Gas range noises during Bake and Broil operations

Noises that may be heard during the Bake and Broil operations:

Whooshing, Poof, Clicking, Snaps, Pop

These sounds are normal operational noises that can be heard each time the Bake or Broil burners ignite during the cycle.

A pop can be heard when the gas valve is opening or cycling on and will make a single pop when it snaps open from the solenoid. It sounds similar to a suction cup being pulled off of a piece of glass.

The igniters will click several times until the flame is detected. These are short clicking sounds like tapping a nail onto a piece of glass.

A whooshing or poof sound is heard when the Bake or Broil burner ignites.

On some models, a clicking sound can be heard when the convection fan relay cycles on and off.

Cookware not level on cooktop

Is the range level?

Level the range. See the Installation Instructions.

Is the proper cookware being used?

Use cookware with a flat bottom. See “Cookware” section.
