BEFORE YOU CALL 

• Solutions to common problems

Surface element does not heat.

Entire appliance does not operate.

• The time of day is not set. The time of day 

must

 first be set in order to

operate the oven. See “Setting the clock” in the 

Setting oven controls

section.

• Make sure cord/plug is plugged correctly into outlet.
• Service wiring is not complete. Contact your dealer, installing agent or

authorized service agent.

• Electrical power outage. Check house lights to be sure. Call your local

electric company for service.

• Be sure the oven controls are set properly for the desired cooking feature.

See 

Setting Oven Controls

 in this manual or read the instructions “Entire

appliance does not operate” in this checklist.

Oven light does not work

.

• Lightweight or warped pans used. Use only flat, evenly balanced, medium

or heavyweight cookware. Flat pans heat better than warped pans.

Cookware materials and weight of the material affect heating. Heavy &

medium-weight pans heat evenly. Because lightweight pans heat unevenly,

foods may burn easily.

Cannot move appliance easily. Appliance

must be accessible for service.

• Cabinets not square or are built in too tightly. Contact builder or installer to

make appliance accessible.

• Carpet interferes with appliance. Provide sufficient space so appliance can be

lifted over carpet.

Surface element too hot or not hot

enough.

• Incorrect control setting. Be sure the correct control is ON for the element that

you are attempting to use.

Problem

Solution

Appliance is not level.

• Be sure floor is level, strong & stable enough to adequately support range.
• If floor is sagging or sloping, contact a carpenter to correct the situation.
• Poor installation. Place oven rack in center of oven. Place a level on the

oven rack. Adjust leveling legs at base of appliance until the rack is level.

• Kitchen cabinet alignment may make range appear not level. Be sure

cabinets are square & have sufficient room for appliance clearance.

• Be sure the light is secure in the socket. Also see “Changing & replacing the

oven light” section.

Poor baking results.

• Many factors affect baking results. Make sure the proper oven rack position

is used. Center food in the oven and space pans to allow air to circulate.

Allow the oven to preheat to the set temperature before placing food in the

oven. Try adjusting the recipe's recommended temperature or baking time.

If you feel the oven is too hot or cool, see “Adjusting Oven Temperature”

section in  this Use & Care Guide.

Oven portion of appliance does not

operate.

Self-clean cycle does not work.

• Self-clean cycle was interrupted. Follow steps under "Stopping or

Interrupting a self-cleaning cycle" under 

Self-Clean

.

• Oven control not set properly. Follow instructions under 

Self-Clean.
