Solutions to Common Problems
ENTIRE OVEN DOES NOT OPERATE
• When the unit is first plugged in, or when the power supply to the range has been
interrupted, the indicator lights will flash and the control will beep. To stop the lights from
flashing, turn the selector control knob to BAKE and back to OFF. The oven cannot be
used until this step is followed.
• Be sure electrical cord is securely connected into the electrical junction box.
• Cord/plug is not installed and/or connected. Cord is not supplied with oven. Contact a
qualified servicer.
• Service wiring not complete. Contact a qualified servicer.
• Power outage. Check house lights to be sure. Call your local electric company.
• Short in cord/plug. Replace cord/plug.
• Controls are not set properly. See instructions under Setting Oven Controls to set the
controls.
• House fuse has blown or circuit breaker has tripped immediately following installation.
House fuse may not be fully engaged. Check fuse and screw or engage circuit breaker
securely.
• House fuse has blown or circuit breaker has tripped after the oven has been installed
and previously operating. Contact a qualified servicer.
OVEN LIGHT DOES NOT WORK
• Burned-out or loose bulb. Follow the instructions under Changing Oven Light to
replace or tighten the bulb.
FAN NOISE DURING COOKING OPERATION
• A cooling fan may automatically turn on and off to cool internal parts. This is normal, and
the fan may continue to run even after oven is turned off.
OVEN SMOKES EXCESSIVELY DURING BROILING
• Oven door is closed. Door should be open during broiling.
• Meat too close to the broiler unit. Reposition the rack to provide more clearance
between the meat and the broiler. Preheat broil element for quick searing operation.
• Meat not properly prepared. Remove excess fat from meat. Slash remaining fatty edges
to prevent curling, but do not cut into the lean.
• Grid on broiler pan wrong-side up. Grease does not drain into broiler pan. Always place
the grid on the broiler pan with the ribs up and the slots down to allow grease to drip into
the pan.
• Broiler pan used without grid or grid cover with foil. DO NOT use the broiler pan without
the grid or cover the grid with foil.
• Oven needs to be cleaned. Grease has built up on oven surfaces. Regular cleaning is
necessary when broiling frequently. Old grease or food spatters cause excessive
smoking.
