Oven Problem
Oven light is not working properly.
Oven light does not turn off.
Cannot remove lens cover on light.
Oven is not self-cleaning properly.
Clock and timer are not working properly.
"E" and a number appears in display and control beeps.
With a new oven there is a strong odor when oven is turned
on.
Control does not react when a key is touched.
Fan is running during modes that do not use convection.
Warm air or steam escapes from oven vent.
Cooling fan runs even when the oven is turned off.
Oven door closes faster/slower than normal.
Possible Causes and Suggested Solutions
Replace or reinsert the light bulb if loose or defective.
Touching the bulb with fingers may cause the bulb to
burn out.
Check for obstruction in oven door. Check to see if
hinge is bent.
There may be soil build-up around the lens cover. Wipe
lens cover area with a clean dry towel prior to attemping
to remove the lens cover.
Allow the oven to cool before running self-clean. Always
wipe out loose soils or heavy spillovers before running
self-clean. If oven is badly soiled, set oven for the maxi-
mum self-clean time.
Make sure there is electrical power to oven.
This is a fault code. Follow the instructions in the display.
If the code remains or there are no instructions in the
display, press INFO to display more information (if appli-
cable) and to turn off the beep. If the code is still dis-
played, write down the fault code number, turn off the
oven, and call Service.
This is normal with a new oven and will disappear after a
few uses. Operating the self-clean cycle also "burns-off"
the smell more quickly.
Be sure that pad is clean. Touch the center of the touch-
pad. Use the flat part of your finger.
On some models, the convection fan runs while the oven
is preheating for the bake mode. This is normal.
It is normal to see or feel steam or warm air escaping
from the oven vent. Do not block the vent.
This is normal. The cooling fan will continue to run, even
after the oven has been turned off, until the oven has
cooled sufficiently.
The soft-close door hinges contain a damping fluid that
is affected by temperature. If the oven is in a cold envi-
ronment, the door will close slower than it will in a
warmer environment. A warmer than normal environ-
ment, such as when cooking, may cause the door to
close slightly faster.
