Cooktop problems
Cause / Solution
Incorrect surface control setting. Adjust power level setting.
Be sure the correct surface control knob is turned on for the element needed.
Cookware is light weight or warped. Use only flat, evenly balanced, medium
or heavyweight cookware. Flat pans heat better than warped pans. Cookware
materials and weight of the material affect heating. Heavy and medium-
weight pans heat evenly. Because lightweight pans heat unevenly, foods may
burn easily.
Mineral deposits from water and food. Remove them using cooktop clean-
ing creme applied to the ceramic surface. Buff with a non-abrasive cloth or
sponge.
Coarse particles such as salt or hardened soils between cooktop and utensils
can cause scratches. Be sure the cooktop surface and bottoms of utensils are
clean before use. Small scratches do not affect cooking and will become less
visible with time.
Cleaning materials not recommended for ceramic-glass cooktop have been
used. Apply cooktop cleaning creme to the ceramic surface. Buff with a non-
abrasive cloth or sponge.
Cookware with a rough bottom was used. Use smooth, flat-bottomed cook-
ware.
Sliding or scraping of metal utensils on cooktop surface. Do not slide metal
utensils on the cooktop surface. Apply cooktop cleaning creme to the ceramic
surface. Buff with a non-abrasive cloth or sponge. For more information, see
"Cooktop Maintenance" on page 27
Boil overs are cooked onto the surface. When cooktop is cool, use a razor
blade scraper to remove soil. For more information see "Cooktop Mainte-
nance" on page 27
Other problems
Be sure the floor is level, strong, and stable enough to adequately support
the range.
If the floor is sagging or sloping, contact a carpenter to correct the situation.
Poor installation. Place the oven rack in the center of the oven. Place a level
on the oven rack. Adjust the leveling legs at the base of the appliance until
the rack is level.
Kitchen cabinet alignment may make range appear not level. Be sure cabinets
are square and have sufficient room for appliance clearance.
Cabinets not square or are built in too tightly. Contact the builder or installer
to make the appliance accessible.
Carpet interferes with appliance. Provide sufficient space so the appliance
can be lifted over carpet. Installation over carpet is not advised. See the
installation instructions for guidelines specific to your appliance.
Be sure the oven light is secure in the socket.
