9 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
In the event that personal clothing or hair catches fire, drop and roll immediately to extinguish flames.
Have an appropriate fire extinguisher available, nearby, highly visible and easily accessible near the appliance.
Smother flames from food fires other than grease fires with baking soda. Never use water on cooking fires.
WARNING
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY TO PERSONS IN THE EVENT OF A GREASE FIRE, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:
a.
SMOTHER FLAMES with a close-fitting lid, cookie sheet, or metal tray, then turn off the burner. BE CAREFUL TO PREVENT BURNS. If the flames do not go out immediately, EVACUATE AND CALL THE FIRE DEPARTMENT.
b.
NEVER PICK UP A FLAMING PAN – You may be burned.
c.
DO NOT USE WATER, including wet dishcloths or towels – a violent steam explosion will result.
d.
Use an extinguisher ONLY if:
- You know you have a Class ABC extinguisher, and you already know how to operate it.
- The fire is small and contained in the area where it started.
- The fire department is being called.
- You can fight the fire with your back to an exit.
Burn Prevention
DO NOT TOUCH HEATING ELEMENTS OR INTERIOR SURFACES OF OVEN - Heating elements may be hot even though they are dark in color. Interior surfaces of an oven become hot enough to cause burns. During and after use, do not touch, or let clothing, potholders, or other flammable materials contact heating elements or interior surfaces of oven until they have had sufficient time to cool. Other surfaces of the appliance may become hot enough to cause burns. Among these surfaces are oven vent openings, surfaces near these openings and oven doors.
Exercise caution when opening the appliance. Standing to the side, open the door (or drawer) slowly and slightly to let hot air and/or steam escape. Keep your face clear of the opening and make sure there are no children or pets near the unit. After the release of hot air and/or steam, proceed with your cooking. Keep doors shut unless necessary for cooking or cleaning purposes. Do not leave open doors unattended.
Do not heat or warm unopened food containers. Build-up of pressure may cause the container to burst and cause injury.
Use caution when cooking foods with high alcohol content (e.g. rum, brandy, bourbon) in the oven. Alcohol evaporates at high temperatures. There is a risk of burning as the alcohol vapors may catch fire in the oven. Use only small quantities of alcohol in foods, and open the oven door carefully.
Always place oven racks in desired location while oven is cool. If a rack must be moved while oven is hot, do not let potholder contact the heating elements.
CAUTION
To avoid possible injury or damage to the appliance, ensure rack is installed exactly per installation instructions and not backwards or upside down.
Always use dry potholders. Moist or damp potholders on hot surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do not let potholder touch hot heating elements. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth.
Secure all loose garments, etc. before beginning. Tie long hair so that it does not hang loose, and do not wear loose fitting clothing or hanging garments, such as ties, scarves, jewelry, or dangling sleeves.
Child Safety
When children become old enough to use the appliance, it is the legal responsibility of the parents or legal guardians to ensure that they are instructed in safe practices by qualified persons.
Do not allow anyone to climb, stand, lean, sit, or hang on any part of an appliance, especially a door, warming drawer, or storage drawer. This can damage the appliance, and the unit may tip over, potentially causing severe injury.
Do not allow children to use this appliance unless closely supervised by an adult. Children and pets should not be left alone or unattended in the area where the appliance is in use. They should never be allowed to play in its vicinity, whether or not the appliance is in use.
CAUTION
Items of interest to children should not be stored in an appliance, in cabinets above an appliance or on the backsplash. Children climbing on an appliance to reach items could be seriously injured.

Cleaning Safety
IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE: The California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act requires the Governor of California to publish a list of substances known to the state to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm, and requires businesses to warn customers of potential exposure to such substances. The burning of gas cooking fuel and the elimination of soil during self-cleaning can generate some by-products which are on the list. To minimize exposure to these substances, always operate this unit according to the instructions contained in this booklet and provide good ventilation.
When self-cleaning, confirm that the door locks and will not open. If the door does not lock, do not run Self­Clean. Contact service.
Wipe out excessive spillage before self-cleaning the oven.
Birds have very sensitive respiratory systems. Keep pet birds out of the kitchen or other rooms where kitchen fumes could reach them. During self-clean, fumes are released that may be harmful to birds. Other kitchen fumes such as overheating margarines and cooking oils may also be harmful.
Keep oven free from grease build up.
Cookware Safety
NOTICE: Do not place food directly on oven bottom.
Follow the manufacturer’s directions when using cooking or roasting bags.
Do not clean parts or accessories in the self-clean oven.

Getting Started

Parts
Picture shows double oven. Your appliance may vary slightly.
Cooling Fan
The cooling fan runs during all cooking modes. The fan can be heard when it is running, and warm air may be felt as it is released from the oven vent. The fan may also run after the oven is off.
Oven Vent
The oven vent is located at the bottom of the unit. Warm air may be released from the vent before, during and after cooking. It is normal to see steam escaping from the vent, and condensation may collect in this area. This area may be warm when the oven is in use. Do not block the vent, since it is important for air circulation.
Convection Fan
The convection fan operates during all convection modes. When the oven is operating in a convection mode, the fan turns off automatically when the door is opened. The convection fan may also run during Fast Preheat and Self-Clean.

Getting the Most Out of Your Appliance
General Tips
Pan Placement
Baking results are better if pans are placed in the center of the oven. If baking more than one pan on a rack, allow at least 1’’ to 1 1/2’’ of air space around the pan. When baking four cake layers at the same time, stagger pans on two racks so that one pan is not directly above the other.
Aluminum Foil
9 WARNING
Do not use aluminum foil or protective liners to line any part of the appliance, especially the oven bottom. Installing these liners may result in risk of electric shock or fire.
Preheating the Oven
Place oven racks in desired position before heating
the oven.
Preheat the oven when using the Bake, Convection
Bake, True Convection, Pizza, Broil, Convection Broil, and Warm modes.
Preheat is not used for Speed Convection, Roast,
Convection Roast, Proof, and Dehydrate modes.
Allow oven to preheat while preparing recipe
ingredients or food items.
Setting a higher temperature does not shorten preheat
time.
Once oven is preheated, place food in the oven as
quickly as possible to minimize the loss of heat and reduction of oven temperature.
Use Fast Preheat to speed up preheating.
Preheat Reminders
Your oven has one of the fastest preheat times in the market using a concealed bake element. The lower element is hidden under the oven bottom. It is normal that the preheat time is different than your previous oven that had an exposed element on the bottom.
Cleaning the oven is easier because there is no
cleaning around a coil element showing on the bottom of the oven. The hidden lower element is protected from food soils and spills. Wiping up excess spills is easy.
Preheating is not necessary for meats, poultry,
casseroles and Speed Convection.
Preheat time will be longer when the electrical supply
to your house is less than 240 volts.
Increasing the oven temperature will require a longer
preheat time. For example, the preheat time for 425° F is longer than the preheat time for 350° F.
When broiling, preheat the oven 3-4 minutes. Do not preheat for more than 5 minutes.
For Best Results
Use the cooking recommendation charts as a guide.
See charts at the end of the book.
Open the door as briefly as possible to avoid
temperature reduction.
Use the interior oven light to view the food through the
oven window rather than opening the door frequently.
Use the Timer to keep track of cooking times.
Baking Pans and Dishes
Glass baking dishes absorb heat. Some cookware
manufacturers recommend reducing the temperature 25 ºF when using this type of dish. Follow manufacturers’ recommendations.
Use pans that provide the desired browning. For
tender, light, golden brown crusts, use light, anodized or shiny metal bakeware.
Dark, rough or dull pans (nonstick or anodized) will
absorb heat and result in a browner, crisper crust. Some manufacturers recommend reducing the temperature 25 °F when using this type of pan. Follow manufacturers’ recommendations.
Insulated cookie sheets or bakeware may increase the
length of cooking time.
Do not set broil pans or any other heavy object on the
open oven door.
Do not keep the empty broil pan in the oven during
cooking as this changes cooking performance. Store the broil pan outside the oven.
High Altitude Baking
When cooking at high altitudes, recipes and cooking times will vary.
For accurate information, write the Extension Service, Colorado State University, Fort Collins, Colorado 80521. There may be a cost for the guides. Specify which high altitude food preparation guide you prefer: general information, cakes, cookies breads. etc.
Condensation
It is normal for certain amount of moisture to evaporate from the food during any cooking process. The amount depends on the moisture content of the food. The moisture may condense on any surface cooler than the inside of the oven, such as the control panel.
21
Bake %
Bake is cooking with dry, heated air. Both the upper and lower elements cycle to maintain the oven temperature.
The Bake mode can be used to prepare a variety of food items, from pastries to casseroles. Refer to recipe or package directions for oven temperature and baking time.
Tips
Preheat the oven if the recipe recommends it.Baking time will vary with the size, shape and finish of
the bakeware. Dark metal pans or nonstick coatings will cook faster with darker results. Insulated bakeware will lengthen the cook time for most foods.
For best results, bake food on a single rack with at
least 1-1^” space between pans or dishes and oven walls.
Eliminate heat loss from the oven by using the window
to periodically check food for doneness instead of opening the door.
If multiple racks are necessary, use a maximum of 2
racks. For cakes use rack positions 2 and 5, for cookies use rack positions 1 and 4. Stagger pans so that one is not directly above the other (see graphic below). See “Pan Placement“ under “General Tips“ for more information. You may also consider using a convection mode.
Convection Bake (Some Models) 2
Convection Bake is similar to Bake. Heat comes from the upper and lower heating elements. The main difference in convection baking is that the heat is circulated throughout the appliance by the convection fan.
The Convection Bake mode is well suited for cakes, bar cookies and breads to take advantage of the bottom heat, yielding a better crust on baked items. The benefits of Convection Bake include:
Slight decrease in cook time.Higher volume (yeast items rise higher).
Tips
Reduce recipe temperature by 25 °F. Refer to the
cooking chart at end of this manual.
Place food in shallow, uncovered pans, such as
cookie sheets without sides.
If baking more than one pan on a rack, allow at least
1-1^“ of air space around the pan.
For cakes use rack positions 2 and 5. Stagger pans
so that one is not directly above the other (see following graphic).
Pan stagger in Bake mode for 27” appliances.
Pan stagger in Bake mode for 30” appliances.
Pan stagger in Convection Bake mode for 27” appliances.
Pan stagger in Convection Bake mode for 30” appliances.
22
True Convection :
True Convection cooks with heat from a third element behind the back wall of the oven. The heat is circulated throughout the oven by the convection fan.
True Convection is well suited for cooking individual serving-sized foods such as cookies and biscuits. It is also good for cooking on multiple racks (2 or 3) at the same time. Baking cookies is possible on 6 racks simultaneously. In this case, the baking time increases slightly. The benefits of True Convection include:
Even browning.Time savings as a result of using multiple racks at one
time.
Tips
Reduce recipe temperature by 25 °F. Refer to chart at
end of the manual.
Place food in low-sided, uncovered pans such as
cookie sheets without sides.
If baking more than one pan on a rack, allow at least
1“ to 1^“ of air space around the pan.
Roast %
Roast uses both the upper and lower elements to maintain the oven temperature. Roasting uses more intense heat from the upper element than the lower element. This results in more browning of the exterior while the inside remains especially moist.
Roast is best suited for large cuts of meat and poultry.
Tips
Use a high-sided broil pan, or cover dish with a lid or
foil.
Add liquids, such as water, juice, wine, bouillon or
stock for flavor and moisture.
Roasting bags are suitable for use in this mode.When roasting whole chicken or turkey, tuck wings
behind back and loosely tie legs wih kitchen string.
Convection Roast 2
Convection Roast uses heat from the top and bottom elements as well as heat circulated by the convection fan.
The Convection Roast mode is well suited for preparing tender cuts of meat and poultry.
The benefits of Convection Roast mode include:
As much as 25% faster cooking than non-convection
modes.
Rich, golden browning.
Tips
Use the same temperature as indicated in the recipe.Check doneness early, since roasting time may
decrease.
Do not cover meat or use cooking bags.Use the broil pan and grid provided with the oven for
roasting. A shallow, uncovered pan can also be used.
Use a meat thermometer to determine the internal
temperature of the meat.
If the meat is browned to your liking, but is not yet
done, a small strip of foil can be placed over the meat to prevent over-browning.
Let meat stand covered with foil 10-15 minutes after
removing it from the oven.
See charts for recommended rack positions.
Broil #
Broil uses intense heat radiated from the upper element. The Broil mode is best suited for cooking thin, tender
cuts of meat (1“ or less), poultry and fish. It can also be used to brown breads and casseroles. Always broil with the door closed.
To use the broil pan and grid: For normal Broil: food should be placed in the center of
the broil pan and grid. The benefits of broiling include:
Fast and efficient cooking.Cooking without the addition of fats or liquids.
Tips
Preheat oven 3-4 minutes. Do not preheat for more
than 5 minutes.
Steaks and chops should be at least _“ thick.Brush fish and poultry with butter or oil to prevent
sticking.
Use the broil pan and grid included with the oven.Do not cover the broil grid with foil. It is designed to
drain fats and oils away from the cooking surface to prevent smoking and spattering.
Turn meats once during the rcommended cook time
(see charts at the end of the book).
When top browning casseroles, use only metal or
glass ceramic dishes such as Corningware®.
Never use heat-proof glass (Pyrex®); it cannot tolerate
the high temperature.
Convection Broil 1
Convection Broil is similar to Broil. It combines intense heat from the upper element with heat circulated by a convection fan.
Convection Broil mode is well suited for cooking thick, tender cuts of meat, poultry and fish. Convection Broil is not recommended for browning breads, casseroles and other foods. Always use Convection Broil withe the door closed.
In addition to the benefits of standard broiling, convection broiling is faster.
To use the broil pan and grid: For normal Convection Broil: Food should be placed in
the center of the broil pan and grid.
Tips
Preheat oven 3-4 minutes. Do not preheat for more
than 5 minutes.
Steaks and Chops should be at least 1^“ thick.
23
Use the broil pan and grid included with your oven.Do not cover the broil grid with foil. It is designed to
drain fats and oils away from the cooking surface to prevent smoking and spattering.
Turn meats once during the recommended cook time
(see charts at the end of the book).
Never use heat-proof glass (Pyrex®); it cannot tolerate
the high temperature.
Pizza 2
In the Pizza mode, heat from the lower and upper elements is circulated throughout the oven by the convection fan.
Use the Pizza mode for fresh or frozen pizza.
Tips
For a crispy crust, place pizza directly on the rack.For a softer crust, use a pizza pan.When proofing dough, coat dough with olive oil and
cover bowl tightly with plastic wrap to prevent crust formation.
Sprinkle cornmeal on the pizza pan to prevent sticking.If using a pizza paddle, sprinkle the paddle liberally
with cornmeal for ease in transferring the dough to the pan.
If parbaking handmade pizza dough, prick the dough
with a fork before baking.
If using a pizza pan, choose a dark, perforated pan for
a more crisp crust and a non-perforated pan for a softer crust.
Preheat baking stone while the oven is preheating.Rack positions to use:
Homemade Pizza: rack 2 Frozen: follow manufacturer’s directions Baking Stone: rack2
The convection fan cycles on and off when using pizza
mode.
Speed Convection
Speed Convection uses all heating elements as well as the convection fan to evenly distribute heat throughout the oven cavity. The main difference between Speed Convection and other convection modes is that it does not require preheating.
Speed Convection is well suited for frozen convenience foods such as fish sticks and chicken nuggets.
The benefits of Speed Convection include:
Decrease in cook time since preheating is not
necessary.
Crispy and evenly browned frozen foods.
Tips
Begin cooking all frozen convenience products in a
cold, non-preheated oven. The food will still be done in package time.
Follow the package instructions for time and
temperature.
Flipping of food halfway through recommended cook
time is not necessary.
Frozen foods that are sold in microwaveable plastic
containers should not be used in this mode.
Cook food items on rack position 3 unless directed
otherwise by the product manufacturer.
Evenly space food items on pan.For double cavity appliances, only one cavity is
available when using Speed Convection.
Proof (Some Models) %
In Proof, the appliance uses the upper and lower elements to maintain a low temperature to proof bread or other yeast doughs.
Proofing is the rising of yeast dough.The Proof mode temperature is 85°F to 110 °F (29 °C
to 43 °C).
The default temperature in Proof mode is 100 °F
(38 °C).
Loosely cover the bowl or pan and use any rack that
accommodates the size of the container.
Keep the door closed and use the oven light to check
the rising of the dough.
Warm %
In Warm, the upper and lower elements maintain a low temperature in the oven cavity in order to keep food at serving temperature.
Use the Warm mode to keep cooked foods hot until
ready to serve.
Warm mode temperatures are 140 °F-220 °F (66 °C -
107 °C).
The default temperature in the Warm mode is 170 °F
(77 °C).
Foods that must be kept moist should be covered with
a lid or aluminum foil.
9 CAUTION
WHEN USING WARM MODE, FOLLOW THESE GUIDELINES:
Do not use the Warm mode to heat cold food.Be sure to maintain proper food temperature. The
USDA recommends holding hot food at 140 °F (60 °C) or warmer.
DO NOT warm food longer than one hour.
24
Dehydrate :
Dehydrate dries with heat from a third element behind the back wall of the oven. The heat is circulated throughout the oven by the convection fan.
Use Dehydrate to dry and/or preserve foods such as fruits, vegetables and herbs. This mode holds an optimum low temperature of 100 °F to 160 °F (38 °C to 71 °C) while circulating the heated air to slowly remove moisture. The oven stays on for 48 hours before shutting off automatically.
Tips
Dry most fruits and vegetables at 140 °F (60 °C). Dry
herbs at 100 °F (38 °C) (refer to the Dehydrate Chart for examples).
Drying times vary depending on the moisture and
sugar content of the food, the size of the pieces, the amount being dried and the humidity in the air. Check food at the minimum drying time.
Multiple drying racks (not included) can be used
simultaneously.
Treat fruits with antioxidants to avoid discoloration.Consult a food preservation book, county Cooperative
Extension Office or library for additional information.

Cleaning and Maintenance
Self-Clean
9 WARNING
WHEN USING THE SELF-CLEAN SETTING
During the elimination of soil during self-cleaning,
small amounts of Carbon Monoxide can be created and the fiberglass insulation could give off very small amounts of formaldehyde during the first several cleaning cycles. To minimize exposure to these substances, provide good ventilation with an open window, or use a ventilation fan or hood.
Do not block the oven vent(s) during the self-
cleaning cycle. Always operate the unit according to the instructions in this manual.
When self-cleaning, confirm that the door locks
and will not open. If the door does not lock, do not run Self-Clean. Contact service.
During Self-Clean, the oven is heated to a very high temperature. Soil is burned off at this temperature.
9 CAUTION
AVOID RISK OF DAMAGE
Wipe out excessive spillage before self-cleaning
the oven.
Do not clean parts or accessories in the self-
clean oven.
To set the Self-Clean mode:
1.
Press SELF CLEAN. The Cook Time symbol and the default time appear:
2.

Press COOK TIME.

3.

Depending on the soil level, you can change the length of the Self-Clean mode (1:30 - 2:30 hours). To change the cleaning time to 2 hours and 15 minutes (2:15), press 215.

4.
Press START. Self-Clean starts.
The oven is locked during self-cleaning mode. The
I
symbol appears in the display. You will only be able to open the door when the
I symbol disappears.
Once the oven has cooled, wipe out the remaining ash with a wet towel.
Press PAUSE/STOP once to pause Self-Clean. Press twice to stop Self-Clean.
Tips:
For double oven models: while Self-Clean is in
progress in one oven, the other oven must be off.
The oven light cannot be turned on during self-
cleaning.
The special heat-resistant enamel and the polished
components in the oven can become discolored over time. This is normal and does not affect operation. Under no circumstances should scouring pads or abrasive cleaners be used to treat discolorations.
Avoid These Cleaners
Do not use commercial oven cleaners such as Easy Off®. They may damage the oven finish or parts.
Never use scouring pads or abrasive cleaners.

Part Recommendations
Broil Pan and Grid Wash with hot soapy water.
Rinse thoroughly and dry, or gen­tly rub with cleansing powder or soap-filled pads as directed. DO NOT clean broil pan and grid in the self-cleaning oven.
Flat Rack Wash with hot soapy water.
Rinse thoroughly and dry, or gen­tly rub with cleansing powder or soap-filled pads as directed. DO NOT clean the rack in the self­cleaning oven.
If the flat racks are cleaned in the oven during the self clean mode, they will loose their shiny finish and may not glide smoothly. If this happens, wipe the rack edges with a small amount of vegetable oil. Then wipe off excess.
Telescopic Rack Wash with soapy water. Rinse
thoroughly and dry, or gently rub with cleansing powder or soap­filled pads as directed. Avoid get­ting cleansing powder in the tele­scopic slides. Re-lubrication may become necessary. Use only high-temperature food-grade lubricants to re-lubricate slides.
DO NOT clean the rack in the
self-cleaning oven. Fiberglass Gasket DO NOT CLEAN GASKET. Glass Wash with soap and water or
glass cleaner. Use Fantastik® or
Formula 409® to remove grease
spatters and stubborn stains.

Maintenance
Replacing an Oven Light
9 CAUTION
WHEN REPLACING AN OVEN LIGHT:
Make sure the appliance and lights are cool and
power to the appliance has been turned off before replacing the light bulb(s). Failure to do so could result in electrical shock or burns.
The lenses must be in place when using the
appliance.
The lenses serve to protect the light bulb from
breaking.
The lenses are made of glass. Handle carefully to
avoid breaking. Broken glass could cause an injury.
Light socket is live when door is open.
Use only 120 volt, 25 watt halogen light bulbs, G9 base. These bulbs can be purchased through retail stores.
Use a clean, dry cloth to handle halogen light bulbs. This will increase the life of the bulb.
Hint: Some users may find it helpful to remove the oven door to provide easier access and visibility. See the following section: “Removing the oven door".
To replace the halogen bulb on the oven ceiling:
1.
Turn off power to the oven at the main power supply (fuse or breaker box).
2.

Remove the oven racks if necessary to provide access to the bulb housing.

3.

Remove the glass cover by unscrewing it.

4.

The halogen bulb is visible in the light fixture.

5.

Remove the halogen bulb by pulling it out of the 2 pin socket. Pull straight down and out.

Painted Surfaces Clean with hot soapy water or
apply Fantastik® or Formula 409® to a clean sponge or paper towel and wipe clean. Avoid using powder cleaning agents, steel wool pads and oven cleaners.
Porcelain Surfaces Immediately wipe up acid spills
like fruit juice, milk and tomatoes with a dry cloth. Do not use a moistened sponge/cloth on hot porcelain. When cool, clean with hot soapy water or apply Bon­Ami® or Soft Scrub® to a damp sponge. Rinse and dry. For stub­born stains, use soap-filled pads. It is normal for porcelain to show fine lines with age due to expo­sure to heat and food soil.
Stainless Steel Sur­faces
Always wipe or rub in the direc­tion of the grain. Clean with a soapy sponge, then rinse and dry, or wipe with Fantastik® or Formula 409® sprayed on a paper towel. Protect and polish with Stainless Steel Magic® and a soft cloth. Remove water spots with a cloth dampened with white vinegar. Use Bar Keeper´s Friend® to remove heat discolor­ation.
Plastic & Controls When cool, clean with soapy
water, rinse and dry.
Probe Wipe with soapy water. Do not
submerge. Do not wash in the dishwasher.
Printed areas (words & numbers)
Do not use abrasive cleaners or petroleum based solvents.

objects as this could break the glass. Lay the door on a flat, smooth surface, positioned so that the door cannot fall over.
To remove the oven door:
1.
Read the preceeding caution notice before beginning the oven door removal process.
2.

Provide a nearby place to safely lay the door after removal so it will not fall over or be stepped upon. Lay the door flat on a blanket or cushioned surface.

3.

Open the oven door fully until it is parallel to the floor. The door contains powerful springs to assist with closing the door. It is necessary to position the toggle locks in place to take the tension off the springs.

4.

To access the toggle locks, remove the locking plate using a T20 star head driver.

5.

After removing the screw, (A) lift the locking plate up and then pivot it out to remove. Repeat for the other hinge. Retain both locking plates and screws for reinstallation.

6.
Flip the locking levers towards the door as far as they will go. Hint: (B) It may be helptul to use the tip of a screwdriver to pull out the locking levers. (C) Make sure both locking levers are in the locked position pushed all the way towards the door.

Data Plate
The data plate shows the model and serial number. Refer to the data plate on the appliance when requesting service. The data plate location is shown in the following picture.
How to Obtain Service or Parts
To reach a service representative, see the contact information at the front of the manual. Please be prepared with the information printed on your product data plate when calling.
Oven light is not working properly. Replace or reinsert the light bulb if loose or defective.
Touching the bulb with fingers may cause the bulb to burn out.
Oven light does not turn off. Check for obstruction in oven door. Check to see if
hinge is bent.
Cannot remove lens cover on light. There may be soil build-up around the lens cover. Wipe
lens cover area with a clean dry towel prior to attemping to remove the lens cover.
Oven is not self-cleaning properly. Allow the oven to cool before running self-clean. Always
wipe out loose soils or heavy spillovers before running self-clean. If oven is badly soiled, set oven for the maxi-
mum self-clean time. Clock and timer are not working properly. Make sure there is electrical power to oven. “E“ and a number appears in display and control beeps. This is a fault code. Follow the instructions in the display.
If the code remains or there are no instructions in the
display, press INFO to display more information (if appli-
cable) and to turn off the beep. If the code is still dis-
played, write down the fault code number, turn off the
oven, and call Service. With a new oven there is a strong odor when oven is turned
on.
This is normal with a new oven and will disappear after a
few uses. Operating the self-clean cycle also “burns-off“
the smell more quickly. Control does not react when a key is touched. Be sure that pad is clean. Touch the center of the touch-
pad. Use the flat part of your finger. Fan is running during modes that do not use convection. On some models, the convection fan runs while the oven
is preheating for the bake mode. This is normal. Warm air or steam escapes from oven vent. It is normal to see or feel steam or warm air escaping
from the oven vent. Do not block the vent. Cooling fan runs even when the oven is turned off. This is normal. The cooling fan will continue to run, even
after the oven has been turned off, until the oven has
cooled sufficiently. Oven door closes faster/slower than normal. The soft-close door hinges contain a damping fluid that
is affected by temperature. If the oven is in a cold envi-
ronment, the door will close slower than it will in a
warmer environment. A warmer than normal environ-
ment, such as when cooking, may cause the door to
close slightly faster.
