Whirlpool 9782474A Manual Do Utilizador

To cook food evenly, hot air must be able to circulate. Allow 2 in. 
(5 cm) of space around bakeware and oven walls. Use the 
following chart as a guide.

The bakeware material affects cooking results. Follow 
manufacturer’s recommendations and use the bakeware size 
recommended in the recipe. Use the following chart as a guide.

The oven vents should not be blocked or covered because they 
allow the release of hot air and moisture from the oven. Blocking 
and covering the vents will cause poor air circulation, affecting 
cooking and cleaning results. Never set plastics, paper or other 
items that could melt or burn near the oven vents. Some 
condensation may occur; however, this will not affect cooking 
performance.

The oven light is turned on by the switch located on the control 
console. The oven does not need to be on for the light to come 
on.
