Multiple Oven Racks

Single Oven Rack

BEFORE SETTING OVEN CONTROLS

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"

(5-10cm) 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.

Always use caution when removing food from the oven.

Oven Vent Location

On model A, the oven is vented through the right rear

coil element (Figure 1) and on models B & C, the oven

vent is located through the upper front trim and

visible when the oven door is open (Figure 2).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 the vent. Doing

so may cause cooking failures, fire or damage to the

appliance.
