side. A second shorter item can then be placed on the half rack (above the first 
shorter item). This allows for easier access to all items and better utilization of the 
oven cavity.
Tip: The removable section can also be used outside of the oven as a trivet or 
cooling rack.
Oven Bottom
Do not place food directly on oven bottom. Do not use aluminum foil or protective 
liners to line any part of an appliance, especially surface unit drip bowls or oven 
bottom. Installation of these liners may result in a risk of electric shock or fire.
Oven Vent
Free-standing Models:
The oven vent is located below the display above the rear left cooktop element. It 
is normal to see steam escaping from the vent and condensation may collect on 
the backguard and cooktop. This area may become hot when the oven is in use. 
Do not block the vent as it is important for air circulation.
Slide-in Models:
The oven vent is located above the oven door handle. Warm air may be released 
from the vent before, during and after cooking. It is normal to see steam escaping 
from the vent and condensation may collect in this area. This area may be warm 
when the oven is in use. Do not block the vent as it is important for air circulation.
Automatic Shutoff
The oven will automatically shut off after 12 hours (24 hours if the time format is 
set for 24 hour in the Select Function section).
Self-Cleaning
The oven features a self-cleaning function that eliminates the manual labor 
involved with cleaning your oven. 
Indicators and Other Features
Beep - Signals that more information must be entered or confirms the receipt of 
an entry. A Beep also signals the end of a program or an oven error.
End-of-Cycle Indicator - To indicate when a mode is finished, 3 consecutive 
beeps will sound.
Default Settings - The cooking modes automatically select the default tempera-
ture. These can be changed when a different one is needed.
Flashing Symbol or Number - Signals an incomplete setting and calls for 
another step or START to be pressed.
F Number Codes -These codes display when there is a problem with the range.
