We are renting a house with a Smeg SA995XR 90 cm electric oven and want to know what all the pictures/icons near the buttons mean and how to set the time on the panel near the buttons and pictures. Because we were left with no instructions from the house owner and we have never had/used smeg before so we don't know
I can' t work out what the symbols all mean. I have moved into another house and there is no instruction manual. The oven seems very hot. For example what do I bake a cake on?
Cheers,
Pat

This tutorial will show you how to check your Smeg element and how to replace your Smeg cooker element.
Here are the 3 main faults to look for in your oven or cooker that is not heating
Your oven will not work until the clock/timer has been re-set after replacing an oven element or tripping the electrical supply. Consult your Smeg manual.
If your Oven is not getting hot or heating up it could be a faulty element, if the fan in the oven is running and the thermostat light is on, this will lead us to believe that the element has gone faulty. With grills the thermostat light should come on there should be heat, if not then this could be the grill element or the thermostat.
When you turn the oven on, the household electrical supply trips on the Rcd (this is the earth trip in the fuse board sometimes called the breaker tripping) your fan oven element has gone to earth and needs replacing.
Most of these ovens have two fans. A fan forced fan in the oven and a cavity extractor fan inside the cavity of the unit between the outer skin and the oven wall. The cavity fan blows hot cavity air out the front of the unit so it remains cool. If the orange indicator light is coming on this would normally be the oven element thermostat. Leave it on and see if it gets hot. If the light goes off when you select the function switch it means you are turning it off the oven function. Your interior oven light may be blown. Hope this helps.
350 is a good starting point. Some cakes require different temperatures. May I suggest that you read "The Cake Bible" for excellent instructions on temperature.
