inside of the oven is normal for the first
few times the oven is used.
A convection fan may automatically turn
on and off.
A cooling fan may automatically turn on

No. The inner oven glass is coated with
a heat barrier to reflect the heat back into
the oven to prevent heat loss and keep the
outer door cool while baking.
Cookware or food in oven.
Number of racks in oven.
Power failure.
You forgot to enter a bake temperature or
cleaning time.
The shiny, silver-colored racks were
cleaned in a self-clean cycle.
When using the ovens, it is normal to see
steam coming out of the oven vents. As
the number of racks or amount of food
being cooked increases, the amount of
visible steam will increase.
A fuse in your home may be blown or the
circuit breaker tripped.
Controls improperly set.
Liquid in drawer.
Temperature setting too high.
Moisture escaping.
This is normal.
This is reminding you to enter a probe
temperature after plugging in the probe.

maximize cooking evenness. The convection fan will operate
during preheat of the bake cycle. The fan will turn off after the
oven is heated to the set temperature. This is normal.
This is normal. The cooling fan will turn off and on to cool
internal parts. It may run after the oven is turned off.
tint or rainbow color.
The cookware or food in the oven will cause the oven to take
longer to preheat. Remove items to reduce preheat time.
Adding more racks to the oven will cause the oven to take
longer to preheat. Remove some racks.
The different cooking modes use different preheat methods to
heat the oven for the specific cooking mode. Some modes will
take longer than others (i.e. convection bake).
Reset the clock.
Touch the Bake pad and desired temperature or the Self
Clean pad and desired clean time.
Apply a small amount of vegetable oil to a paper towel and
