Baking results differ from previous oven.

Temperatures often vary between a new oven and an old one. As ovens age, the oventemperatureoften“drifts”andmay become hotter or cooler. See page 5 for instructions on adjusting the oven tem- perature.

NOTE: It is not recommended to adjust the temperature if only one or two reci- pes are in question.

Baking results are not what you expected.

Check the oven temperature selected. Make sure oven is preheated when recipe or directions recommend preheat.

Check rack positions. See page 9.

Use correct pan. Dark pans produce dark browning. Shiny pans produce light browning. See “Cooking Made Simple” booklet for more information on bakeware.

Check the use of foil in the oven. Never use foil to cover an entire oven rack. Place a small piece of foil on the rack below the pan to catch spillovers.

Check pan placement. Stagger pans when using two racks. Allow 1–2 inches be- tween pans and oven walls.

Make sure the oven vent has not been blocked. See page 9 for location.

Check to make sure range is level.

Check rack positions. See page 10.

Oven did not clean properly.

Longer cleaning time may be needed.

Excessive spillovers, especially sugary and/or acidic foods, were not removed prior to the self-clean cycle.

Oven interior is still hot. Allow about one hour for the oven to cool after the comple- tion of a self-clean cycle. The door can be opened when the LOCK indicator word is not displayed.

Moisture collects in oven or on oven window.

This is normal when cooking foods high in moisture.

Excessive moisture was used when clean- ing the window.

There is a strong odor or light smoke when oven is turned on.

This is normal for a new range and will disappear after a few uses. Initiating a clean cycle will “burn off” the odor more quickly.

Turning on a ventilation fan will help remove the smoke and/or odor.

There are excessive food soils on the oven bottom. Use a self-clean cycle.

“F” plus a number appears in the display.

This is called a fault code. If a fault code appears in the display and beeps sound, press the Cancel pad. If the fault code and beeps continue, disconnect power to the appliance. Wait a few minutes, then re- connect power. If fault code and beeps still continue, disconnect power to the appliance and call an authorized servicer.

If the oven is heavily soiled, excessive flare-ups may result in a fault code during a clean cycle. Press Cancel pad and allow the oven to cool completely. Wipe out excess soil then reset the clean cycle. If the fault code and beeps still continue, dis- connect power to the appliance and call an authorized servicer.
