SOMETHING WRONG?

SOMETHING WRONG?

Before calling a Service Engineer, please check through the following lists.

THERE MAY BE NOTHING WRONG.

Problem

Slight odour or small amount of smoke when grill / oven used first time

Nothing Works

Check

This is normal and should cease after a short period.

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

(iv)With the selector (B) turned, the oven light does not illuminate.

Oven and Grill do not work Check to ensure the Timer is in Manual mode.

Check that the ‘Auto’ symbol is not lit up and is not flashing. See Timer section for instructions on how to return the Timer to Manual.

Oven and Grill do not work Operating the appliance under the following conditions may cause a safety device to operate.

(a)Grilling with the door closed - always grill with the door open.

(b)Grilling for excessively long period at maximum setting.

(c)Grilling with inadequate ventilation in the cabinet.

Timer Display shows "0:00" "Auto"

The power supply to your oven has possibly been interrupted, but has now come back on again. Reset the timer to the correct day and "Manual" operation using the instructions given in the timer section of the book.

Grill does not work

Check that the selector switch is set to ‘Full Grill’ or ‘Half Grill’, and

 

that the grill control is turned on.

 

Check that the door is in its grilling position.

Oven does not work

Check that the selector switch (B) is set and that the temperature

 

control (A) is set to the correct temperature.

Draught from beneath

A gentle flow of air will be blown from beneath the control panel

control panel

when the appliance is used. If the appliance is still warm, this

 

cooling fan may run on, or restart itself when all controls have

 

been turned off.

 

The fan will stop once the appliance has been cooled.

 

This is normal and not a fault.

Grill keeps turning on and off.

Cannot set an “Auto Cook” programme

When the temperature control (C) is operating at less than 6, the grill will cycle on and off, this is normal and is not a fault.

Remember: “Cook Period” is the actual length of time for which the Timer will switch the oven on, as part of an “Auto Cook” pro- gramme.
