Avoid Service Checklist - KENMORE ELITE 790.75503 Manual De Uso

You may save the cost and inconvenience of an unnecessary service call by first reviewing this
Checklist of commonly encountered problem situations.
You will be charged for a service call while the appliance is in warranty if the problem is not
caused by defective product workmanship or materials.
Your new appliance is a carefully engineered product. Many times, what appears to be a
reason to call service requires nothing more than a simple adjustment you can easily make in
your own home.
OCCURRENCE
Range is not level.
Cannot move appliance easily.
Appliance must be accessible for service.
Entire range or oven does not operate.
*Oven control beeps and displays F1, F3
or F9.

work.
Surface unit does not heat.
Surface burners do not light.

around.
POSSIBLE CAUSE/SOLUTION
Poor installation. To level range, refer to Leveling Guide, page 8 in the Installation
Instructions. 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.
