Avoid Service Checklist
Before you call for service, review this list. tt may save you time and expense.
The list includes common occurrences that are not the result of defective
workmanship or materials in this appliance.
This oven is equipped with a state of the art electronic oven controller. Among
its many features is a full time oven circuit diagnostics system. The controller
constantly monitors its internal circuitry as welt as several crucial oven circuits to
insure they are all operating correctly. If at any time one of these systems fails,
the controller will immediately stop operation, and beep continuously (flashing
an error code of F1 or F3* in the display window, if equipped).
OCCURRENCE
POSSIBLE CAUSE/SOLUTION
Range is not level.
Poor installation. Place oven rack in center of oven. Place a level on the oven
rack. Adjust leveling legs at base of range until the rack is level. When range is
level, cooktop may appear out of alignment if countertop is not level.
Weak, unstable floor. Be sure floor is level and can adequately support range.
Contact a carpenter to correct sagging or sloping floor.
Kitchen cabinet misalignment may make range appear to be unlevel. Be sure
cabinets are square and have sufficient room for range clearance.

Cabinets not square or are built in too tight. Contact a cabinet maker to
correct the problem.
