from your old oven and therefore may cook
differently than your old oven.

being used.
Oven temperature needs adjustment.

grid has not been fitted properly and slit as
recommended.

breaker tripped.

off more frequently than in older ovens to achieve
better results during baking, broiling, convection,
and self-clean cycles.
A fuse in your home may be blown or the circuit
breaker tripped.
