower which

runs in 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" (5-10

cm) 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, fit the rack onto the guides on

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

the rack back into place.
