we suggest you follow these five steps:
1. Before calling for
assistance...
Performance problems often result
from little things you can find and fix
without tools of any kind.
If nothing operates:
l Is the power supply cord plugged
into a live circuit with the proper volt-
age? (See Installation Instructions.)
l Have you checked your home’s
main fuses or circuit breaker box?
If the oven will not operate:
l Is the Oven Selector turned to a set-
ting (BAKE or BROIL)?
l Is the Oven Temperature Control
turned to a temperature setting?
If surface units will not operate or
seem to cook too slow:
l Have you checked your home’s
main fuses or circuit breaker box?
l Is the surface unit control knob
turned to a setting other than OFF?
l Are you using the proper cook-
ware? See page 7.
l Do the control knobs turn?
If surface unit control knob(s) will
not turn:
l Did you push in before trying to turn?
If soil is visible on Contlnuous-
Cleaning oven finish:
. The special finish is designed to
gradually reduce oven sol1 during
normal baking or roasting. It is not
designed to keep your oven spot-
less, only presentably clean,
l If you broil often, you may see oven
soil.
l The door is cooler than the oven
Walls. Soil will be more visible on the
door than other areas in the oven.
See page 18 for how to clean.
l Sugar and starchy spills may leave
stains. See page 18 for hand clean-
ing tips. Keep foil on oven bottom to
catch these spills.
If cooking results aren’t what you
expected:
l Is the range level?
l Does the oven temperature seem
too low or too high? See page IO.
l If needed, have you preheated the
oven as the recipe calls for?
l Are you following a tested recipe
from a reliable source?
l Are you using pans recommended
in the Cooking Guide?
l If baking, have you allowed 1Yz to 2
inches (4-5 cm) on all sides of the
pans for air circulation?
l Are the pans the size called for in the
recipe?
l Do the cooking utensils have
smooth, flat bottoms and fit the sur-
face elements being used?
See the Cooking Guide for more infor-
mation on cooking problems and
how to solve them.
