If you need service or assistance,
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, but not TIMED BAKE)?
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 box7
l Is the surface unit control knob turned to a setting other than OFF?
l Are you using the proper cook- ware? See page 6.
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 cooking results aren’t what you expected:
l Is the range level?
l Are you using pans recommended in the Cooking Guide?
l If baking, have you allowed 1% to 2 inches
l Have you preheated the oven as the recipe calls for?
l Are the pans the size called for in the recipe?
l Are you following a tested recipe from a reliable source?
l Do the cooking utensils have smooth, flat bottoms and fit the sur- face unit being used?
