Warm air coming
from oven vent
Warm air coming from the oven vent is normal. During a self-clean cycle, the air stream is increased.
The cooling fan may operate both during an oven’s cycle and after the cycle has ended, causing warm
air to exit from the oven vent.
Convection fan runs
during Bake function
It is normal for the convection fan and element to operate during Bake mode to enhance performance
and heat distribution.
Long preheat times
Not all cycles require preheating. See cycle instructions for preheat recommendations. Most cycles
preheat to 350°F (177°C) in 12 to 17 minutes. Higher temperatures will take more time. Removing
unused oven racks prior to preheating can help reduce preheat time.
Oven Lights
The oven light(s) are standard 25-watt appliance bulbs.
Before replacing, make sure the oven is cool and the controls
are turned off.
To Replace:
1.
Disconnect power.
2.
Open oven door.
3.
Turn the glass bulb cover in the back of the oven
counterclockwise to remove.
4.
Turn bulb counterclockwise to remove from socket.
