Automatic timer How do i work the timer to turn the oven on

It is the automatic oven timer and not the kitchen counter timer ...?

The handbook says:-
To cancel the automatic setting and return the oven to manual operation, press the cook time and ready time buttons simultaneously. These are the second and third buttons from the left. If you have done that and it is not working, try turning the complete oven off for awhile - say 30 mins and turning back on. If this still doesn't work then it may be that the timer/clock has gone faulty.

Hi- check the timer on the oven - a lot of these will require a push/pull out or turn dials over to get the right symbol for it to work - not knowing the brand - but in general standard ranges have these features with the timers.

Cheers

This sounds as if the electronic clock timer is in automatic mode. It must be in manual mode for the oven to work. Turn the oven on and play around with the timer controls/buttons. When the oven indicator light comes on the clock is in manual mode.

Light and grill work. I assume that the oven indicator wont light when you turn the oven on. If so the timer is probably in automatic mode. Set the timer to manual mode and the oven should work. If the indicator light is coming on at the moment the oven element is probably faulty.

Sounds like the flashing 'a' means the timer is in automatic mode. I trust that when you turn the bottom oven to on the oven indicator light does not come on. Turn the bottom oven to ON. Then
have a fiddle with the timer. You have to get it to manuel mode. When it goes on to manuel mode the oven indicator light will come on and the oven will then work.

What happens when you turn the power off to the whole oven, leave it off for a few mins and then reapply? If the automatic is still set it could be the clock is faulty.
Have you tried resetting the clock as per the handbook?

From the New World Web site: "How do I set my timer/programmer into manual when it is set in auto? (5 & 6 button versions) On your timer there are two buttons, which read "cook time" and "ready time". If your timer is in automatic, you can return it to manual by pressing these two buttons simultaneously. REMEMBER - if your oven is in automatic it will not work until the time you set it to come on or if you return it to manual."
