OVENVENT Oven Vent Location

The oven vent is located under the left side of the control panel

(See Fig. 1). When the oven is on, warm air passes through the vent.

This venting is necessary for proper air circulation in the oven and good

baking results. DO NOT BLOCK OVEN VENT.

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.

results when using a single Flat Oven Rack, place cookware on rack position 2 or 3 (See Fig. 8).

Air Circulation in the Oven

For best air circulation and baking

results allow 2-4" (5-10 cm) around

the cookware for proper air

circulation and be sure pans and

cookware do not touch each other,

the oven door, sides or back of the

oven cavity. The hot air must be able

to circulate around the pans and

cookware in the oven for even heat

to reach around the food.
