POSSIBLE CAUSE
• Press the CLEAR/OFF pad. Allow the oven to cool and then, on models with
a door latch, unlock the door.
• Self-cleaning cycle has been selected but latch handle was not moved all the
way to the right. Move the latch handle.
• Latch handle was moved to the right but a program other than self-cleaning
was selected. Move the latch handle to the right only when setting the
self-cleaning cycle.
• If the time display flashed "F—and a number," you have a function error code.
If a function error code appears during the self-cleaning cycle, check the oven
door latch (on some models). The latch handle may have been moved, even if
only slightly, from the latched position. Make sure the latch is moved to the
right as far as it will go. Press the CLEAR/OFF pad. Allow the oven to cool for
one hour. Put the oven back into operation.
• Disconnect all power to the range for 5 minutes and then reconnect power.
If the failure code repeats, then call for service.
• This is reminding you to enter a bake temperature (see the Baking section).
• This is normal. It is caused by the heat treatment applied to the oven window.
• Improper air/gas ratio in oven. Adjust oven burner air shutter.
• An odor from the insulation around the oven liner is normal for the first few
times oven is used. This is temporary.
