49-80668-2
Possible Cause
Light bulb is loose or defective.
Pad operating light is broken.
The temperature is too high to set a
self-clean operation.
Oven controls improperly set.
Excessive soil or grease.
Food too close to burner element.
Oven too hot.
Oven controls improperly set.
Oven was heavily soiled.
The self-clean cycle has been selected
but the door is not closed.
The oven door is locked because
the temperature inside the oven
has not dropped below the locking
temperature.
You have a function error code.
If the function code repeats.
A fuse in your home may be blown or the
circuit breaker tripped.
The clock is turned off.
Oven is in Sabbath Mode.
Power outage or surge
This is normal in a new oven and will
disappear in time.
An odor from the insulation around
the inside of the oven is normal for the
first few times the oven is used.
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.
What To Do
Tighten or replace bulb.
Call for service.
Allow the oven to cool and reset the controls.
See the Cleaning the Oven section.
Press the Cancel/Off pad. Open the windows to rid
the room of smoke. Wait until the LOCKED light goes
off. Wipe up the excess soil and reset the clean cycle.
Lower the rack position of the food.
Allow the oven to cool below locking temperature.
See the Cleaning the Oven section.
Clean up heavy spillovers before starting the clean
cycle. Heavily soiled ovens may need to self-clean
again or for a longer period of time.
Close the oven door.
Press the Cancel/Off pad. Allow the oven to cool.
Press the Cancel/Off pad. Allow the oven to cool for one
hour. Put the oven back into operation.
Disconnect all power to the oven for at least 30
seconds and then reconnect power. If the function
error code repeats, call for service.
Replace the fuse or reset the circuit breaker.
See the Special Features section.
Verify that the oven is not in Sabbath Mode.
See the Special Features section.
Reset the clock. If the oven was in use, you must
reset it by pressing the Cancel/Off pad, setting the
clock and resetting any cooking function.
To speed the process, set a self-clean cycle for a
minimum of 3 hours. See the Cleaning the Oven
section.
This is temporary and will go away after several uses
or a self-clean cycle.
This is normal. The cooling fan will turn on to cool
internal parts. It may run for up to 1-1/2 hours after the
oven is turned off.
This is normal. Under certain light or angles, you may
see this tint or rainbow color.
