Cannot move appliance easily.

Surface element too hot or not hot

enough.

Surface element does not heat.

Entire appliance does not operate.

Cooktop and/or oven light (some models) does not work.

Before you call for service, review this list. It may save you time and expense. The list includes common occurrences that are not the result of defective

workmanship or materials in this appliance.

POSSIBLE CAUSE/SOLUTION

Poor installation. Place oven rack in center of oven. Place a level on the oven

rack. Adjust leveling legs at base of range until the oven rack is level.

Be sure floor is level and is strong and stable enough to adequately support range.

If floor is sagging or sloping, contact a carpenter to correct the situation.

Kitchen cabinet alignment may make range appear unlevel. Be sure cabinets are square and have sufficient room for range clearance.

Cabinets not square or are built in too tightly. Contact builder or installer to make appliance accessible.

Carpet interferes with range. Provide sufficient space so range can be lifted over carpet.

Incorrect control setting. Make sure the correct control is on for the surface element to be used.

Lightweight or warped pans used. Use only flat, evenly balanced, medium or

heavyweight cookware. Flat pans heat better than warped pans. Cookware materials and weight of the material affect heating. Heavy- and medium-

weight pans heat evenly. Because lightweight pans heat unevenly, foods may burn easily.

No power to the appliance. Check steps under "Entire Appliance Does Not Operate" in this Avoid Service Checklist.

Incorrect control setting. Make sure the correct control is on for the surface element to be used.

Element not making contact in block. Follow instructions under "Surface Elements and Drip Bowls" in the General Cleaning section.

Make sure cord/plug is plugged tightly into outlet.

Service wiring is not complete. Contact your dealer, installing agent or authorized servicer.

Power outage. Check house lights to be sure. Call your local electric company for service.

Replace or tighten bulb. See Changing Cooktop and/or Oven Lights (some models) in this Owner's Guide for instructions.

Control(s) not set properly. Follow instructions under Setting Oven Controls.

Make sure oven door is opened to broil stop position.

Meat too close to the element. Reposition the rack to provide proper clearance between the meat and the element. Preheat broil element for searing.

Meat not properly prepared. Remove excess fat from meat. Cut remaining fatty edges to prevent curling, but do not cut into lean.

Grid on broiler pan wrong side up and grease not draining. Always place grid on the broiler pan with ribs up and slots down to allow grease to drip into pan.

Grease has built up on oven surfaces. Regular cleaning is necessary when

broiling frequently. Old grease or food spatters cause excessive smoking.
