venting is necessary for proper air circulation in the oven and good baking results.

Racks have stop-locks, so that when placed correctly on the supports, they will stop before coming completely

To remove, pull the rack out until the stop position, raise the front edge and slide out.
To replace, fit the rack onto the guides on the oven walls. Tilt the front of the rack upward and slide it back into place.
