Oven Vent Location
The oven vent is located just below the control panel (
). When the oven is on, warm air passes through
this vent. This venting is necessary for proper air circulation
in the oven and good baking results. Do not block the oven
vent. Steam or moisture may appear near the oven vent.
This is normal.
Oven Racks
Flat oven racks may be used for most cooking needs and
may be placed in most oven rack positions.
.
Removing, Replacing, and Arranging Oven Racks
To arrange
- Always arrange the oven racks when the oven
is cool (prior to operating the oven).
To remove
- Pull the oven rack straight forward until it
reaches the stop position. Lift up front of oven rack slightly
and slide out.
To replace
- Place the oven rack on the rack guides on
both sides of oven walls. Tilt the front of oven rack upward
slightly and slide the oven rack back into place. Be sure
oven racks are level before using.

Protective liners — Do not use aluminum foil or any other
materials to line the oven bottom or any other part of the
oven including oven racks. Only use aluminum foil as
recommended in this manual. Improper installation of
these liners may result in risk of electric shock or fire.
•
Remove all racks and accessories from the oven
before cleaning.
•
Do not line oven walls, racks, bottom, or any other
range parts with aluminum foil. Doing so will alter heat
distribution, produce poor baking results, and may
cause permanent damage to the oven interior.
Always use pot holders or oven mitts when using the
oven. When cooking, the oven interior, exterior, and oven
racks become very hot which can cause burns.
