RANGE DOES NOT WORK
PROBLEM
Cooking results are
not what you expected
CAUSE
•
The oven temperature seems too low or too high. See “Adjusting the oven
temperature control” on page 13 to adjust the oven temperature.
•
You did not preheat the oven before baking (if called for in the recipe).
•
The recipe you are using may need to be altered to improve the taste or
appearance of the food.
•
You are using a pan that is not the correct type or size. Refer to a reliable
cookbook or recipe for the recommended pan type and size.
•
There is not enough air space around the pan when baking. Allow 1
1
⁄2 to 2
inches of air space on all sides of the pan.
•
The cookware is too large or too small for the surface unit being used.
The pan should be the same size or slightly larger than the surface unit
being used.
•
The range is not level. (See the Installation Instructions.)
