Parts of the Oven
Getting to Know Your Oven
A Control panel Your oven’s control panel consists of keys and a display. Use the control panel to
control all the oven’s features (sometimes called modes).
B Air intake/Exhaust slots The oven draws air in through the intake slots to cool its internal parts. The air
comes out through the exhaust slot at the bottom of the oven. Do not block or
cover the air intake or exhaust slots.
C Meat probe connector When you use the meat probe, insert the skewer into the meat and plug the other
end into this connector. See the Using the Meat Probe section on page 16 for
proper operation. On double ovens, only the upper oven is equipped with a meat
probe connector.
D Oven light There is an oven light inside the oven chamber so that you can easily see the food
inside. Press the light key on the control panel to turn it on. The bulb is 12 volt,
20 Watt, halogen.
E Rack supports There are six sets of rack supports inside the oven chamber. They support the
adjustable oven racks. They are numbered from the bottom up.
F Door gasket The door gasket prevents heat from escaping when the door is closed.
G Self clean latch The self clean latch automatically locks the oven door during the self clean cycle.
The door latches for your safety. There are very high temperatures inside the oven
during the self clean cycle.
H Broil element The broil element is located on the ceiling of the oven chamber. It is the source of
top heat.
J Convection fan* Located behind the convection lter. The convection fan blows heated air into the
oven chamber during the convection cooking process.
K Convection element* Located behind the convection lter. The convection element heats the air that is
blown into the oven chamber by the convection fan during the convection cooking
process.
L Convection lter* The convection lter covers the convection fan and element. It helps prevent the
transfer of taste from one food to another when you are cooking a whole meal. It
also keeps the oven cleaner and covers the moving fan blades for safety purposes.
M Oven rack Single oven models come with a set of three oven racks. Double oven models come
with a total of six.
N Bake element Hidden below the oor of the oven chamber is the bake element. It is the source of
bottom heat.
* Double oven models are not equipped for convection cooking in the lower oven. Therefore, there is no convection fan,
element or lter in the lower oven chamber on double ovens.
