6. Troubleshooting
Hotplate burners will not light
Make sure that the burner parts have been replaced
correctly after wiping or removing for cleaning. See the
‘Cleaning’ section.
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, verify that the power is on by checking that the
clock is illuminated.
Steam is coming from the oven
When cooking foods with high water content (e.g. oven
fries) there may be some steam visible at the rear grille.
Take care when opening the oven door, as there may
be a momentary puff of steam when the oven door
is opened. Stand well back and allow any steam to
disperse.
The oven is not cooking evenly
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. See the ‘Cooking Tips’ section.
Check that the door seal is not damaged and that the
door is held firmly against the seal.
Oven not coming on
Is the power on? Is the clock illuminated? If not, there
may be something wrong with the power supply.
Oven temperature getting hotter as the cooker gets older
If turning the temperature down using the oven control
knob has not worked, or has only worked for a short
time, then you may need a new thermostat. This should
be fitted by a service person.
The 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 25 W –
230 V lamp, FOR OVENS. It must be a special bulb, heat
resistant to 300 °C
(

)
.
Before removing the existing bulb, turn off the power
supply and make sure that the oven is cool. Open the
oven door and remove the oven shelves.
Unscrew the bulb cover by turning counter-clockwise. It
may be very stiff
(
Fig.6.2
)
.
Taking care to protect your fingers with a glove 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.
