Oven Light
The light comes on when the oven door is opened or
when the control panel light switch is turned on.
Oven Vent
When the oven is on, heated air moves through a vent
above the door or between door and air grille.
The vent area could get hot during oven use.
The vent is needed for proper air flow in the oven and
good baking results. Do not block this vent.
Oven Fan
This unit is equipped with a fan which automatically
turns on whenever the oven is set for cooking or
cleaning. The fan will automatically turn off when the
unit has cooled.
Oven Shelves
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 placing food on them.
When placing cookware on a shelf, pull the shelf out
to the “stop” position. 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 front end upward and pull shelf out.
