The lights do not come on when I open the oven door.	The oven light bulb(s) have blown. The door is not correctly fitted. The oven is in Sabbath setting and the ‘Light off’ option has been saved.	Replace the light bulb(s). See ‘Care and cleaning’ for instructions. See ‘Care and cleaning’ for instructions on fitting the door correctly. To quit Sabbath setting, press and hold the cancel button.

A glass pane in the oven door has cracked, chipped, or shattered.	Incorrect cleaning or the edge of the glass hitting against something.	You must NOT use the oven. Call your Authorised Repairer or Customer Care.
I can feel hot air blowing out of the vents after I have turned the oven off.	This is normal.	For safety reasons the cooling fans will continue to run even when you have turned the function dial to ‘Off’. The fans will switch off automatically when the oven has cooled.
The oven fan comes on when I select a function that does not use a fan (eg bake or classic bake)	This is normal. The fan comes on while the oven is preheating. It may turn off when the oven has reached the set temperature.	Wait until a long tone sounds and the temperature dial halo turns white: the oven will then be ready to use.
The oven has reached the set temperature but the temperature dial halo is still red (indicating that the oven is not ready to use).	This is normal: when heating up from cold, your oven is designed to initially heat to a temperature somewhat higher than what you have set. This is to provide optimal baking conditions right from the start.	Wait until a long tone sounds and the temperature dial halo turns white: the oven will then be ready to use.
The oven is heating but the display is dark.	The oven is set to ‘Display off’ option. The oven is in Sabbath setting.

The oven sounds a tone when I try to turn the temperature dial OFF or below a certain temperature.	This is normal: for food safety reasons, the oven functions have factory-set minimum temperature settings.	The temperature dial itself cannot be ‘turned off’. Selecting Off with the function dial will turn the oven off.
The temperature dial halo never turns white when I use Grill .	This is normal: the halo stays red to indicate that the grill element provides instant radiant heat.
The displays work, and the function and temperature dials halos come on but the oven does not heat up.	The oven is in ‘Demo’ mode.	Call Customer Care.
The display shows DOOR	The door is open during cooking (some functions only).	Ensure the door is shut fully.

The display shows 0:00 but the oven door will not open.	The oven door is locked because the oven is still too hot to be used for cooking.	Wait until the Self Clean cycle has finished. If you cancelled a Self Clean cycle which was already underway, the oven still needs to cool down before it can be used. The oven door will automatically unlock.
At a point during a Self Clean cycle, the function dial halo goes out and the temperature indicator starts displaying cascading bars .	This is normal: the oven is in the last phase of the Self Clean cycle, cooling down.	Wait until the Self Clean cycle has finished.
