Clock constantly flashes `A` and cannot get top or bottom oven to come on. Have tried resetting the clock but the buttons do not appear to be functioning. The mains power `has` been off due to having a central heating boiler fitted. Unit 720 EF Heritage Trevor Rogers

If your clock is flashing 12:00 then do this:
Touch the + or - buttons whilst the display is flashing to adjust the time. The display stops flashing after 5 seconds and time is displayed.
To adjust clock time : press mode button 4 times until clock symbol is displayed. Use + or - buttons to adjust time.

Have you tried unplugging it for 5 min's?

what's the error number

Hi -

I'm assuming this is an Omega/Creda Europa oven. All you need to do to make the oven work again is set the clock. The 0:00 and "AUTO" will stop flashing and the oven will work again. You didn't specify a model number, but you should be able to set the clock as follows:

1. Hold down the two buttons on the left-hand side under the clock display. One should have a symbol of a bell and the other, a symbol of a cookpot (not a cookpot and 'STOP').
2. While still holding both of these buttons, use the + and - buttons to set the clock to the correct time. The clock needs to be set in 24 hour format.

If this doesn't work, look for the buttons under the clock with the bell symbol and the cookpot symbol. Hold both of these buttons in and use the + and - buttons to set the clock.

If this doesn't work or your clock doesn't have these buttons, let me know and I'll check for other possible methods of setting the clock on Europa ovens. If you can find the model number it would assist me greatly. This should be on a sticker on the rim of the oven and can only be seen when the oven door is open - possibly at the bottom. The model number should be something like 40-1, 60-1 or 66-1.

If you can't find the model number, please let me know how many buttons there are in total below the clock and which symbols are written above each button and the order from left to right. I will then be able to provide the correct instructions for your oven.

Hope this helps.

If you cannot change it from auto. to manual it doesn't mean you need a new oven. The electronic timer can be by-passed fairly easily by joining the active and oven load wire together..

power to the main oven has to go through the oven clock if time is not set main oven will not work also if clock set on auto time rather than manual oven will not work conversley if clock is faulty it will not work top oven is unaffected as oven clock auto timer cannot be used on top oven.try resetting power of and on again reset time on clock if clock not faulty oven will now work.

Hi,

Just to let you know that i have solved the problem with my cooker, (clock flashing after electric going off) i held down the cook period button and the end time button, then i was able to reset the clock by pressing the +button.

I went to the website:

Turn the knob to the left until a tone is heard and "time" appears in the display window. The previously set time will appear in the display window.

Continue turning the time knob in either direction until the correct time of day appears in the display window

Press the START button to begin clock operation

the clock need to be set to work the main oven
