Problem Possible Cause What To Do
My new oven doesn't
cook like my old one.
Is something wrong
with the temperature
settings?
Your new oven has a different cooking
system from your old oven and therefore
may cook differently than your old oven.
For the first few uses, follow your recipe
times and temperatures carefully. If you still
think your new oven is too hot or too cold,
you can adjust the temperature yourself
to meet your specific cooking preference.
NOTE: This adjustment affects traditional
bake Traditional Bake, Convection Bake and
Convection Bake Multi temperatures; it will
not affect Convection Roast, Traditional Broil,
Convection Broil or Clean.

“Crackling” or
“popping” sound
This is the sound of the metal heating
and cooling during both the cooking and
cleaning functions.
This is normal.
Why is my range
making a "clicking"
noise when using my
oven?
Your range has been designed to maintain
a tighter control over your oven's
temperature. You may hear your oven's
heating elements "click" on and off more
frequently than in older ovens to achieve
better results during baking, broiling,
convection, and self-clean cycles.
This is normal.
