Oven Vent A B C D E F Single Oven A. Control panel B. Oven vent C. Oven Double Oven D. Upper oven E. Oven vent F. Lower oven The oven vent should not be blocked or covered since it allows the release of hot air and moisture from the oven. Blocking or covering vents will cause poor air circulation, affecting cooking and cleaning results. Do not set plastics, paper or other items that could melt or burn near the oven vent. Meat Thermometer On models without a temperature probe, use a meat thermometer to determine whether meat, poultry and fish, are cooked to the desired degree of doneness. The internal temperature, not appearance, should be used to determine doneness. A meat thermometer is not supplied with this appliance. Follow manufacturer's directions for using a meat thermometer. Sabbath Mode The Sabbath Mode sets the oven to remain on in a bake setting until turned off. A timed Sabbath Mode can also be set to keep the oven on for only part of the Sabbath. When the Sabbath Mode is set, the number pads are active. On single oven models, CANCEL and START are also active. On double oven models, UPPER and LOWER OVEN CANCEL are also active. No tones will sound, and the displays will not show messages or temperature changes. The heat sources icons will appear lit on the oven display throughout the Sabbath Mode. When the oven door is opened or closed, the oven light will not turn on or off and the heating elements will not turn on or off immediately. If a power failure occurs when the Sabbath Mode is set, the oven will return to the Sabbath Mode in an untimed bake with a temperature of 350°F (177°C).
