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 pan
pushed fully back to stop?
When you pull the
grill pan forward is the
wide rim at the front?
It's important that the
wider part is at the front.
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.
Turn off the power supply.
Make sure the oven is cool. Open the oven door
and remove the oven shelves.
Unscrew the bulb cover by turning anticlockwise. It
may be very stiff.
Taking care to protect your fingers in case the bulb
should shatter, 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.
Hotplate ignition or hotplate burners faulty
Is the power on? Is the clock illuminated? If not
there maybe something wrong with the power
supply.
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?
