Oven Vent Location
The oven is vented at the center trim. 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.
caution
some models are equipped with a blower which
runs in baking and self-cleaning mode to keep
all internal components at a cool temperature.
The blower may keep running even if the oven
has been turned off, until the components have
cooled down.
Air Circulation in the Oven
If using 1 rack, place in center of oven. If using multiple
racks, stagger cookware 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.
