8. Troubleshooting
If you encounter any issues with your Empava wall oven, please refer to the following general troubleshooting tips. For complex problems, contact a qualified service technician.
- Oven not heating: Check if the gas supply is connected and turned on. Ensure the electrical ignitor is receiving power. Verify that the temperature and function knobs are correctly set.
- Uneven cooking: Ensure the oven is preheated thoroughly. Use the convection fan function for more even heat distribution. Avoid overcrowding the oven.
- Ignition issues: If the burner does not light after holding the knob for 10 seconds, release and try again. If the issue persists, there might be air in the gas line (especially during first use) or a problem with the ignitor.
- Unusual odors: A new oven may produce a slight odor during initial use. This is normal and will dissipate. If strong or persistent gas odors are detected, immediately turn off the gas supply and ventilate the area. Do not operate the oven and contact a qualified technician.
