If something

goes wrong ...

Disposal of your product

To minimise the risk of injury to children please

dispose of your product carefully and safely.

Remove all doors and lids. Remove the mains cable

(where fitted) by cutting off flush with the appliance

and always ensure that no plug is left in a condition

where it could be connected to the electricity

supply.

To help the environment, Local Authority instructions

should be followed for the disposal of your product.

Disposal of old electrical appliances

The European Directive 2002/96/EC on Waste

Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE),

requires that old household electrical appliances

must not be disposed of in the normal unsorted

municipal waste stream. Old appliances must be

collected separately in order to optimise the

recovery and recycling of the materials they contain

and reduce the impact on human health and the

environment.

The crossed out "wheeled bin" symbol on the

product reminds you of your obligation, that when

you dispose of the appliance it must be separately

collected.

Consumers should contact their local authority or

retailer for information concerning the correct

disposal of their old appliance.

PROBLEM

CHECK

Timer is flashing '00.00 '

The power supply to your oven has possibly been interrupted, but

has now come back on again. Reset the timer to the correct time of

day using the instructions given in the timer section of the book.

Oven temperatures too high or low

Check temperature and shelf positions are as recommended in the

Oven Temperature Charts. It may be necessary to increase or

decrease the recommended temperature slightly to suit your taste.

Oven does not cook evenly

Check:

(a) Temperature and shelf positions are as recommended in the

Oven Temperature Charts

(b) Oven utensils being used allow sufficient air flow around them.

Oven light does not work

The oven light is not covered by the guarantee. The part is easily

changed (see section 'Replacement of Oven Light'). A new light

bulb may be obtained from our Parts department see Key

Contacts, back page.

Draught from beneath control panel

A gentle flow of air will be blown from beneath the 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.

Steam / Condensation in the oven after use.

Steam is a by - product of cooking any food with a high water

contact. To help minimise always:

(a) Try to avoid leaving food in the oven to cool after being cooked.

(b) Use a covered container, wherever possible.
