Surface Cooking for Models with a CeramicGlass Cook Top NOTE: Please read detailed instructions for Ceramic-Glass Cooktop Cleaning in the General Cleaning and Avoid Service Checklist sections of this Use and Care Guide.

Before Setting Oven Controls Oven Vent Location For models equipped with coil surface elements, the oven vent is located under the left rear surface element.
