-
- If the oven does not turn on: check that the oven timer is not on auto. If it is, turn it on to manual.

- If the oven door is locked and will not open: you should turn the oven off at the circuit breaker and wait five minutes followed by turning the breaker back on.
-
- If there is no heat in the oven: if your Siemens oven is not heating up, this is an indication that the fan or oven elements have failed. You should check the circuit breaker or fuse box and ensure that your oven is getting sufficient electrical power.
-
- If the electricity trips when you turn on the oven or grill: it’s a problem that relates to a breakdown in insulation that breaks down in the elements and trips the power. Check that each element has not got “Earth” leaks on them. Alternatively, this could be a fault with the wiring.

- If the grill element doesn't work: this is an indication that the grill element could be broken. It’s advisable to check the grill element itself, the oven changeover switch, the overheat thermostat and the main oven thermostat.

- If your oven fan is not working correctly: You may need to replace the fan motor.
