Problem Possible cause and remedy
The oven has switched
itself off.
The oven will switch itself off automatically to save
energy if no other action is taken within a certain time
frame after switching it on or after the end of a cooking
programme.
^
Switch the oven back on.
Cakes and biscuits are
not cooked properly
after following the times
given in the chart.
A different temperature from the one given in the recipe
was used.
^
Select the temperature required for the recipe.
The ingredient quantities are different from those given
in the recipe.
^ Double check the recipe. The addition of more liquid
or more eggs makes a moister mix which would take
longer to cook.
Browning is uneven. The wrong temperature or shelf level was selected.
There will always be a slight unevenness. If the
unevenness is pronounced, check that the correct
temperature and shelf level have been selected.
The material or colour of the baking tin is not suitable
for the oven function.
With Conventional heat V light coloured, shiny tins are
less suitable. Use matt, dark coloured tins.
The catalyser has been set at too high a level. This can
lead to an uneven browning result on more delicate
food such as sponge cakes.
Set the odour reduction catalyser to a lower level or
switch it off (see "Settings - Catalyser").
