TROUBLESHOOTING
Try the solutions suggested here first in order to avoid the cost of an unnecessary service call.
Nothing will operate
■ Has a household fuse blown, or has a circuit breaker
tripped? Replace the fuse or reset the circuit.
Cooling fan runs during baking or broiling
■ It is normal for the fan to automatically run while the oven is in
use or for some time after the oven is shut off.
Oven cooking results not what expected
■ Is the proper temperature set? Double-check the recipe in
a reliable cookbook.
■ Was the oven preheated? See “Baking” and “Broiling”
sections.
■ Is the proper bakeware being used? See “Bakeware”
section.
■ Are the racks positioned properly? See “Positioning Racks
and Bakeware” section.
■ Is there proper air circulation around bakeware? See
“Positioning Racks and Bakeware” section.
■ Is the batter evenly distributed in the pan? Check that the
batter is level in the pan.
■ Is the proper length of time being used? Adjust cooking
time.
■ Has the oven door been opened while cooking? Oven
peeking releases oven heat and can result in longer cooking
times.
■ Are baked items too brown on the bottom? Move rack to
higher position in the oven.
■ Are pie crust edges browning early? Use aluminum foil to
cover the edge of the crust.
