Problem Solution
Oven smoke 
excessively 
during broiling
•  Meat too close to the broiler element. Reposition the rack to provide more 
clearance between the meat and the broiler. Preheat broil element for quick 
searing operation.
•  Meat not properly prepared. Remove excess fat from meat. Cut remaining fatty 
edges to prevent curling, but do not cut into the lean.
•  Grid on broiler pan wrong side-up. Grease does not drain into broiler pan. Always 
place the grid on the broiler pan with the ribs up and the slots down to allow grease 
to drip into the pan.
•  Broiler pan used without grid or grid cover with aluminum foil. DO NOT use the 
broiler pan without the grid or cover the grid with aluminum foil.
•  Oven needs to be cleaned. Grease has built up on oven surfaces. Regular 
cleaning is necessary when broiling frequently. Grease or food spatters cause 
excessive smoking.
Soil not 
completely 
removed after 
self-cleaning 
cycle is 
completed
•  Failure to clean bottom, from top of oven, frame of oven or door area outside 
oven seal. These areas are not in the self-cleaning area, but get hot enough 
to burn on residue. Clean these areas before the self-cleaning cycle is started. 
Burned on residue can be cleaned with a stiff nylon brush and water or a nylon 
scrubber. Be careful not to damage the oven gasket.
•  Excessive spillovers in oven. Set the self-clean cycle for longer cleaning time.
Surface element 
does not heat
•  No power to appliance. Check/reset breaker or replace fuse. If the problem is a 
circuit overload, or improper connection of the armored cable supplied with the 
appliance, have this situation corrected by a qualifi ed electrician.
•  Too low heat setting. Turn control to a slightly higher setting until element comes 
on.
•  Incorrect control is on. Be sure to use correct control for the element needed.
Surface element 
too hot or not hot 
enough
•  Incorrect control setting. Raise or lower setting until proper amount of heat is 
obtained. Dial markings are an indicator of relative heat settings and will vary 
slightly.
•  Lightweight or warped pans being used. Use only fl at, evenly balanced, medium 
or heavyweight cookware.
•  Voltage is incorrect. Be sure appliance is properly connected to the specifi ed 
power source.
• Use only fl at bottom, evenly balanced, medium or heavyweight cookware. Pans 
having a fl at bottom heat better than warped pans. Cookware material affects 
heating. Heavy and medium weight pans heat evenly. Because lightweight pans 
heat unevenly, foods may burn easily.
Food not heating 
evenly
•  Improper cookware. Select fl at-bottomed cookware of a proper size to fi t 
element.
•  Incorrect control setting. Raise or lower setting until proper amount of heat is 
obtained.
Scratches or 
abrasions on 
ceramic glass 
cooktop surface
•  Coarse particles (such as salt or sand) are between cooktop and utensil. Be sure 
cooktop surface and bottom of utensils are clean before use. Small scratches do 
not affect cooking and will become less visible with use.
•  Cleaning materials not recommended for glass ceramic cooktop have been 
used. See Ceramic-Glass Cooktop section in this Owner’s Guide.
•  Cookware with rough bottom has been used. Use fl at-bottomed, smooth 
utensils. See Selecting Surface Cooking Utensils in this Owner’s Guide.
