OVEN VENT(S)
The top vent releases hot air and moisture from the oven, and
should not be blocked or covered. Do not set plastics, paper or
other items that could melt or burn near the oven vent. Also the
bottom vent should not be blocked or covered since it allows the
inlet of fresh air into the cooling system and the outlet of hot air
from the cooling system. Blocking or covering vents will cause poor
air circulation, affecting cooking, cleaning, and cooling results.
