Servicing
Disconnect the cooker from the electricity supply
before commencing servicing, particularly before
removing any of the following: control panel,
side panels, ceramic hob, or any of the electrical
components or cover boxes.
Prior to reconnection, check that the appliance is
electrically safe.
1 To Remove the Control Panel
Remove the handrail by removing the two end bracket fixing
screws.
Pull off the push fit control panel end caps at each end and
remove the end fixing screws under the end cap.
Pull off all the control knobs. Open the grill and oven doors and
remove the control panel fixing screws underneath the control
panel. The screws directly below the clock are for the clock fixing
bracket - don’t remove them at this stage.
Lift the control panel, pull forward and disconnect the wiring
from the rear.
Reassemble in reverse order. When replacing leads, refer to the
wiring diagram. Check the operation of the timer.
2. To Lift up the Ceramic Hob
Pull the cooker forward. Unscrew the two screws which are
located at the rear of either side of the cooker underneath the
grill trim. Push the hob backwards to release the front catchment
bracket. Lift the hob.
Hold the hob in place using the rod attached to the underside
of the hob, by locating the loose end into the central hole in the
top of the inner control panel.
Caution
The ceramic hob material is much more sensitive to
scratches on the underside than the top.
Lift up the ceramic hob at the front and prop it in position with a
non-metallic prop.
Take care not to touch or scratch the underside of the
ceramic as this will weaken the material and cause the
top to shatter.
3. To replace a Hob Element
Lift up the ceramic hob - see section 2. The elements are now
accessible.
4. To Remove a Side Panel
Remove the control panel - see section 1. Pull the cooker
forward. Remove the four retaining screws for each panel
(one at the front base, one on the top, and two at the rear).
Reassemble in reverse order.
5. To Replace the Ignition or Light Switch
Remove the control panel - see section 1.
NB. The old switch may be destroyed during removal. Remove
the old switch from its bezel by gripping the switch body
behind the control panel and twisting sharply. The switch
bezel can then be removed by folding back its locking wings
and pushing forward. Fit the new bezel to the control panel
by first lining up the raised key on its body with the cutout in
the control panel and pushing it in from the front.
Assemble the new switch to the bezel by lining up the key
sections and pushing home. Fit the new button by pushing in
from the front.
Replace the Control Panel in reverse order and test for correct
operation.
6. To Replace the Clock
Remove the control panel - see section 1. Pull off the timer
control button(s).
Remove the timer/mounting bracket assembly from the
control panel by removing the fixing screws.
Remove the timer from its mounting bracket by depressing
the plastic lugs on the timer case, at the same time pulling
the unit forward.
Reassemble in reverse order. When replacing the leads, refer
to the wiring diagram in this manual. Check the operation of
the timer.
7. To Replace a Thermostat
Lift up the ceramic hob top (see section 2). Remove the control
panel (see section 1). Open the appropriate oven door and
remove the oven furniture.
Right Hand oven
Remove thermostat phial cover (2 screws). Unclip the
thermostat phial from the clips in the oven back.
Left Hand oven
Pull the cooker forward to gain access to the cover box
at the rear of the cooker. Remove the screws securing
the cover and lift clear.
Feed the thermostat capillary out of the oven. Disconnect the
wiring from the thermostat. Remove the two screws holding the
thermostat to the mounting panel. Fit the new thermostat and
reassemble in reverse order. Ensure that the phial is clipped to
the oven back, with the phial centrally positioned between the
clips.
Check the operation of the thermostat.
