Is the range plug disconnected from the electrical outlet? · Are house fuses blown or
circuit breakers tripped? · Is the range plug loose or improperly plugged in?
power supply to your home been interrupted? · Was oven properly set?
This may indicate a "stuck" pad. Press each of the seven pads to disengage the pad.
Then, press STOP/CLEAR pad and reprogram the operation. If the control still does not
accept an entry after checking each pad, call the servicer.
Is range plug disconnected from the electrical outlet? · Check circuit breaker or fuse
box for tripped circuit breakers or blown fuses. · Is element properly plugged into recep-
tacle? · Was incorrect utensil used? · For optimum results, utensil SHOULD HAVE A
FLAT bottom. See page 6 for additional information. (NOTE: Expect cooking times to
increase if range is connected to 208 volts). · Have serviceman check element.
Are racks properly in place and in correct position for what you are baking? · Is range
level? · Are you using the proper pan? · Is it bright, not soiled or dark colored? · Have
you used foil incorrectly? · Are you using standard measuring utensils? · Did you pre-
heat if recommended? · Oven temperature is incorrectly set - too low or too high.
Is the range disconnected from the electrical power? · Was oven properly set?
Is bulb loose or burned out?
This is called a FAULT CODE. If a fault code appears in the display, press the STOP/
CLEAR pad. If the fault code reappears, disconnect power to the range and call the ser-
vicer. See page 20 for additional information.
