POSSIBLE CAUSE/SOLUTION
(1)
Poor installation. Place oven rack in center of oven. Place a level on the oven rack. Adjust
levelling legs at base of range until the rack is level. When range is level, cooktop may appear
out of alignment if countertop is not level.
(2)
Weak, unstable floor. Be sure floor is level and
can adequately support range. Contact a carpenter to correct sagging or sloping floor.
(3)
Kitchen cabinet misalignment may make range appear to be unleveled. Be sure cabinets are
square and have sufficient room for range clearance.
(1)
Cabinets not square or are built in too tight. Contact a cabinet maker to correct the prob-
lem.
(2)
Contact builder or installer to make appliance accessible.
(3)
Carpeting interferes with
range. Provide sufficient space so range can be lifted over carpet.
(1)
Make sure cord/plug is tightly into outlet.
(2)
Service wiring is not complete.
(3)
Power
outage. Check house lights to be sure. Call your local electric company for service.

This oven is equipped with a state of the art electronic oven controller. Among the many
features is a full time oven circuit diagnostics system. The controller constantly monitors the
internal circuitry as well as several crucial oven circuits to insure they are all operating cor-
rectly. If at any time one of these systems fails, the controller will immediately stop the current
operation and beep continuously (flashing an error code of “F1, F2, F3”, or “F9” in the controller
display window.

(2)
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 ma-
terial affect heating. Heavy-and medium- weight pans heat evenly. Because lightweight pans
heat unevenly, foods may burn easily.

Coarse particles such as salt or sand between cooktop and utensils can cause scratches.
Be sure cooktop surface and bottoms of utensils are clean before usage. Small scratches do
not affect cooking and will become less visible with time.

mended for ceramic-glass cooktop have been used. See “Cooktop Cleaning - Ceramic Glass
