Before You Call • Solutions to common problems
Oven smokes excessively when broiling.
Flames inside oven or smoking from oven
vent.
• Excessive spillovers in oven. For example this will happen for pie
spillovers or large amounts of grease left on the oven bottom. Wipe up
excessive spillovers before starting oven. If flames or excessive smoke
are present see Broil in Setting Oven Controls section.
Oven control panel beeps & displays
any F code error.
• Oven control has detected a fault or error condition. Press
key pad to
clear the error code. Try Bake or Broil function. If the F code error repeats,
remove power from appliance, wait 5 minutes and then repower appliance
and set clock with the correct time of day. Try Bake or Broil function again.
If the fault recurs, press
to clear and call 1-800-4-MY-HOME® for
assistance (See back cover).
Problem Solution
• Incorrect setting. Follow broiling instructions in Setting Oven Controls
section.
• Be sure oven door is opened to broil stop position when broiling.
• Meat too close to the broil element. Reposition the broil rack to provide
proper clearance between the meat & the element. Preheat the broil
element for searing.
• Meat not properly prepared. Remove excess fat from meat. Cut remaining
fatty edges to prevent curling, but do not cut into lean.
• Grease has built up on oven surfaces. Regular cleaning is necessary when
broiling frequently. Old grease or food spatters cause excessive smoking.
Drip bowls are turning color or distorted.
• Bottom surface of cookware extends beyond surface element and touches
cooktop surface. This can cause high enough temperatures to discolor the
drip bowls. DO NOT use cookware of this type. Pan sizes should be matched
to the size of the element. Replacement drip bowls may be purchased from
your appliance dealer.
Drip bowls are pitting or rusting.
• Foods with acids, such as tomatoes, if allowed to stand in/on bowls will
cause corrosion. Remove and wash drip bowls as soon as possible after a
spill over.
• Normal environment. Along coastal areas, houses are exposed to high salt
content in air. Protect bowls as much as possible from direct exposure to air
with high salt content.
