Using Your Range
Continued
The oven vent
Hot air and moisture escape from the
oven through a vent just under the
backguard. The vent is needed for air
circulation. Do not block the vent.
Poor bakingkoasting will result.
NOTE: Never store plastics, paper or
other items that could melt or burn
near the oven vent, or any of the
surface burners.
Burn Hazard
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.
