Possible Causes
Partially failed heating element, Incorrect power supply (e.g. single phase instead of required two/three phase), Excessive heat loss through door seal, Temperature sensor drift
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Disconnect power before internal checks.
- Verify supply: Confirm that the oven is wired according to the installation instructions (correct phases and voltage).
- Check elements: Observe which elements heat during preheat. Replace any that do not glow or warm properly.
- Inspect door seal: Replace a worn or leaking gasket to reduce heat loss.
- Sensor check: Test the temperature sensor resistance and replace if out of specification.
Note: If wiring and components are correct but preheat remains slow, the control board may be limiting power and require service.
