to run after the range has been turned “OFF” but may also stop immediately to turn “ON” after a while.
Arranging Oven Racks
ALWAYS ARRANGE OVEN RACKS WHEN THE OVEN IS COOL (PRIOR TO OPERATING THE OVEN). Always use
oven mitts when the oven is hot.
Oven Vent Location
The oven vent is located in the center rear on the cooktop. 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.
Never close off the openings with aluminum foil or any other material.
Removing and Replacing Oven Racks
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.

Air Circulation in the Oven
For best air circulation and baking results allow 2-4 inches (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 for even heating. 1 Oven Rack
