Because the oven door is removable, it sometimes gets out of position during

installation. To straighten the door, push down on the high corner.

● 

Surface units are not plugged in solidly.

● 

Drip pans are not set securely in the cooktop.

● 

Surface unit controls are not properly set.

 You must use pans which are absolutely flat. If light can be seen between the

pan bottom and a straight edge, the surface units 

 not transfer heat properly.

● 

Pan bottoms should closely match the diameter of the surface unit selected.

● 

Large pans hold heat close to the cooktop.

● 

Pans on the right rear surface unit block air flow from the oven vent and

cause the cooktop to get hot.
