Troubleshooting

Hotplate ignition or hotplate

burners faulty

Is the power on? Is the clock illuminated? If not there

maybe something wrong with the power supply.

See ‘power supply’ section further on.

Are the sparker (ignition electrode) or burner slots

blocked by debris?

Is the burner trim correctly located?

Are the burner caps correctly located?

See the section entitled ‘Cleaning your cooker’

Hotplate burners will not light

If only one or all the hotplate burners will not light,

make sure that the parts have been replaced

correctly after wiping or removing for cleaning.

Check that there is not a problem with your gas

supply. You can do this by making sure that other gas

appliances you may have are working.

Do the burners spark when you push the button? If

not check the power is on - is the clock illuminated?

A crack has appeared in the

Warmer plate’s surface

Disconnect the cooker immediately from the power

supply and arrange for its repair. Don’t use the

cooker until after the repair. See the HELP leaflet for

how to contact a service person.

The knobs get hot when I use the

oven or the grill, can I avoid this?

Yes, this is caused by heat rising from the oven or

the grill, and heating them up. Don’t leave the oven

door open. Make sure that the grill pan is pushed

right back to the ‘back stop’ when grilling.

Grill Ignition faulty

Is the power on? Is the clock illuminated? If not there

maybe something wrong with the power supply. See

‘power supply’ section further on.

Grill not cooking properly

Are you using the pan and trivet supplied with the

cooker? Is the pan being used on the runners, not

the floor of the compartment? Is the grill tray pushed

fully back to stop?

Oven ignition faulty

Is the power on? Is the clock running? - if not there

may be something wrong with the power supply.

See the section on ‘Checking the power supply’.

Check that the electrode and burner slots are not

blocked by debris.

Has the Timer been set to auto by mistake, or after

power cut?

Has the Timer been set correctly but oven tap not left

OFF by mistake?
Is the key symbol ( ) showing in the display? See the

Clock section of the instructions for more information

on the key lock feature of the clock.

Oven not coming on when turned

on manually

Is the power on? Is the clock illuminated? If not there

may be something wrong with the power supply. Is

the cooker supply on at the isolator switch? Is the

clock flashing 0.00? If so set it to the correct time of

day. Has the Timer been set to AUTO by mistake.

If AUTO is showing on the clock display, press the

‘cook period’ button and reduce any set cooking time

showing to 0.00, with the (+) and (-) buttons. Press
the button twice.
Is the key symbol ( ) showing in the display? See the

Clock section of the instructions for more information

on the key lock feature of the clock.

Oven not coming on when

automatic cooking

Timer set correctly but oven knob left OFF by

mistake?
Is the key symbol ( ) showing in the display? See the

Clock section of the instructions for more information

on the key lock feature of the clock.

The oven is not cooking evenly

Do not use a tin or baking tray larger than 340mm x

305mm.

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

round during cooking.

If two shelves are used, check that space has been

left for the heat to circulate. When the baking tray is

put into the oven, make sure it is placed centrally on

the shelf.

Check that the door seal is not damaged and that

the door catch adjusted so that the door is held firmly

against the seal.

NB the seal is intended to have a gap at the bottom

of the door

A dish of water when placed on the shelf should be

the same depth all over. (For example, if it is deeper

at the back, then the back of the cooker should be

raised up or the front lowered). If the cooker is not

level arrange for your supplier to level it for you.

Food is cooking too slowly, too

quickly, or burning

Cooking times may differ from your previous oven.

The oven control settings and cooking times are

intended to be used only as a guide. Individual

tastes may require the temperature to be altered

either way, to get the results you want. Try cooking

at a higher shelf position and/or higher temperature.
