Possible Cause
Food too close to broil 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.
Function error.
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 convection fan may automatically turn
on and off.
A cooling fan may automatically turn on
and off.
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.
Cookware or food in oven.
Number of racks in oven.
Different cooking modes.
Power failure.
What To Do
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 steam clean again or for a longer
period of time.
Close the oven door. Latch the 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 Settings section under Cooking options found on page 12.
Verify that the oven is not in Sabbath Mode. See Settings section
under Cooking options found on page 12.
Disconnect all power for at least 30 seconds and then reconnect
power. If repeating, call for service.
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 fan is designed to operate intermittently to
maximize cooking evenness. The convection fan will operate
during preheat of the bake cycle. The fan will turn off after the
oven is heated to the set temperature. This is normal.
This is normal on some models. The cooling fan will turn off and
on to cool internal parts. It may run after the oven is turned off.
This is normal. Under certain light or angles, you may see this tint
or rainbow color.
The cookware or food in the oven will cause the oven to take
longer to preheat. Remove items to reduce preheat time.
Adding more racks to the oven will cause the oven to take longer
to preheat. Remove some racks.
The different cooking modes use different preheat methods to
heat the oven for the specific cooking mode. Some modes will
take longer than others (i.e. convection bake).
Reset the clock.
