Question: When the oven is on Bake and I set a temperature such as 350 degrees, do both the upper element (known as the broiling element) and the lower oven element heat?

It seems to take longer than usual to get to temperature. The broil (top) element does work when Broil is selected.

Thank you

Yes, in the older ranges both the bake and broil element are used in the preheat.

If the broil element is not working this would make the preheat time longer.

Can you please verify your model number as I can't located it on our database?
