Rangemaster U109941 - 02 manual The oven is not cooking evenly, Oven not coming on

The oven is not cooking evenly

If you are cooking a large item, be prepared to turn it round during cooking.

If two racks are used, check that space has been left for the heat to circulate. When a baking sheet is put into the oven, make sure it is placed centrally on the rack.

Check that the door seal is not damaged.

A dish of water when placed on the rack should be the same depth all over. (For example, if it is deeper at the back, then the back of the range should be raised up or the front lowered).

If the range is not level arrange for your supplier to level it for you.

Oven not coming on

Is the power on?

If not there may be something wrong with the power supply. Is the range supply on at the circuit breaker?

Have you set a cooking function?

Oven temperature getting hotter as the range gets older

If turning the knob down has not worked or only worked for a short time then you may need a new thermostat. This should be installed by a service technician (see the ‘Service and Parts’ section of the instructions).

Oven temperature getting hotter as the cooker gets older

If turning the knob down has not worked or only worked for a short time then you may need a new thermostat. This should be fitted by a service person.

An oven light is not working

The bulb has probably burnt out. You can buy a replacement bulb (which is not covered under the warranty) from a good electrical shop. Ask for a 15W

–230V lamp, FOR OVENS. It must be a special bulb, heat resistant to 300°C (Fig.6-1).

Turn off the power at the circuit breaker.

Make sure the oven is cool. Open the oven door and remove the oven racks.

Unscrew the bulb cover by turning counter clockwise. It may be very stiff (Fig.6-2).

Taking care to protect your fingers in case the bulb should shatter, unscrew the old bulb.

Screw in the new bulb; screw back the bulb cover. Turn on the circuit breaker and check that the bulb now lights.
