If you need service or assistance,
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 nothlng 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, but not TIMED
BAKE)?
. Is the Oven Temperature Control
turned to a temperature setting?
. Is the automatic MEALTIMER’” Clock
set correctly?
If surface units will not operate:
l
Have you checked your home’s
main fuses or circuit breaker box?
. Are surface units plugged in all the
way?
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 the Self-Cleaning cycle will not
operate:
l
Are the Oven Selector and Oven
Temperature Control set on CLEAN?
. Does the Start Time Dial show the
correct time of day? Is the knob all
the way out?
l
Is the Stop Time Dial set ahead to the
time you want the cleaning cycle to
stop?
l
Is the Lock Lever all the way to the
right?
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 10.
l
If needed, have you preheated the
oven as the recipe calls for?
l
Are you following a tested recipe
from a reliable source?

Are you using pans recommended
in the Cooking Guide?
l
If baking, have you allowed 1 I:2 to 2
inches (4-5 cm) on all sides of the
pans for air circulation?

recipe?
