If you need service or assistance, we suggest you follow these five steps:

1. Before calling for assistance...

Performance problems often result
from little things you can fix yourself
without tools of any kind.
If nothing operates:
l
Is the power supply cord plugged
into a live circuit with the proper volt-
age? (See “Installation Instructionsl’)
l
Have you checked the main fuse or
circuit breaker box?
If the oven will not operate:
l
Is the Oven Selector turned to a set-
ting (BAKE or BROIL, but not TIMED
BAKE]?
l
Is the Oven Temperature Control
turned to a temperature setting?
If surface units will not operate:
l
Have you checked the main fuse or
circuit breaker box?
l
Are surface units plugged in all the
way?
l
Do the control knobs turn?
If surface unit control knob(s) will
not turn:
l
Did you push in before trying to turn?
If the Self-Cleaning cycle will not
operate:
l
Are the Oven Selector and Oven
Temperature Control set on CLEAN?
l
Does the Start Time Dial show the
correct time of day?
l
Is the Stop Time Dial set ahead to the
time you want the cleaning cycle to
stop?
l
Is the Lock Lever all the way to the
right?(TheCleanLightwillcomeon.)
If cooking results aren’t what you
expected:
l
Is the range level?
l
Are you using pans recommended
in the Cooking Guide?
l
If baking, have you allowed 1% to 2
inches (4-5 cm) on all sides of the
pans for air circulation?
l
Have you preheated the oven as the
recipe calls for?
l
Are the pans thesize called for in the
recipe?
l
Are you following a tested recipe
from a reliable source?
l
Do the cooking utensils have
smooth, flat bottoms and fit the sur-
face unit being used?
