Troubleshooting
Most cooking problems often are caused by little things you can find and fix without tools of
any kind. Check the lists below and on the next page before calling for assistance or service.
If you still need help, see “Requesting Assistance or Service” on page 33.
If nothing operates, check the following:
Is the range plugged into a live outlet with the proper voltage?
(See Installation Instructions.)
