SOMETHING NOT WORKING?

We recommend that your appliance has an annual gas safety check carried out by our approved service organisation.

Please carry out the following checks on your appliance before calling a Service Engineer. It may be that the problem is a simple one that you can solve yourself without the expense of a service call.

In-guarantee customers should make sure that the checks have been made as the engineer will make a charge if the fault is not a mechanical or electrical breakdown.

Please note that proof of purchase is required for in-guarantee service calls.

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.

Due to the design of the burner the flame can appear to be orange /yellow (flame disturbance) in certain areas of the burner this is a natural occurrence.

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 toothbrush etc).

It is natural for the burners to emit noise as the gas is being drawn through the burner and may reduce as they heat up.

This is a natural occurrence when the burner is alight and does not affect the performance of the burner.

It is normal for some metal parts on the cooker to produce noise when in use, this is due to expansion and contraction when heating up and cooling down.
