Problem Solution
Soil not
completely
remove 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.
Poor cooking
results
• Many factors affect baking results. See baking for hints, cause and corrections.
See Adjusting Oven Temperature.
• Adjust the recipe’s recommended power levels or cooking times.
• Cookware is too lightweight or warped. Use heavier quality cookware so foods
being prepared may cook more evenly.
Flames inside
oven or
smoking from
oven vent
• Excessive spillovers in oven. This is normal, especially for high oven
temperatures, pie spillovers or for large amounts of grease on bottom of oven.
Wipe up excessive spillovers.
Surface element
does not heat
• No power to appliance. Check/reset breaker or replace fuse. If the problem is a circuit
overload, or improper connection of the armored cable supplied with the appliance,
havethissituationcorrectedbyaqualiedelectrician.
• Too low heat setting. Turn control to a slightly higher setting until element comes on.
• Incorrect control is ON. Be sure to use correct control for the element needed.
• No cookware was placed on the induction cooking zones or the cookware material
type is incorrect for induction cooking.
Surface element
too hot or not
hot enough
• Incorrect control setting. Raise or lower setting until proper amount of heat is obtained.

heating. Heavy and medium weight pans heat evenly. Because lightweight pans
heat unevenly, foods may burn easily.

• Incorrect control setting. Raise or lower setting until proper amount of heat is obtained.
Oven racks do
not slide easily.
• This oven comes with lubricated porcelain oven racks, which can remain in the
oven during the self-clean cycle. Do not clean this vegetable oil lubrication off
the racks. It is important that the sides of the oven racks always have a light
coating of vegetable oil. To maintain optimal rack performance, re-apply a thin
layer of vegetable oil to the sides of the rack after every self-clean cycle or when
therackbecomesdifculttoslide.
