What needs to be clarified
Check whether uneven heating recurs in the selected mode, comparing temperature distribution with the fan, heaters, sensor and instructions for the specific oven model.
Materials to prepare
- Oven with its supplied tray and rack
- Model instructions and installation records
- Records of mode, preheating time and dish placement
What to compare
Inspect the door seal, ventilation clearances and accessory positions. Use an agreed measurement procedure after stabilization, recording temperatures over time at several cavity locations. Compare repeated cycles with identical settings; assess control response and elements together rather than diagnosing a sensor from one domestic thermometer reading.
Possible outcome of the analysis
The deliverable may include temperature records and an opinion on a reproducible deviation or insufficient initial evidence, listing examined components and further investigations needed to clarify findings.
Limits of the conclusions
A single baking result cannot replace testing. Without instructions and access to the installed oven, mode, ventilation and installation effects on heating cannot be assessed reliably.
