Solutions to Common Problems
SELF-CLEANING CYCLE DOES NOT WORK
Make sure the oven door is closed.
Make sure you have removed the oven racks and the oven rack supports from the
oven.
Controls not set properly. Follow instructions under “Using the Self-Clean Feature”.
OVEN SMOKES EXCESSIVELY DURING BROILING
Meat too close to the broiler element. 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. Cut 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 aluminum foil. DO NOT use the broiler
pan without the grid or cover the grid with aluminum foil.
Oven needs to be cleaned. Grease has built up on oven surfaces. Regular cleaning is
necessary when broiling frequently. Grease or food spatters cause excessive smoking.
SOIL NOT COMPLETELY REMOVED AFTER SELF-CLEANING
CYCLE IS COMPLETED
Failure to clean bottom, from top of oven, frame of oven or door area outside oven seal.
These areas are not in the self-cleaning area, but get hot enough to burn on residue.
Clean these areas before the self-cleaning cycle is started. Burned on residue can
be cleaned with a stiff nylon brush and water or a nylon scrubber. Be careful not to
damage the oven gasket.
Excessive spillovers in oven. Set the self-clean cycle for longer cleaning time.
POOR COOKING RESULTS
Many factors affect baking results. See Baking for hints, causes and corrections.
See Adjusting Oven Temperature.
Many factors affect cooking results. Adjust the recipe’s recommended power levels
or cooking times.
Cookware is too lightweight or warped. Use heavier quality cookware so foods being
prepared may cook more evenly.
FLAMES INSIDE OVEN OR SMOKE FROM VENT
Excessive spillovers in oven. This is normal, especially for high oven temperatures,
pie spillovers or for large amounts of grease on bottom of oven. Wipe up excessive
spillovers.
