Advice
Check there is a spark when the
G
ignition button is depressed. If
there is no spark, check the
electricity supply is switched on at
the socket.
Check that the gas supply is
G
switched on.
Try another appliance in the
G
socket, if that works replace the 3
amp fuse in the cooker plug.
Condensation is caused by hot,
moist air meeting a cooler surface
(i.e. the oven door). You cannot
always prevent it, but you can
minimise it when it happens by
doing the following:
Pre-heat the oven at a high
G
temperature before putting food in
the oven, and cover the food you
are cooking wherever possible.
Whenever you can, cook wet
G
foods at higher temperatures.
Don't leave food in the oven to
G
cool down.
Automatic cooking will normally
produce condensation when the
oven is cooling down with food
inside.
Switch off the electricity supply.
G
When the power returns - re-set
G
the programmer/Clock to the
correct time of day.
This will allow you to use your
appliance.
