• Clean was interrupted. Review instructions in Clean section.
• Excessive spills on oven bottom. Clean before starting Clean.
• Oven control not set properly. Review instructions in Clean section
• Failure to clean soil from the oven frame, the door liner outside the oven door
gasket and the small area at the front center of the oven bottom. These areas are
not in the self-cleaning area, but get hot enough to burn on residue. Clean these
areas before starting the clean cycle. 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.
Fan noise occurring after the oven
is turned off.
• Some models are equipped with a cooling fan that runs during the cooking process
to cool internal electronic components. It is normal for this fan to continue to run for
an extended period of time, even when the oven is off.
Convection fan does not rotate. • Oven door is open. Convection fan will turn off if oven door is opened when
Convection is active. Close oven door.
• The convection fan will turn on after the oven has been heating for 6 minutes, and
remain on during the cooking process.
Surface burners do not ignite. • Surface control knob was not completely turned to Lite. Push in and turn the
surface control knob to Lite until burner ignites and then turn control knob to
desired flame size.
• Improper burner assembly. If burner cap is not assembled properly, the burner will
not light. Refer to
“Burner Caps and Burner Grates Assembly” on page 10.
• Burner ports are clogged. With the burner OFF, use a small-gauge wire or needle to
burner head slots and ignition ports.
• Range power cord is disconnected from outlet (electric ignition models only). Be
sure power cord is securely plugged into the power outlet. Electrical power outage.
Burners may be lit manually. See
“Operating the gas surface controls” on page
page 13.
Surface burner flame uneven or
only part way around the burner
cap.
• Burner slots or ports are clogged. With the surface burner OFF, clean ports with a
small gauge wire or needle.
• Moisture is present after cleaning. Lightly fan the flame and allow burner to operate
until flame is full.
• Burner caps are not seated properly. Check that all burner caps are level and
seated correctly on burner heads.
Surface burner flame is too high. • Surface control knob is set too high. Adjust to lower flame setting.
• Burner caps are not seated properly. Check that all surface burner caps are level
and seated correctly on surface burner heads.
• Incorrect L.P. conversion. Refer to L.P. conversion kit instructions to correct.
