BEFORE YOU CALL FOR SERVICE
Save time and money! Review the charts on the following pages first and you may not need to call for service.
Problem
Possible Cause
What To Do
My new oven doesn't
cook like my old one.
Is something wrong
with the temperature
settings?
Your new oven has a different cooking system
from your old oven and therefore may cook
differently than your old oven.
For the first few uses, follow your recipe times and
temperatures carefully. If you still think your new oven
is too hot or too cold, you can adjust the temperature
yourself to meet your specific cooking preference.
See the Special Features Section to adjust the oven
temperature.
NOTE:
This adjustment affects Traditional

This is the sound of the metal heating and cooling
during both the cooking and cleaning functions.
This is normal.
Why is my range making
a "clicking" noise when
using my oven?
Your range has been designed to maintain a
tighter control over your oven's temperature. You
may hear your oven's heating elements "click"
on and off more frequently than in older ovens
to achieve better results during baking, broiling,
convection, and self-clean cycles.
This is normal.

work

breaker tripped.
Replace the fuse or reset the circuit breaker.
