Electric Cooker & Oven Information

The heating element which produces the heat to maintain a cooking temperature in an oven is installed in the rear of a oven box in a circular form around the oven fan blade which distributes the hot air round the oven to produce an even cooking temperature over the whole of the oven with cooking times being reduced in a fan oven

The oven fan motor should turn all the while the oven is turned on, failure of the oven fan to turn at full speed will result in poor cooking results and can cause the element to fail

Power to the oven elements is controlled either mechanically by turning a temperture dial or thermostat contol or electronically by a timer control panel

When an oven fails to come on you should always first check the auto clock to ensure this is
set correctly, needs to be on a manual setting for the oven to come on

Oven fan elements have a fairly high rate of failure and will often cause the electrical supply to trip or to blow a fuse, failure is also sometimes accompanied by a covering of white powder substance over the oven caused by a split in the metal covering of the element

Most elements are fitted from inside the oven compartment and can be reached by removing the covering plate from back of the compartment, however some elements are retained to the rear of the oven by threaded studs from the element bracket and retained by nuts which means the element is only removable by access to the rear of the oven box. In the case of a built-in oven this will mean the removal on the the oven from the oven housing

Changing an element or fan motor should only be undertaken by a qualified or competent person with the electric supply disconnected
