The power supply to your oven has possibly been interrupted, but has
now come back on again. Reset the timer to the correct time of day and

book.
Check the following to ensure that the timer is in Manual Mode:

device to operate.

correct position - see grilling.

see grilling guide.

When the "Grill" control (A) is operating at less than "6", the grill will cycle
on and off, this is normal and is not a fault.

A gentle flow of air will be blown from beneath the control panel when

not a fault.
