Lower Oven
Vent Location
OVEN VENT LOCATION
Each oven is vented at its upper front frame. When the oven is on, warm air is released
through the vent. This venting is necessary for proper air circulation in the oven and good
baking results.
ARRANGING LOWER OVEN RACKS
ALWAYS ARRANGE OVEN RACKS WHEN THE OVEN
IS COOL (PRIOR TO OPERATING THE OVEN). Always
use oven mitts when using the oven.
To remove an oven rack, pull the rack forward until it
stops. Lift up front of rack and slide out.
To replace an oven rack, fit the rack onto the guides
on the oven walls. Tilt the front of the rack upward
and slide the rack back into place.
TYPES OF OVEN RACKS
Always use pot holders or oven mitts when
adjusting the oven racks. Wait until the oven has completely
cooled if possible. Oven racks may HOT and cause burns.
Your appliance may be equipped with one or more of the
oven rack types shown; Flat Handle Oven Rack and Offset
Oven Rack. To maximize cooking space the offset rack can
be used in the lowest rack position to roast large cuts of
meat and poultry.

AIR CIRCULATION IN THE LOWER OVEN
If using 1 rack, place in center of oven. If using multiple
racks, stagger cool<ware as shown.
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
circulate around the pans and cookware in the oven for
even heat to reach around the food.
