To perform a self-cleaning cycle, remove all racks and accessories from the oven. Close the door and select the self-cleaning mode from the control panel. The oven will lock automatically and initiate the cleaning cycle. Once completed, allow the oven to cool before wiping away any ash residue.
First, check if the oven is properly plugged in and that the circuit breaker is not tripped. Ensure that the correct cooking function and temperature are selected. If the issue persists, it might be due to a faulty heating element or thermostat, in which case professional repair may be needed.
To replace the oven light bulb, first ensure the oven is switched off and cool. Remove the protective cover over the light bulb inside the oven. Unscrew the old bulb and replace it with a new one of the same type. Reattach the protective cover before using the oven again.
Press the 'Timer' button on the control panel. Use the '+' and '-' buttons to adjust the time. Once set, the timer will begin counting down. An alarm will sound when the timer reaches zero.
For regular cleaning, wipe the enamel interior with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or scouring pads as they can damage the surface. For stubborn stains, a mixture of baking soda and water can be used to scrub gently.
While aluminum foil can be used to line baking pans to catch drips, it should not be placed on the oven floor as it can block airflow and cause uneven cooking or damage the oven.
Ensure the oven is installed correctly and on a stable surface. Never leave the oven unattended while in use and keep flammable materials away from it. Use oven mitts to handle hot dishes and ensure the oven door is closed properly while cooking.
To calibrate the oven temperature, access the settings menu on the control panel. Adjust the temperature offset as needed, based on any discrepancies noted with an oven thermometer. Refer to the user manual for detailed instructions on accessing calibration settings.
Consult the user manual for a list of error codes and their meanings. Common solutions include resetting the oven by switching it off at the mains for a few minutes. If an error persists, contact customer support for assistance.
Regular maintenance includes cleaning the interior after each use, checking the door seal to ensure it is intact, and inspecting heating elements for signs of wear. It is also advisable to have a professional inspection annually to ensure optimal performance.
