Hi Guys

On my visit to the daughter's flat in Edinburgh she was
complaining that the control job on the electric oven was getting
hot.
I think this was
when the device was set to grill mode but not sure.
The nob reached a temperature that required a cloth to operate.

Any ideas what's going on here?

Door not shutting properly - the latch might need adjusting, or the door
seal replacing.


In grill mode you are supposed to have the door open anyway.

Not on mine you don't it will switch off if you open the door.
The OP hasn't said what model it is so it may or may not be so.



Im surprised. Are you sure thats true €œgrill mode€� and not just €œtop
element in oven only€� mode?

A red hot grill element, a pan full of bacon and a closed door sounds like
a recipe for disaster.
