BEFORE SETTING OVEN CONTROLS
Oven Vent Location
The oven vent is located under the controls. When the oven
is in use, hot air passes through this vent for proper air
circulation and provides good baking results in the upper
oven. Steam or moisture may appear near the oven vent.
This is normal. Do not block this vent.
Cooling Fan: The fan may continue to run for a while even
after the oven has been turned off; this is normal.
Installing Ladder Racks
1. Place the ladder racks hook side up into the support
brackets located on the sides of the oven (
Figure 8).
2. Place oven racks into desired positions.
Note: To aid installation and movement of racks, apply a
thin layer of cooking oil to the sides of the oven racks that
contact the ladder supports.
Protective liners — Do not line the oven walls, racks,
bottom or any other parts of the range with aluminum foil.
Doing so will alter heat distribution, produce poor baking
results, and may cause permanent damage to the oven
interior. During self clean temperatures the oven will be hot
enough to melt foil. Use aluminum foil only as recom
-
mended in this manual. Improper installation or use of these
liners may result in risk of electric shock or fire.
Oven Racks
Your appliance is equipped with flat handle oven racks and
can be placed in most oven rack positions.
Arranging, Removing, and Replacing Oven Racks
IMPORTANT! Remove all oven racks, rack ladders, and
any other accessories from the oven before starting a self
clean cycle.
• 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
the oven walls. Tilt the front of the rack upward slightly
and slide the oven rack back into place.
• For ease of removal, racks should not be placed in
adjacent rack positions.
IMPORTANT!
To prevent possible damage to the oven, do not attempt to
close the oven door until all oven racks are fully positioned
inside the oven cavity.

• Always use potholders or oven mitts when removing
food or adjusting the oven racks. Wait until the oven
has completely cooled if possible. Oven racks may be
very hot and may cause burns. Remove all oven
racks and rack ladders before starting a self clean
cycle. Clean oven racks according to the instructions
provided in the Care and Cleaning section this
manual.
