Common Issues and Troubleshooting
-
**Self-Cleaning Cycle Will Not Operate**
Common reasons for the self-cleaning cycle not operating include the oven door not being fully closed, the function not being entered correctly, or a timed self-clean cycle being set improperly -
**Oven Cooking Results Not as Expected**
Cooking results may be unsatisfactory due to incorrect temperature settings, improper preheating, incorrect rack positions, or unsuitable bakeware. Issues such as batter distribution, door opening during cooking, and inadequate air circulation can also affect outcomes -
**Oven Will Not Operate**
This issue can be caused by the Control Lock feature being activated, the Sabbath Mode being set, or if one oven in a double oven model is in a self-cleaning cycle, which prevents the other oven from operating -
**Display Shows Error Messages**
Error codes on the display can indicate power failure, the oven being in Demo Mode, or other system errors. Solutions can include resetting the clock or exiting Demo Mode -
**Long Preheat Times**
Preheating might take longer if certain cycles do not require it or if oven racks are not removed prior to preheating. Typically, it takes about six minutes to reach 350°F with all racks inside
Maintenance Recommendations
-
1. **Task**: Clean Oven Cavity and Door Interior
Frequency: **Frequency**: After Cooking
**Details**: Wipe food spills after the oven cools to prevent staining and etching. Do not use oven cleaners on the cavity. Use a damp sponge for optimal results, especially before running a self-cleaning cycle. -
2. **Task**: Self-Cleaning Cycle
Frequency: **Frequency**: Every Few Months
**Details**: Use the self-cleaning cycle for cleaning the oven’s interior. Suggested durations are 1 hour and 15 minutes for light soils, 1 hour and 40 minutes for medium, and 2 hours for heavy soils. -
3. **Task**: Clean Exterior Surfaces
Frequency: **Frequency**: As Needed
**Details**: Use a glass cleaner on a soft cloth for the control panel and oven door exterior. For stainless steel surfaces, use a suitable cleaner like Affresh® Stainless Steel Cleaner, rubbing in the direction of the grain to avoid damage. -
4. **Task**: Clean Oven Racks
Frequency: **Frequency**: As Needed
**Details**: Clean with a steel-wool pad. For racks that are discolored and hard to slide, lightly coat with vegetable oil. -
5. **Task**: Replace Oven Light
Frequency: **Frequency**: When Bulb Burns Out
**Details**: Ensure the oven is cool and the controls are turned off. Use a standard 25 W appliance bulb for replacement.
- Before cleaning, ensure all controls are off and the oven is cool. Use soap, water, and a soft cloth or sponge for best results.
- For the exterior porcelain enamel surfaces, clean food spills containing acids like vinegar and tomato immediately with a glass cleaner or mild liquid cleaner to protect the finish.
- Avoid using abrasive cleaners, steel-wool pads, or other harsh materials on stainless steel surfaces to prevent damage. Instead, use a dedicated stainless steel cleaner, rubbing in the direction of the grain.
- Do not clean the oven gasket to maintain proper sealing. Avoid using any commercial oven cleaners in or around the oven.
- Remove and clean oven racks with a steel-wool pad if they become discolored. A light coating of vegetable oil can help sliding.

Energy Efficiency Tips
- Remove unused oven racks before preheating to reduce preheat time.
- Use the Rapid Preheat feature to shorten preheating times when baking on a single rack.
- Avoid opening the oven door during cooking; instead, use the oven light to check on food progress.
- Set the power consumption to 13 Amp if your household has a lower power capacity for reduced energy usage.
- Use the convection bake feature for more even cooking on multiple racks, potentially reducing cooking times.
- **Do Not Touch Heating Elements or Interior Surfaces**: Heating elements may be hot even if they are dark in color. Oven interior surfaces become hot enough to cause burns.
- **Proper Installation**: Ensure that the oven is correctly installed and grounded by a qualified technician to reduce the risk of electrical shock or fire.
- **Do Not Use Water on Grease Fires**: Smother flames or use a dry chemical or foam-type extinguisher.
- **Use Only Dry Potholders**: Moist or damp potholders on hot surfaces may result in burns from steam.
- **Do Not Heat Unopened Food Containers**: Pressure build-up may cause the container to burst and result in injury.
