40" ELECTRIC RANGE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Remove all packaging from the oven before testing.

1. Operation of Surface Elements
Turn on each of the four surface elements and check to
see that they heat. Check the surface element indicator
light(s), if equipped.

2. Operation of Oven Elements
The oven is equipped with an electronic oven control. Each
of the functions has been factory checked before shipping.
However, it is suggested that you verify the operation
of the electronic oven controls once more. Refer to the
Owner's Guide for operation. Follow the instructions for
the Clock, Timer, Bake, Broil, Convection (some models)
and Clean (some models) functions.

Bake–After setting the oven to 350°F (177°C) for
baking, the lower element in the oven should become
red.

Broil–When the oven is set to BROIL, the upper element
in the oven should become red.

Clean (some models)–When the oven is set for a self-
cleaning cycle, the upper element should become red
during the preheat portion of the cycle. After reaching
the self-cleaning temperature, the lower element will
become red.

Convection (some models)–When the oven is set to
CONV. BAKE/ROAST at 350°F (177°C), both elements
cycle on and off alternately and the convection fan will
turn. The convection fan will stop turning when the oven
door is opened during convection baking or roasting.

When All Hookups are Complete

Make sure all controls are left in the OFF position.
