^ Put the lamp cover firmly back into

place.

. . . there is a distinctive smell of food
when using the oven

Make sure the catalyser is switched on.
See "Altering oven settings, setting 02"

. . . 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 tem-
perature 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 rec-

ipe. The addition of more liquid or
more eggs makes a moister mix
which would need longer to cook.

^ the roasting filter had been left in

place in front of the fan when cooking
with "Fan heat

D" or "Intensive Bake

F" or was in place for "Auto Roast

E". 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 uneven-
ness. Product information sheets give a
percentage result for standard brown-
ing tests. These refer to results for one
tray.

If the item being baked is browning
very unevenly, 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 col-
oured, shiny, or thin walled tins are
less suitable,

– whether the correct runner height

was used.
