Oven Cooking
Do not place
plastics near the
vent opening as
heat from the vent
could distort or
melt the plastic.
OVEN VENT
LOCATION
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.
The oven vent is located at the rear of the cooking
surface.
Oven Light
Press the
Oven Light
pad to turn the oven light on
and off. The oven light is only activated by this
switch.
CAUTION
Oven Racks
• Do not attempt to change the rack position when the oven
is hot.
• Do not use the oven for storing food or cookware.
The oven has two racks. All racks are designed with a lock-
stop edge.
To remove:
1. Pull rack straight out until it
stops at the lock-stop position.
2. Lift up on the front of the rack
and pull out.
To replace:
1. Place rack on the rack supports in the oven.
2. Tilt the front end up slightly. Slide rack back until it clears
the lock-stop position.
3. Lower front and slide back into the oven.
Never cover an entire rack with aluminum foil or place
foil on the oven bottom. Baking results will be affected
and damage may occur to the oven bottom.
Pilotless Ignition
Your range is equipped with pilotless ignition. With this type of
ignition system, the gas automatically shuts off and
the oven
will not operate during a power failure.
A lighted match will not light the oven burner. No attempt
should be made to operate the oven during a power failure.
Cooling Fan
A cooling fan will automatically turn on during all broiling and
some baking operations. It is used to keep internal parts on
the control panel cool. The fan will automatically turn off
when parts have cooled. The fan may continue to operate
after the oven has been turned off. This is normal.
Oven Bottom
Protect oven bottom against spillovers, especially acidic or
sugary spills, as they may discolor the porcelain enamel. Use
the correct pan size to avoid spillovers and boilovers.
Do not
place utensils or aluminum foil directly on the oven
bottom.
