Try adjusting the recipe's recommended temperature or baking time. If you feel the oven is too hot or cool, see "Adjusting Oven Temperature" section in this Use & Care Guide. • The time of day is not set. The time of day must first be set in order to operate the oven. See "Setting the clock" in the Setting oven controls section. • Make sure cord/plug is plugged correctly into outlet. • Service wiring is not complete. Contact your dealer, installing agent or authorized service agent. • Electrical power outage. Check house lights to be sure.
