showing in the display.
Power failure.
Oven control pads were
not pressed properly.
Power outage or surge.
This is normal in a new
oven and will disappear
in time.
An odor from the insulation
around the inside of the
oven is normal for the first
few times the oven is used.
What To Do
• Disconnect all power to the range for at least 30
seconds and then reconnect power. If the function
error code repeats, call for service.
• On self-cleaning models, if a function error code
appears during the self-cleaning cycle, check the oven
door latch. The latch may have been moved, if only
slightly, from the locked position. Make sure the latch
is moved to the right as far as it will go. Touch the
CLEAR/OFF pad. Allow the oven to cool for one hour.
Put the oven back into operation.
• Contact installer or electrician to correct miswire.
• Replace the fuse or reset the circuit breaker.
• Reset the clock.
• The BAKE and BROIL HI/LO pads must be touched
at the same time and held for 3 seconds.
• Reset the clock. If the oven was in use, you must reset
it by touching the CLEAR/OFF pad, setting the clock
and resetting any cooking function.
• To speed the process, set a self-cleaning cycle
for a minimum of 3 hours. See the Using the
self-cleaning oven section.
• This is temporary.
