Brandt Timer‑Only Operation Misunderstood

Timer counts down but oven does not heat (timer mode only)

Possible Causes

Using minute minder instead of cooking timer, No cooking function selected, End time set without duration, User interface confusion

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: No internal work is required; this is typically a usage issue.

  • Check mode selection: Ensure a heating function (e.g. conventional, fan, grill) is selected, not just the timer symbol.
  • Understand minute minder: The minute minder only beeps at the end and does not control heating. Use the cooking duration or manual mode for heating.
  • Reset programming: Cancel all programs (often by pressing Stop/Cancel) and set a simple manual mode with a temperature, then press Start.
  • Consult manual: Refer to the Brandt user manual for the specific model to understand the difference between timer functions.
