For most concerns, try these
first:
• Check if oven controls have been prop-
erly set.
• Check to be sure plug is securely inserted
into receptacle.
• Check or re-set circuit breaker. Check or
replace fuse.
• Check power supply.
Part or all of appliance does
not work.
• Check if surface and/or oven controls
have been properly set. See pgs. 3 & 6.
Baking results not as expected
or differ from previous oven.
• Make sure the oven vent has not been
blocked. See pg. 7 for location.
• Check to make sure range is level.
• Temperatures often vary between a new
oven and an old one. As ovens age, the
oven temperature often “drifts” and may
become hotter or cooler.
• Check rack positions. See pg. 7.
• See “Cooking Made Simple” for more
information on bakeware and baking.

smokes excessively.
• Check oven rack positions. Food may be
too close to element.
• Broil element was not preheated.
• Aluminum foil was incorrectly used. Never
line the broiler insert with foil.
• Oven door was closed during broiling.
Leave the door open to the first stop posi-
tion (about 4 inches).
• Trim fat from meat before broiling.
• A soiled broiler pan was used.
Moisture collects in oven or on
oven window (select models).
• This is normal when cooking foods high
in moisture.
• Excessive moisture was used when clean-
ing the window.
There is a strong odor or light
smoke when oven is turned on.
• This is normal for a new range and will
disappear after a few uses.
• Turning on a ventilation fan will help
remove the smoke and/or odor.
• There are excessive food soils on the oven
bottom.
