6. TROUBLESHOOTING&TRANSPORT

6.1 TROUBLESHOOTING

If you still have a problem with your appliance after checking these basic troubleshooting steps, please contact an authorised service person or qualified technician.

Problem Possible Cause Solution
Oven does not switch on. Power is switched off.		Check whether there is power supplied.Also check that other kitchen appliances are working.
No heat or oven does not warm up.	Oven temperature control is incorrectly set.Oven door has been left open.	Check that the oven temperature control knob is set correctly.
Oven light (if available) does not operate.	Lamp has failed.Electrical supply is disconnected or switched off.	Replace lamp according to the instructions.Make sure the electrical supply is switched on at wall socket outlet.
Cooking is uneven within the oven.	Oven shelves are incorrectly positioned.	Check that the recommended temperatures and shelf positions are being used.Do not frequently open the door unless you are cooking things that need to be turned. If you open the door often, the interior temperature will be lower and this may affect the results of your cooking.
The timer buttons cannot be pressed properly.	There is foreign matter caught between the timer buttons.Touch model: there is moisture on the control panel.The key lock function is set.	Remove the foreign matter and try again.Remove the moisture and try again.Check whether the key lock function is set.
The oven fan (if available) is noisy.	Oven shelves are vibrating.	Check that the oven is level.Check that the shelves and any bake ware are not vibrating or in contact with the oven back panel.
The cooling fan continues to operate after the oven is switched off.	Electronically-controlled oven fan automatically runs for a certain amount of time to cool the oven.	The fan switches off automatically when the electronic components have cooled sufficiently.
The oven has switched itself off.	Electronically-controlled ovens switch off automatically if no function is in operation.	The oven will switch itself off automatically to save energy if no other action is taken within a certain time frame after switching it on or after the end of a cooking programme.
If the door is opened during a fan-assisted function, the internal fan will stop.	Electronically-controlled ovens with a door switch will stop cooking if the oven door is opened.	It is a normal operation of the appliance, useful when cooking foods in order to avoid excessive heat escaping. When the door is closed, the oven will restart to normal operation.

6.2 TRANSPORT

If you need to transport the product, use the original product packaging and carry it using its original case. Follow the transport signs on the packaging. Tape all independent parts to the product to prevent damaging the product during transport.

If you do not have the original packaging, prepare a carriage box so that the appliance, especially the external surfaces of the product, is protected against external threats.

8. ENERGY SAVING ADVICE

8.1 FOR BUILT-IN OVENS

-Cooking processes

-Take all the accessories that are not needed in the cooking process out of the oven.

-Choose the lowest temperature specified in the recipe and control the food after the shortest specified time period.

-Preheat the oven only when necessary according to the recipe.

-Avoid opening the oven as far as possible during the cooking process.

-Preferably use matte, dark baking molds and dishes made of non-reflective materials (enamelled steel, heat resistant glass, coated aluminum / cast iron). Shiny materials like stainless steel or aluminum reflect heat away from the food. Also, do not place the heat-reflecting stanniol at the bottom of the oven or on the racks.

-Monitor the cooking time to avoid wasting energy when preparing the food. Set a required cooking time, or use a roasting thermometer if available.

-Hot air Plus is a heating form that can be used for preparing many dishes at lower temperatures than with other heating forms.

With over-under heat the heat is immediately distributed throughout the oven volume and thus, many dishes can be evenly prepared on several levels at the same time.-

ECO hot air is an innovative form of heating,

that is especially suitable for small quantities, e.g. deep-frozen pizzas, bread or cookies, but also for meat dishes and roasts. This heating form saves up to 30% of energy if compared to regular heating forms, and thus it guarantees an energy-efficient cooking experience with optimal heat utilization. Avoid opening the oven during the cooking process.

-Use the Grill with ventilation heating form for grill dishes as far as possible. This utilizes lower temperatures than other grill heating forms

-If possible, prepare several dishes at the same time. Place them side by side or on different oven racks.

-Dishes that cannot be prepared simultaneously should be prepared right after each other to utilize the heat in the oven as much as possible.
