Oven Vents
The oven is vented through duct openings at the rear
of the cooktop. See Features section. Do not block
these openings when cooking in the oven--it is impor-
tant that the flow of hot air from the oven and fresh air
to the oven burners be uninterrupted.
°The vent openings and nearby surfaces may
become hot. Do not touch them.
o Do not leave plastic
items on the cooktop--
they may melt if left
too close to the vent.
°Handles of pots and
pans on the cooktop
t
may become hot if left too close to the vent.
o Metal items will become very hot if they are left
on the cooktop and could cause burns.
o Do not leave any items on the cooktop. The hot
air from the vent may ignite flammable items and will
increase pressure in closed containers, which may
cause them to burst.
Oven SheNes
The shelves are designed
with stop-locks so when
placed correctly on the
shelf supports, they will
stop before coming
completely out of the
oven and will not tilt
when you are removing
food from them or plac-
ing food on them.
When placing cookware on a shelf, pull the shelf out
to the bump on the shelf support. Place the cookware
on the shelf, then slide the shelf back into the oven,
This will eliminate reaching into the hot oven.
To remove a shelf from
the oven, pull it toward
you, tilt the front end
upward and pull the shelf
out.
To replace, place the shelf
on the shelf support with
the stop-locks (curved
extension of shelf) facing
up and toward the rear of the oven. Tilt up the front
and push the shelf toward the back of the oven until it
goes past the bump on the shelf support. Then lower
the front of the shelf and push it all the way back.
Shelf Positions
The oven has five shelf
supports for baking and
roasting as shown in this
illustration--A (bottom), B,
C, D and E (top). it also
has a special low shelf
position (R) for roasting
extra large items, such as
a large turkey--the shelf
is not designed to slide
out at this position. The
shelf positions for cook-
ing are suggested in the
Baking and Roasting sections.

Oven Moisture
As your oven heats up, the temperature change of
the air in the oven may cause water droplets to
form on the door glass. These droplets are harm-
less and will evaporate as the oven continues to
heat up.
