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.

On a coil element
surface, be sure the
drip bowl in the vent
location has a hole
in the center. Do not
cover the drip bowl with aluminum
foil.

When high moisture foods are cooked in
the upper oven, steam may be visible
coming from the oven vent. This is nor-
mal.

Oven Racks

All racks are designed with a lock-stop edge.
