Before Setting Oven Controls
Oven Vent Location
The oven is vented at the
upper control panel
or at the
center trim
. When the oven is on, warm
air is released through the vent. This venting is necessary for proper air circulation in the oven and
good baking results.
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
, fit the rack onto the guides on the oven walls. Tilt the front of the rack
upward and slide the rack back into place.
Some models have an offset rack. The rungs on the offset rack are slightly raised from the edges
of the rack. This raised part of rack is designed to allow easy and safe removal of foods from lower
racks of the oven and prevent hands from contacting the hot oven door. Always use the offset rack
in the lower position.
Setting Oven Controls
For oven settings, refer to the timer section or the electronic oven control guide.
For models with dual cavity: Upper oven see the electronic oven control P/N 318130805, and lower oven see P/N 318200105.

caution. Use pot holders and grasp the rack with both hands to
reposition. Do not let pot holders contact the hot oven element or
interior of the oven.
