Avoid Service Checklist Beforeyou 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, beeping and flashing an error code of F1 or F3* in the display window.

OCCURRENCE

POSSIBLE CAUSE/SOLUTION

Range is not level.

Cannot move appliance easily. Appliance must be accessible for service,

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.

Kitchencabinet alignment may make range appear unlevel. Besure 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.

*Oven control beeps and displays F1 or F3. Electronic controt has detected a fault condition. Push CANCEL to clear the display and

stop the beeping. Reprogram oven. If fault recurs, record fault number, push CANCEL and contact an authorized servicer.
