Problem

Possible Cause

What To Do

Oven light does not
work

Light bulb is loose or defective.

Tighten or replace bulb.

Switch operating light is broken.

Call for service.

Excessive smoking
during broiling

Food too close to burner element.

Lower the rack position of the food.

“Burning” or “oily”
odor emitting from
the vent

This is normal in a new oven and will
disappear in time.

See the Cleaning the Oven section. This is temporary.

Strong odor

An odor from the oven insulation is
normal for the first few times the oven
is used.

This is temporary and will go away after several uses.

My oven door glass
appears to be
"tinted" or have a
"rainbow" color. Is
this defective?

No. The inner oven glass is coated with
a heat barrier to reflect the heat back
into the oven to prevent heat loss and
keep the outer door cool while baking.

This is normal. Under certain light or angles, you may
see this tint or rainbow color.
