BEFORE SETTING OVEN CONTROLS
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"
(5-10 cm) 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, fi t the rack onto the guides
on the oven walls. Tilt the front of the rack upward and
slide the rack back into place.

NOTE
Always use caution when removing food from the oven.
OVEN VENTS LOCATION
The ovens are vented at the back of the cooktop.
When an oven is on, warm air is released through its
vent. This venting is necessary for proper air circulation
in the oven and good baking results. DO NOT BLOCK
OVEN VENTS. Never close off the openings with
aluminium foil or any other material.
