Before Setting Oven Controls
I i
Oven Vent Location
For models equipped with coiled surface elements, the oven vent is located
under the left rear surface element. When the oven is on, warm air flows
through the left rear element. This venting is necessary for proper air
circulation in the oven and good baking results. DO NOT BLOCK THE
OVEN VENT.
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.
Removing & Replacing Oven Racks
To remove, pull the rack forward until it stops. Lift up front of rack and slide out. To replace, fit the rack onto the
guides on the oven walls. Tilt the front of the rack upward and slide the rack back into place.

Setting Surface Controls
To Operate the Surface Elements:
1. Place cooking utensil on the surface element.
2. Push in and turn the surface control knob in either direction to the desired setting. Start most cooking operations
on a higher setting and then turn to a lower setting to finish cooking. The control knobs do not have to be set
exactly on a particular setting. Use the settings as a guide and adjust the control knob as needed.
3. When cooking is completed, turn the surface element off before removing the pan. Note: The surface "Element
On" indicator light(s) will glow when one or more elements are turned on. A quick glance at these indicator light(s)
when cooking is finished is an easy check to be sure all surface elements are turned off.
