SELF-CLEANING GAS BUILT-IN OVEN Use & Care Guide SB160PEX

If You Need Service Or Assistance n um
We suggest you follow these
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 gas turned on?
l Is the power supply cord plugged into a live
circuit with the proper voltage? (See Installation
Instructions.)
l Have you checked your home’s main fuses or
circuit breaker box?
l Have instructions in this book been followed?
l Is the flow of combustion and/or ventilation air
to the unit obstructed? Do not obstruct air
flow to and around unit.
l Recheck suspected defect.
If the oven will not operate:
l Are the electronic controls set correctly? See
pages 5-16.
l Have you programmed a delay start time?
If burner fails to light:
l Is the oven connected to electrical power?
l Have you checked your homes main fuses or
circuit breaker box?
If the Self-Cleaning cycle will not operate:
l Does the clock show the correct time of day?
l Have you set a delay start time?
If the cooling fan does not shut off after the
Self-Cleaning cycle is completed:
Canceling the Self-Cleaning cycle will not turn off
the cooling fan. The fan will only shut off after
electronic controls have sufficiently cooled.
If cooking results are not what you expected:
l Is the oven level?
l Does the oven temperature seem too low or
too high? See page 13.
l If needed, have you preheated the oven as the
recipe calls for?
l If broiling, have you completely closed the oven
door? Broiler provides best cooking results with
the oven door closed.
l Are you following a tested recipe from a reliable
source?
l If baking, have you allowed 1 i/2 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?
