Bertazzoni oven/range control knobs are getting too hot
The control knobs on a Bertazzoni oven/range can get too hot for a few reasons. The most common reason is that the oven door is being left open during cooking. When the oven door is open, heat from the oven is able to circulate around the control knobs, causing them to heat up.
To prevent this, it is important to keep the oven door shut when the oven is in use. The oven door should only be opened to check on the food or to add ingredients.
Another possible reason for control knobs getting too hot is that the oven is being used at a high temperature for a long period of time. In this case, the heat from the oven can cause the control knobs to overheat.
To prevent this, it is important to use the oven at a lower temperature for shorter periods of time. You can also try using the convection mode, which will help to distribute the heat more evenly throughout the oven.
If you have tried the above suggestions and the control knobs are still getting too hot, it is possible that there is a problem with the control knobs themselves. In this case, you should contact a qualified technician for repair.
Here are some additional tips to help prevent control knobs from getting too hot:
- Use oven mitts or potholders when touching the control knobs.
- Place a hot pad or oven mitt under the control knobs to help insulate them from the heat.
- Avoid using the oven for prolonged periods of time at high temperatures.
Troubleshooting steps:
- Check the oven door. Make sure that the oven door is closed tightly when the oven is in use.
- Check the oven temperature. If you are using the oven at a high temperature for a long period of time, try using a lower temperature or the convection mode.
- Check the control knobs. If the control knobs are still getting too hot after you have tried the above suggestions, contact a qualified technician for repair.
