Avoid Service Checklist | 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. | |
| This oven is equipped with a state of the art electronic oven controller. Among its | |
| many features is a full time oven circuit diagnostics system. The controller constantly | |
| monitors its internal circuitry as well as several crucial oven circuits to insure they are | |
| all operating correctly. If at any time one of these systems fails, the controller will | |
| immediately stop operation, and beep continuously (flashing an error code of F1 or | |
| F3* in the display window, if equipped). | |
