While we were moving, there was a pan of cooking oil left in the oven and the movers didn't take it out, so now all the oil has spilled down to the bottom of the stove and has soaked up all the oil in the insulation underneat. Is there any way to remove this insulation and replace it with new one? I love my stove and it still all works very well but when using the oven you can really smell the oil and I'm also concerned about it catching on fire. When we looked at removing the back panel we see that it is all close up tight and not sure how to replace the insulation. Can you please see if you can help me out. Thank you in advance.

THE RANGE WILL NEED TO BE SOMEWHAT TAKEN APART TO ACCESS THE INSULATION.
NORMALLY THERE ARE SREWS THAT CAN BE REMOVED TO DO THIS. THEN THE INSULATION CAN BE REMOVED AND NEW INSTALLED. AN APPLIANCE REPAIR PERSON CAN DO THIS. - -SORRY, IT MAY BE DIFFICULT FOR ANYONE OTHER THEN A SERVICE PERSON.

Why does my oven smoke when in use

If the top lifts up to clean you should check under there. Its like a drip pan and if anything got spilled on the top and went down it could be the problem.

How to clean cast iron both pots and pans

Don't..... just rinse with hot water and dry them, the blackening is otherwise known as "seasoning" and protects it from rusting, left to soak or washing with soapy water will rust the cast iron...... if this happens you need to remove as much rust as possible by scrubbing with salt and a cut (half) potato, then wiping with vegetable oil and "seasoning" in a hot oven (do this a few times, the oil will evaporate and bake-on a protective film) think of the edges of your favourite roasting pan....... well used/cared for cast iron will almost certainly look totally black.

How to change the lower element on a delonghi AD 699 toaster oven?

Hello,

  • Preheat ovens only when necessary. With conventional ovens, keep the preheating time to a minimum. Unless you're baking breads or pastries, you may not need to preheat the oven at all.
  • Food cooks more quickly and efficiently in ovens when air can circulate freely. Don't lay foils on racks. If possible, stagger pans on upper and lower racks to improve air flow.
  • Use glass or ceramic pans in ovens. You can turn down the temperature about 25°F and cook foods just as quickly.
  • Do not open the oven door often to preview the food. Each time you open the door the oven temperature drops by 25°F. Watch the clock or use a timer instead.
  • Full-size ovens are not very efficient for cooking small- to medium-sized meals, it generally pays to use toaster ovens or microwave ovens.
  • Check to be sure the oven door gasket is tight. Adjust or replace gaskets as required.
  • If you have a self-cleaning oven, consider using the self-cleaning feature immediately after regular baking when the oven is still hot. Less energy will be required to reach the cleaning temperature. Try not to use the self-cleaning feature too often.
  • Keep range-top burners and reflectors clean; they will reflect the heat better and save energy.
  • Match the size of the pan to the heating element; more heat will get to the pan and less will be lost to the surrounding air. A 6-inch pan on a 8-inch burner will waste over 40% of the energy.
  • On electric stove-tops, use only flat-bottomed pans that make full contact with the element. A warped or rounded pan will waste most of the heat.
  • When cooking with a gas range-top burner, use moderate flame settings to conserve gas. Also make sure the pilot light is burning efficiently, with a blue flame. A yellowish flame indicates an adjustment is needed because the gas is burning inefficiently.
  • Whenever possible, use a pressure cooker. By cooking food at a higher temperature and pressure, cooking time is reduced dramatically and energy use is cut by 50-75%.

  • Hope this work ..........

    Oil mystierously appears on bottom pan of oven, 465, when in use.

    Larry,

    Your stove has no parts that contain any type of oil or grease. It's possible that the prior owner accidently spilled some oil on the stove. I would continue to clean up the grease and hopefully it will all run down and after the clean up, it will disappear.

    You are welcome to contact us at:

    We hope this helps and we wish you a Happy New Year! Ella

    We have a Belling oven that we can't turn on. The numbers in the display are flashing and we can't figure out how to reset this or to turn it on. There are six buttons from left to right, one labelled...

    We solved this by pushing both the "start cooking" and "stop cooking" buttons at the same time (these are the ones showing a pan with steam coming out of it and a pan that says stop above it). While holding these down we used the plus and minus buttons to set the time. After doing this we were able to turn the oven on.
