The oven vent
Hot air and moisture escape from the
oven through a vent just under the
cooktop light. The vent is needed for air
circulation. Do not block the vent.
Poor baking will result.
When the oven is ON, pans and
pan handles left near the oven
vent can become hot enough to
burn the user and to melt plastics.
Use potholders to move pans.
Never store plastics, paper or
other items that could melt or
burn near the oven vent, or any of
the surface burners.
The storage drawer

The storage drawer is for storing pots
and pans. The drawer can be removed

Personal Injury Hazard

drawer. The edges could be sharp
and may cause personal injury.
Removing the storage drawer:
1. Empty drawer of any pots and pans
before removing drawer. Pull drawer
straight out to the first stop. Lift front
and pull out to the second stop.
2. Lift back slightly and slide drawer all
the way out.
