Problem Solution
Soil not completely removed after
self-cleaning cycle is completed • Failure to clean bottom, from top of oven, frame of
oven or door area outside oven seal. These areas
are not in the self-cleaning area, but get hot enough
to burn on residue. Clean these areas before the
self-cleaning cycle is started. Burned on residue can
be cleaned with a stiff nylon brush and water or a
nylon scrubber. Be careful not to damage the oven
gasket.
• Excessive spillovers in oven. Set the self-clean cycle
for longer cleaning time.
Oven smokes excessively during
broiling
• Control not set properly. Follow broiling instructions
under Setting Oven Controls.
• Meat too close to the broil element. Reposition the
broil rack to provide proper clearance between the
meat & the element. Preheat the broil element for
searing.
• Meat not properly prepared. Remove excess fat from
meat. Cut remaining fatty edges to prevent curling,
but do not cut into lean.
• Insert on broiler pan wrong side up & grease not
draining. Always place grid on the broiler pan with
ribs up & slots down to allow grease to drip into pan
(some models).
• Grease has built up on oven surfaces. Regular
cleaning is necessary when broiling frequently. Old
grease or food spatters cause excessive smoking.
Oven control panel beeps &
displays any F code error (for
example F10)
• Oven control has detected a fault or error condition.
Press CANCEL to clear the display & stop beeping.
Try the bake or broil feature again. If the F code error
repeats, remove power supply to appliance, wait
5 minutes and then repower the appliance and set
clock for the time of day. Try the bake or broil feature
again. If the fault recurs, record fault and call for
service.
Poor baking results
• Many factors affect baking results. Make sure the
proper oven rack position is used. Center food in the
oven and space pans to allow air to circulate. Allow
the oven to preheat to the set temperature before
placing food in the oven. Try adjusting the recipe’s
recommended temperature or baking time. If you
feel the oven is too hot or cool, see “Adjusting Oven
Temperature” in the Setting Your Preferences
section of this Use & Care Guide.
