Something Wrong with your Cooker?
Before calling a Service Engineer, please check through the following lists.
THERE MAY BE NOTHING WRONG.
If you find that the timer display is blank, then it is likely
that there is no electricity supply to your oven.
Check:
(i)
That the main cooker wall is switched on
(ii)
Other appliances, to see if you have had a
power cut
(iii)
The main circuit breaker for the property
Operating the cooker under the following conditions may
cause a safety device to operate:
(a)
Grilling with the door closed - Always grill with the
door fully open
(b)
Grilling for an excessively long period at maximum
setting - see Grilling guide.
Switch off appliance and allow to cool for approx 30 mins.
Switch the cooker back on and check that the Grill / Top
oven is now operating.
Ensure that the top oven control is turned fully off.
When the Grill control is operating at less than its
maximum setting, the Grill will cycle on and off, this is
normal and not a fault.
The power supply to your oven has possibly been interrupted,
but has now come back on again. Reset the timer to the
correct time of day using the instructions given in the
timer section of the book.
To cancel the audible tone:
- press the manual button once.
- press the minute minder button once.
Slight odour or small
amount of smoke when grill
/ oven used first time
This is normal and should cease after a short period.
Oven temperatures too
high or low
Check temperature and shelf positions are as recommended
in the Oven Temperature Charts.
It may be necessary to increase or decrease the recommended
temperature slightly to suit your taste.
Oven does not cook evenly
Check:
(a)
Temperature and shelf positions are as
recommended in the Oven Temperature Charts.
(b)
Oven utensils being used allow sufficient air flow
around them.
