To avoid possible burns, place the shelves In the desired position before you turn the oven on.
The oven has 5 shelf positions.
It also has a special low shelf
position (Rl for extra large items,
such as a large turkey.
Before you begin^
The shelves have stop-locks, so that when
placed correctly on the shelf supports (A
through E), they will stop before coming
completely out, and will not tilt.
When placing and removing cookware, pull the
shelf out to the bump on the shelf support.
ACAUTION
When you are
using a rack in the iowest position (Rl, you
wiii need to use caution when puiiing the
rack out. We recommend that you puii the
rack out severai inches and then, using two
pot hoiders, puii the rack out by hoiding the
sides of it. The rack is iow and you can be
burned if you put your hand in the middie of
the rack and puii aii the way out.
To remove a sheif, pull it toward you, tilt the
front end up and pull it out.
To repiace, place the end of the shelf (stop-
locks) on the support, tilt up the front and push
the shelf in.
NOTE: The shelf is not designed to slide out at
the special low shelf (Rl position.
Plastic Items on the cooktop may
melt if left too close to the vent.
Vent appearance and location vary.
Upper Oven Vent
Your oven is vented through ducts at the rear
of the range. Do not block these ducts when
cooking in the oven—it is important that the
flow of hot air from the oven and fresh air
to the oven burner be uninterrupted. Avoid
touching the vent openings or nearby surfaces
during oven or broiler operation—they may
become hot.
■ Handles of pots and pans on the cooktop
may become hot if left too close to the vent.
■ Do not leave plastic or flammable items on
the cooktop—they may melt or ignite if left
too close to the vent.
I Do not leave closed containers on the
cooktop. The pressure in closed containers
may increase, which may cause them
to burst.
I Metal items will become very hot if they are
left on the cooktop, and could cause burns.
Power Outage
The oven or broiler cannot be lit during a power
failure.
If the oven is in use when a power failure
occurs, the oven burner shuts off. This is
because the flow of gas is automatically
stopped and will not resume until power is
restored.
Oven Light
On some models, touch the Oven Light pad
on the upper control panel to turn the light on
or off. On some models, use the switch on the lower
control panel to turn the light on or off.
