Problem Possible solution
Check that there is not a problem with your gas
supply. You can do this by making sure the other
gas appliances such as central heating or gas fires
are working.
Check that the main appliance fuse is working.
If you have checked the above: Allow the appli-
ance to cool for a couple of hours. The appliance
should now be working normally.
The grill and top oven work but the main oven
does not. Check that the time of day has been set on the
clock. Check that the oven is set for manual cook-
ing.
The timer does not work. Check that the instructions for the operation of the
timer are being closely followed.
The oven is not cooking evenly. Check that the appliance is correctly installed and
is level.
Check that the recommended temperatures and
shelf positions are being used.
The oven light fails to illuminate. The oven light bulb may need replacing.
If the Main Oven is set for automatic cooking the
light will illuminate when the cook time begins.
The oven temperature is too high or too low. Check that the recommended temperatures and
shelf positions are being used. Be prepared to
adjust the temperature up or down slightly to ach-
ieve the results you want.
The hob burners will not light. Ensure the burner parts have been placed cor-
rectly.
Check that there is not a problem with your gas
supply. You can do this by making sure the other
gas appliances such as central heating or gas fires
are working.
The flame colour is orange/yellow. Due to the design of the burner the flame can ap-
pear to be orange /yellow (flame disturbance) in
certain areas of the burner this is a natural occur-
rence.
The burner is not igniting or only partially lighting. Check that the burner is dry and that food spillage
or cleaning fluids are not present on the burner.
This can be dried with a cloth and stubborn marks
cleaned away with a dry nylon brush (old tooth-
brush etc).
The burner sounds noisy. It is natural for the burners to emit noise as the gas
is being drawn through the burner and may re-
duce as they heat up.
The burner is emitting a popping sound. This is a natural occurrence when the burner is
alight and does not affect the performance of the
burner.
Noise. It is normal for some metal parts on the cooker to
produce noise when in use, this is due to expan-
sion and contraction when heating up and cooling
down.
