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 below the backguard vent shield
on your range.
Oven Light
Press the Oven Light switch to turn the oven light on
and off.
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.
Never
place utensils or foil directly on the oven bottom.
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.
Your oven has two racks. They 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 support 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.
Do not 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.
Rack Positions
RACK 5 (highest
position): Used for
toasting bread or
broiling thin, non-fatty

RACK 4 : Used for most
two-rack baking.
RACK 3 : Used for most
baked goods on a
cookie sheet or jelly roll pan, layer cakes, fruit pies, or frozen
convenience foods.

baking loaves of bread, bundt cakes, custard pies or two-rack

Pilotless Ignition
Your range is equipped with pilotless ignition. With this type of
ignition system, the gas automatically shuts off and
the oven

A lighted match will not light the oven burner. No attempt
should be made to operate the oven during a power
failure.
CAUTION
Do not attempt to slide racks out when they are placed in the
roasting position.
MULTIPLE RACK COOKING:

Important: Never place pans directly on the oven bottom.
Half Rack Accessory
A half rack is available as an accessory
to increase oven capacity. It fits in the
upper left portion of the oven and
provides space for a vegetable dish
when a large roaster is on the lower
rack. Contact your dealer for the
