Troubleshooting
Oven not turning on
Check that the appliance is properly plugged in and the circuit breaker or fuse is active. Ensure the main power switch for the kitchen is turned on. Verify that the child lock is not engaged.
Wi-Fi connection issues
Ensure your home Wi-Fi network is operational. Restart your router and the oven. Check if the CapleHome App is updated to the latest version. Make sure the oven is within router range.
Uneven cooking results
Ensure food is placed centrally on the cooking surface. For fan-assisted modes, avoid overcrowding the oven. Check that the correct cooking function and temperature are selected for the type of food.
Steam function not working
Verify that the water tank is correctly inserted and filled with sufficient water. Ensure the steam function is selected and the correct steam setting is applied. Check for any visible blockages in the steam outlet.

Wipe the touch screen with a clean, dry cloth to remove any moisture or residue. Ensure your hands are dry when operating the controls. Try turning the oven off at the mains for a few minutes and then back on to reset.
