Possible Causes

Empty or incorrectly seated water tank, Blocked steam inlet, Failed steam generator heater, Faulty water level sensor

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Disconnect power and allow the oven to cool. Steam systems can cause burns.

  • Check water tank: Ensure the water reservoir is filled and correctly inserted. Clean any scale or debris from the tank contacts.
  • Descale system: Run a descaling program if available, using a manufacturer-approved descaler. Follow Balay instructions carefully.
  • Inspect steam inlet: Check the steam outlet and inlet channels for blockages. Clean gently with a soft brush.
  • Heater and sensor: Access the steam generator (usually behind or below the cavity). Test the heater for continuity and the level sensor for proper operation. Replace faulty components.
  • Professional service: Because of scalding risk and complex routing, Balay recommends a technician for steam system repairs.
