Performance problems often result from
little things you can find and fix without
tools of any kind.
If nothing operates:

a live circuit with the proper voltage?
(See Installation Instructions.)

Have you checked your home's main
fuses or circuit breaker box?

a setting (BAKE or BROIL, but not
TIMED BAKE)?

turned to a temperature setting?

not operate:

Temperature Control set on CLEAN?

Does the clock show the right time
of day?

you want the Self-Cleaning cycle
to stop?

the right?
If cooking results aren't what
you expected:

low or too high? See page 7.

oven as the recipe calls for?
