Troubleshooting - KitchenAid KESC300 Use And Care Manual

^Troubleshooting
Most cooking problems often are caused by little things you can find and fix without
tools of any kind. Check the lists below and on the next page before calling for
assistance or service. If you still need help, see "Requesting Assistance or Service"
on pages 44 and 45.
If nothing operates, check the following:
Is the range wired into a live circuit with the proper voltage?
{See Installation Instructions.)
Have you blown a household fuse or tripped a circuit breaker?
Other possible problems and their causes:
