Do not blockthese openings when cooking in the oven—it isimportant that the flow of hot air from the oven andfresh air to the oven burners be uninterrupted.• The vent openings andnearby surfaces maybecome hot. Do nottouch them.• Do not leave plasticitems on the cooktop—they may melt if left tooclose to the vent.• Handles of pots and pans on the cooktop maybecome hot if left too close to the vent.• Metal items will become very hot if they are lefton the cooktop and could cause burns.• Do not leave any items on the cooktop. The hot airfrom the vent may ignite flammable items and willincrease pressure in closed containers, which maycause them to burst.Vent appearance and location varyOven VentsShelf PositionsThe oven has five shelf supports for baking,roasting and broiling identified in this illustrationas A (bottom), B, C, D and E (top). It also has aspecial low shelf position (R) for roasting extralarge items, such as a large turkey—the shelf is notdesigned to slide out at this position. Shelf positionsfor cooking are suggested in the Baking, Roastingand Broiling sections.EDCBAROven ShelvesThe shelves are designed with stop-locks so whenplaced correctly on the shelf supports, they willstop before coming completely out of the oven andwill not tilt when you are removing food from themor placing food on them.When placing cookware on a shelf, pull the shelf outto the bump on the shelf support.
