Oven Air Vents
Never block the vents (air openings) of the range.
They
provide the air inlet and outlet that are necessary
for the range to operate properly with correct
combustion. Air openings are located at the rear of the
cooktop, at the top
and
bottom of the oven door, and at
the bottom of the range, under the kick panel, storage
drawer or broiler drawer (depending on the model).
