Troubleshooting

Oven Fails To Operate: No Heat

1. 

If the indicator light does not illuminate, check power supply.

2. 

Check indicator light for continuity. If defective, replace indicator light.

3. 

Check thermostat on front. If indicator light illuminates, power is being 
supplied through thermostat to dual heating elements. Turn knob from 
low to high setting and return. Definite "snap" should be heard at low 
temperature end and indicator light should turn off and on with each "snap" 
cycle. If "snap" is not heard and indicator light fails to operate, replace entire 
thermostat. (See Replacement Parts section in this manual.)

4. 

If thermostat operates satisfactorily, check continuity of heating elements 
at bootom of oven. (Access through removable lower panels.) Failure of one 
element will prevent oven operation on 240 volts. If operating on 120 volts, 
failure of one element will cause very slow heating. If defective, remove oven 
from power source and replace both elements.

Oven Operates: Overheats 

1. 

Check thermostat operation as in Step 3 (Oven Fails to Operate: No Heat) and 
Step 2 (Oven Operates: Temperature Setting Off).

Oven Operates: Temperature Setting 

"OFF"

1. 

Check thermostat operation as in Step 3 (Oven Fails to Operate: No Heat).

2. 

If thermostat continues to operate satisfactorily, recalibrate per "Checking 
Thermostat Calibration" section below.

Checking Thermostat Calibration

Each thermostat is adjusted at the factory and calibrated on precision instruments 
to control temperatures accurately. Adjustment or re-calibration is not needed 
unless the thermostat has been mishandled in transit or changed or abused while 
in service.
To check calibration:

1. 

Use a good grade mercury thermometer to check temperature. For griddle 
control, use a disc type thermocouple. Put a couple drops of oil on griddle 
surface plate and place thermocouple disc flat into the oil.

2. 

Turn the dial of the termostat to 300° mark.

3. 

Allow enough time for temperature to stabilize or until several temperature 
readings are identical.

   CAUTION

• 

When replacing heating elements, always replace both elements. Pairing 

of one new element with an old element will cause rapid failure of old 

element.
