Problem solving
.. . there is a distinctive smell of food when using the oven.
This applies to model H 334 B KAT only:
Check the position of the lever for switching on the catalyser. If it is at the "0" position the catalyser is switched off.
To switch the catalyser on, please push the lever over to the right to position "I".
.. . no noise is heard when the oven door is opened during operation.
This is not a fault.
If the door is opened during operation, the door contact switch causes the oven heating, and the fan if on "Fan" setting, to be switched off.
.. . a noise can be heard after baking, roasting or grilling.
This is not a fault.
The cooling fan continues to run for a while after the oven has been switched off to prevent any humidity building up in the oven, on the control panel or in the oven housing unit. When the temperature has fallen sufficiently the fan switches off automatically.
The temperature will fall faster when the oven door is opened partially or fully.
.. . cakes and biscuits are not cooked after following the times given in the chart.
Check whether,
^the correct temperature was set.
^there has been a change to the recipe. The addition of more liquid or more eggs makes a moister mix which would need longer to cook.
^the roasting filter was left in front of the fan when baking with Fan heat D. In this case baking times might be lengthened by 10 to 15 minutes.
.. . cakes or biscuits are unevenly browned.
There will always be a slight unevenness. Product information sheets give a percentage result for standard browning tests. These refer to results for one tray.
If browning is very uneven, check
when baking with Fan Heat D:
–whether the temperature was set too high,
–whether the roasting filter was in place,
–whether the correct runner height was used.
when baking with Conventional A:
–the colour and composition of the baking tins being used. Light coloured, shiny, or thin walled tins are less suitable,
–whether the correct runner height was used.
