POSSIBLE CAUSES AND/OR SOLUTIONS
Range converted improperly - If propane gas is being used, contact a service technician or see the
"Warranty" section for contact information.
Range is not level - Level the range. See the Installation Instructions.
The set temperature was incorrect - Double-check the recipe in a reliable cookbook.
Oven was not preheated - See the "Baking and Roasting" section.
Racks were positioned improperly - See the "Positioning Racks and Bakeware" section.
Not enough air circulation around bakeware - See the "Positioning Racks and Bakeware" section.
Darker browning of food caused by dull or dark bakeware - Lower oven temperature 25°F (15°C) or
move rack to a higher position in the oven.
Lighter browning of food caused by shiny or light-colored bakeware - Move rack to a lower position in
the oven.
Batter distributed unevenly in pan - Check that batter is level in the pan.
Incorrect length of cooking time was used - Adjust cooking time.
Oven door was not closed - Be sure that the bakeware does not keep the door from closing.
Oven door was opened during cooking - Oven peeking releases oven heat and can result in longer
cooking times.
Oven door was open for too long - If the oven door remains open for too long, heat escapes and the
temperature will drop.
Rack is too close to bake burner, making baked items too brown on bottom - Move rack to higher
position in the oven.
Pie crusts browning too quickly - Use aluminum foil to cover the edge of the crust and/or reduce baking
temperature.
POSSIBLE CAUSES AND/OR SOLUTIONS
Wet burner - Allow it to dry.
These sounds are normal operational noises that can be heard each time the bake or broil burners
ignite during the cycle.
Gas valve is opening or cycling on and will make a single pop when it snaps open from the solenoid.
It sounds similar to a suction cup being pulled off of a piece of glass - This is normal.
Bake or Broil burner is igniting - This is normal.
Range converted improperly - If propane gas is being used, contact a service technician or see the
"Warranty" section for contact information.
