If the flames are coming on when setting the temperature to less then 250 then you have a problem with the thermostat or the button that setting the temperature.

SOURCE: I need to calibrate an electric oven

Probably. There is often a key sequence that will enable a calibration mode. We need the full model number to find the tech info, or you can probably find it in the tech sheet which is normally taped on behind the control panel.

SOURCE: Oven runs much hotter than set temperature.

Sounds like you need a new oven thermostat or get an oven thermometer and by experimentation draw up a new heating range for the oven dial.

Temp change during cooking zanussi ZOP37922

Both gas and electric ovens will cycle on and off throughout the cooking cycle to maintain the set temperature. When the oven temperature has dropped below the set temperature, the oven cycles on again to provide heat and will cycle off again once the temperature is higher than the set temperature.

Riello 40 gasG900 burner that will ignite but when oven reaches temperature it turns off completely. After temp drops by 4 degrees it turns back on and reheats back to temp then turns off.Why is this?

that would be normal. if it didnt shut off, it would go above the set temperature. the heat is either off or on. it cant me in the middle. it turns 'off' so that the temperature doesnt go too far above 250. when it senses the temperature falling too low below 250, it heats it up again.

My Kitchenaid Oven doesn't allow me to set a temperature higher that 350 degrees. Electric oven. For example, i will punch in 425 and the panel will default back the temperature to 350.

350 will be the design max for your oven unless the handbook says for your model is higher rated and is faulty
repair or replace with a higher rated temp oven

Oven overheats. It doesn't matter to the temperature you set it. The oven temperature goes higher.

The first thing to look for is the temperature probe inside the oven. If it is bent and touching the side of the oven, the oven wall will cool the probe, and the oven will always be to hot.

Then next answers depend on the vintage of the oven.
If the oven always runs 20? hot (for example) it is possible to adjust the set point on older ovens by removing the oven temperature setting knob and by using a long thin screw driver through the centre of the shaft to adjust the oven temperature to match the oven setting. You will need to buy or borrow an oven thermometer.

Ariston gas oven, why flames automatically dies down when reached desired temperature, is this normal?

If the flames didn't die down, the temperature would climb above the desired temperature and the food would get burned.

Works as designed.

How close should the temp control hold the temp

Generally the oven temperature will fluctuate as much as 30 degrees above or below the set temperature. The longer the oven is on, the less the temperature fluctuates. If you measure the highest and lowest temperatures readings with a thermometer after the oven has been preheated at least 20 minutes, you should come up with an average temperature somewhere within about 10 degrees of the set temperature. You can calibrate most ovens up to 35 degrees higher or lower if it is off. Any more than that requires replacing parts.

My oven had flames burning up from the bottom during the self cleaning cycle. I managed to turn it off but it won't unlock. How do I unlock the door if I see flames? They stopped.

The oven wont unlock until the inside is at a certain temperature, to prevent you from burning yourself with the convective heat, or worse, the fire spreading to outside the oven. Once the flame runs out of oxygen inside, the flames will go out. But the oven may not unlock for a few hours at the most.
