Explanation of Fault Codes
Your appliance is equipped with an electronic 
control featuring built-in, self-diagnostic 
software. This software continuously monitors the 
control to insure safe and proper operation. If the 
software should detect a questionable situation, a 
FAULT CODE (F plus a number) will appear in 
the display and continuous beeps may sound.
A fault code indicates that there may be a 
functional error. As a safety precaution, the 
control will automatically cancel the program.
During Normal Oven Cooking
If a fault code appears in the display and 
continuous beeps sound, press the CANCEL 
pad. Then, reprogram the cooking operation.
If the fault code reappears in the display, call an 
authorized servicer. Do not use the oven until the 
control has been serviced. The cooktop can be 
used.
During a Self-Clean Cycle
If the oven is heavily soiled, excessive smoke and 
flaring may result in a fault code. If this occurs, 
press the CANCEL pad and allow the oven to 
cool for an hour. Then, reprogram the oven for 
the clean cycle.
If the fault code reappears in the display, call an 
authorized servicer. Do not use the oven until the 
control has been serviced. The cooktop can be 
used.
