•Check if oven controls have been properly set.

•Check oven rack positions.

•Broil element was not preheated.

•Aluminum foil was incorrectly used. Never line the broiler insert with foil.

•Oven door was closed during broiling. Leave the door open to the first stop position (about 4 inches).

•Food too close to element.

•Broiler insert covered with aluminum foil.

•Trim excess fat from meat prior to broiling.

•A soiled broiler pan was used.

•Check if controls are set properly.

•Check to make sure the cycle is not set for a delayed start.

•Check if door is closed.

•Longer cleaning time may be needed.

•Excessive spillovers, especially sugary and/or acid 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 completion of a self-clean cycle. The door can be opened when the LOC indicator word is not displayed.

•Both ovens will lock when either oven is cleaned.

•This is normal when cooking food high in moisture.

•Excessive moisture was used when cleaning the window.

•This is normal for a new range and will disappear after a few uses. Initiating a clean cycle will "burn off" the smells more quickly.

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

•Excessive food soils on the oven bottom. Use a self-clean cycle.

•When high moisture foods are cooked in the upper oven, steam may be visable coming form the vent area. This is normal.

•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 reconnect 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 for one hour, then reset the clean cycle. If the fault code and beeps still continue, disconnect power to the appliance and call an authorized servicer.
