Solutions to Common Problems
POSSIBLE CAUSE/SOLUTION
Poor installation. Place oven rack in center of oven. Place a level on the oven
rack. Adjust leveling legs at base of range until the rack is level. When range is
level, cooktop may appear out of alignment if countertop is not level.
Weak, unstable floor. Be sure floor is level and can adequately support range.
Contact a carpenter to correct sagging or sloping floor.
Kitchen cabinet misalignment may make range appear to be unlevel. Be sure
cabinets are square and have sufficient room for range clearance.
Cabinets not square or are built in too tight. Contact a cabinet maker to correct
the problem.
Contact builder or installer to make appliance accessible.
Carpeting interferes with range. Provide sufficient space so range can be lifted
over carpet.
Make sure cord/plug is tightly into outlet.
Service wiring is not complete. Contact your Sears Service Center, installing
agent or authorized servicer.
Power outage. Check house lights to be sure. Call your local electric company
for service.
No power to the appliance. Check steps under "Entire Cooktop Does Not
Operate" in this Before You Call checklist.
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 to be
used.
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.
Voltage is incorrect. Be sure appliance is properly connected to the specified
power source. If your not sure about this requirement call 1-800-4-MY-HOME®
for service (See back cover).
Lightweight or warped pans were used. Be sure to use proper cookware. Use
only flat bottom, evenly balanced medium or heavyweight cookware. Heavy and
medium weight pans heat evenly. Because lightweight pans heat unevenly,
foods may burn easily.
