Before Setting Oven Controls
Oven Vent Location
For models eq uipped with coiled surface eteme nts, 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.

OPERATING THE OVEN). Always use oven mitts when using the oven.
Removing & Replacing Oven Racks

the oven walls. Tilt the front of the rack upward and slide the rack back into place.
