Parts of the Oven

Getting to Know Your Range

OVEN RACKS

: Each oven comes with three 

chrome-plated adjustable oven racks. An optional 

GlideRack™ oven rack is also available (see the 

Accessories

 section).

RACK SUPPORTS

: There are six rack positions 

inside the oven chamber. The rack positions are 

numbered from the bottom counting up.

OVEN CONTROL KNOB

: Located in the center. Use 

the oven control knob to turn on the oven. One knob 

is used to control both the bake and broil burners. It 

lights when the oven is on.

IR BROIL BURNER IGNITER

: The igniter lights 

the broil burner when broiling. It normally glows 

orange from time to time during broil operation.

OVEN ON INDICATOR LIGHT

: The oven ON 

indicator light illuminates when the oven is on. The 

light cycles on and off during normal use indicating 

that the oven’s burner control system is maintain-

ing a constant temperature. 

NOTE:

 When the power 

plug is first connected, reconnected or after a power 

outage, this light flashes on and off for about ten 

seconds while the range’s circuitry starts up. The 

range is ready to use when the light stops flashing.

DOOR GASKET

: The door gasket prevents heat 

from escaping when the door is closed.

BAKE BURNER

: Located below the floor of the 

oven. It is the source of bottom heat.

CERAMIC INFRARED (IR) BROIL BURNER

: The 

infrared broil burner is the source of top heat. It is 

mounted in the oven ceiling.

CONVECTION FAN

: The convection fan circulates 

heated air through the oven chamber during the 

convection cooking process. The convection filter 

covers it. The 

CONVECTION FAN SWITCH

, on the 

right side of the control panel, turns the convection 

fan on and off. 

CONVECTION FILTER

: The convection filter covers 

the convection fan. It helps prevent the transfer of 

taste from one food to another when you are cook-

ing a whole meal with the convection fan in use. It 

also keeps the oven cleaner, especially when con-

vection baking or convection broiling. In addition, it 

covers the moving convection fan blades for safety 

purposes.

TEMPERATURE PROBE

: This probe monitors the 

temperature inside the oven for the oven’s burner 

control system. To prevent improper operation, do 

not cover it or do anything to damage it.

OVEN LIGHTS

: The oven lights are located behind 

the oven rack supports. The lights turn on or off 

only when you flip the 

LIGHT SWITCH

 on the front 

of the control panel. The bulbs are 12 Vac, 20 Watt, 

halogen.
