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. 7
