Oven temperature getting hotter as the
cooker gets older
If turning the knob down has not worked or only
worked for a short time then you may need a
new thermostat. This should be fitted by a
service person.
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?
The oven light is not working
The bulb has probably blown. You can buy a
replacement bulb (which is not covered under
the guarantee) from a good electrical shop. Ask
for an Edison screw fitting 15w 240v lamp, FOR
OVENS. It must be a special bulb, heat resistant
to 300 °C. See the HELP leaflet for spares by
mail order.
Open the oven door and remove the Handyrack
(if fitted) and oven shelves.
Turn off the power supply.
Unscrew the bulb cover by turning
anticlockwise. Unscrew the old bulb. Screw in
the new bulb, screw back the bulb cover. Turn
on the electricity supply and check that the bulb
now lights.
Unscrew the old bulb and fit the new one.
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’
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?
