Frequently Asked Questions - AFC 231 S Arçelik

How do I preheat the Arçelik AFC 231 S oven?

Turn the function knob to the desired mode (e.g., Fan Forced) and set the temperature using the thermostat knob. Wait until the thermostat light turns off, indicating the oven has reached the set temperature.

What is the best way to clean the oven interior?

For light soil, use a damp cloth and mild detergent. The rear wall has a catalytic coating that burns off splashes during cooking. For heavy stains, use a specialized oven cleaner following the manufacturer's instructions.

Why is my oven not heating up?

Check that the oven is properly plugged in and the power supply is on. Verify that the timer is set to manual mode (not on a delayed start). If the problem persists, the heating element or thermostat may be faulty; contact an authorized service.

Can I use aluminum foil in the oven?

Yes, but avoid covering the oven bottom directly. Place food in oven-safe dishes and cover with foil to prevent spattering. Do not let foil touch the heating elements.

How do I activate the child lock?

Press and hold the + and - buttons on the timer panel for 3 seconds until a lock symbol appears on the display. To deactivate, repeat the same action.

What does the 'Fan Forced' function do?

This function uses a fan to circulate hot air evenly around the oven, allowing you to cook multiple dishes at once without flavor mixing. It is ideal for baking and roasting.

How do I replace the oven light bulb?

Disconnect the power, remove the glass cover by turning it counterclockwise, replace with a 25 W/300°C resistant bulb (G9 type), and reassemble. If unsure, call a technician.

The oven door is hot to the touch. Is this normal?

Yes, the door has a cool touch system but still gets warm during use. Keep children away and avoid touching the glass when the oven is on.

How do I use the grill function?

Place food on the grill rack in the top position. Set the function knob to the grill symbol and choose a high temperature (e.g., 200°C). Keep the door slightly ajar or follow your model's specific recommendation.

What should I do if the oven displays an error code?

Common codes: E0 = sensor failure, E1 = overheating. Reset by unplugging for 1 minute. If the code reappears, contact Arçelik service with the error code displayed.
