Troubleshooting

The oven is not heating and the oven light is off.

No power supply to the oven.

Check that the oven is connected to the power supply and the power is turned on.
If it is and the oven still doesn’t work, there may be a power failure in your home or area.

Condensation: droplets of water in or around oven (e.g. on control panel, oven door, rubber seal framing the cavity, surrounding cabinetry).

Food has high moisture content or local climate (temperature, humidity) is contributing to condensation.

Some condensation is normal. You can wipe the droplets off with a soft cloth.

Fan noise and ventilation air are coming from the oven both during and after use.

A cooling fan in the oven runs to keep the oven door and control panel cool at all times. It may continue to run after the oven has been turned off.

This is normal and requires no action.

Oven not properly preheated.

Put the food in the oven only when the temperature indicator light has gone out.

Incorrect function, bakeware, cooking time, or shelf position.
