Troubleshooting - Rangemaster Kitchener 110 Electric Users Manual & Installation

Ovens
The ovens have removable panels that have been
coated with a special enamel that partly cleans itself.
This does not stop all marks on the lining, but helps
to reduce the amount of manual cleaning needed.
The Cook & Clean panels work better above
200°C. If you do most of your cooking below this
temperature, occasionally remove the panels and
wipe with a lint free cloth and hot soapy water.
The panels should then be dried and replaced and
the oven heated at 200°C for about one hour. This
will ensure the Cook & Clean panels are working
eff ectively.
Don't use steel wool (Brillo) or any other materials
that will scratch the surface. Don't use oven cleaning
pads.
Removing the Oven Linings
Some of the lining panels can be removed for
cleaning and for cleaning behind. Remove the
shelves fi rst.
The side panels of either oven can be removed.
Each side of the oven is fi xed with four fi xing screws.
You don't have to remove the screws to remove the
oven linings. Lift each side panel upwards and they
will slide off the screws. Then pull them forwards.
Once the linings are removed, the oven enamel
interior can be cleaned.

Troubleshooting

A crack has appeared in the Hob surface
Disconnect the cooker immediately from the power
supply and arrange for its repair. Don't use the cooker
until after the repair. See the Customer care leafl et for
how to contact a service person.
My Hob is scratched
Have you used the correct cleaning methods?
Pots and pans with rough bottoms, or coarse particles
(salt or sand) between the pan and the surface of the
hob may cause scratches.
Use the recommended cleaning methods. Make sure
pan bottoms are smooth and clean. Tiny scratches are
not removable but will become less visible in time as
a result of cleaning.
Metal markings on the Hob
Do not slide aluminium or copper pans across the
surface. Marks from aluminium and copper pans as
well as mineral deposits from water or food can be
removed with the cleaning cream.
Steam is coming from the oven
When cooking foods with a high water content (e.g.
oven chips) there may be some steam visible at the
rear grille. Take care when opening the oven door, as
there may be a momentary puff of steam when the
oven door is opened. Stand well back and allow any
steam to disperse.
The oven fan is noisy
The note of the oven fan may change as the oven
heats up - this is perfectly normal.
What cleaning materials are recommended for the
cooker?
See the 'Cleaning' section for recommended cleaning
materials. We do not recommend Mr. Muscle, as it
contains chemicals that may damage the surfaces of
your cooker.
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 fl oor of the compartment? Is the grill tray pushed
fully back to stop?
The knobs get hot when I use the oven or the grill,
can I avoid this?
Yes, this is caused by heat rising from the oven or the
grill, and heating them up. Don't leave the oven door
open. Make sure that the grill pan is pushed right
back to the 'back stop' when grilling.
