How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug and cool before accessing the sensor.
- Verify with thermometer: Use an oven thermometer placed in the basket to compare actual temperature with the set value.
- Inspect sensor mounting: Locate the NTC sensor near the heater. Ensure it is firmly attached to its bracket and positioned correctly in the airflow.
- Replace sensor: If readings are consistently off by a large margin, replace the NTC temperature sensor probe with a compatible Severin part.
- Adjust usage: Until repaired, compensate by adjusting set temperatures or cooking times based on your thermometer readings.
Warning: Do not bend the sensor excessively; it can crack internally.
