Setting on knob of diplomat oven

Product Manuals Hygena Diplomat Select Ovens pages 1 8

Hello -

Please double check for the model number. It will probably be on a small metal plaque on an edge of the oven door, along the outer edge of the oven opening, or in the oven interior. It could also be on the top of the oven and covered by cabinetry.

Undo the screws that hold the oven in and slide it out 6 inches. You may then find the metal plaque on the top of the oven. You may need the help of another person when you try to pull the oven out, so that the oven does not tilt forward and fall to the floor.

You MAY be able to identify your model of Diplomat oven from one of the images of Diplomat oven control panels here:

You may find the image of Diplomat oven knob markings here helpful:

Scroll down that page to the post dated 14-12-14 from pslewis333 to see the image.

Once you know which model of Diplomat oven you have, you may be able to find and purchase decals with the proper knob markings for your oven so that you can affix the decals around your oven knobs. Or, you could use heat resistant paint and a small, pointed paint brush to paint the markings on your oven. With either option, I suggest you seal the markings with a heat resistant clear sealant so that cleaning / scrubbing will not erase the markings.

Best wishes.

Hello -

Apparently, the Diplomat brand of ovens ended production in 2008.

Prior to the end of production, Diplomat was part of the MFI company, with the company's Hygena brand name combined with Diplomat.

I have not yet found a user manual for Diplomat Elite Double oven online.

However, I have found a Hygena Diplomat manual online (free) and the manual has instructions for the clock. The instructions MAY be the same for your oven (I hope.)

See:
https://productmanuals.inbro.net/seeinsidebrochure/Product-Manuals_Hygena-Diplomat-Select-Ovens/Hygena-Diplomat-Select-Ovens/page_1

The clock instructions are on Page 10: Using Your Electronic Minute Minder.

Best wishes.

I'd suggest contacting UK Whitegoods. They still carry spares for the Diplomat line, they may have manuals available for download.

Otherwise, manuals.com

IS IT GAS OR ELECTRIC? GAS YOU MAY HAVE CLOGED LINES ELECTRIC YOU MAY HAVE A HEAT ELEMENT THAT HAS GONE OUT AND NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. TRY TO FIND A MANUAL ON LINE TYPE IN BRAND NAME ALONG WITH MODLE NUMBER TO SEE IF YOU CAN FIND A MANUAL.

Have the same diplomat the numbers have come off to . I have mine on twenty to if you was looking at a clock and it's about 180 . Half past is 160 . Right to top 220 .

My ovens not working and don't know what picture to put it on

Hi,

I have a manual for AHY3420, it's a very generic manual which covers different ovens. I am happy to send you a scanned copy if you send me an e-mail address.

I have the same oven and all the symbols have disappeared on the third dial (the one which switches on the oven), so I still haven't worked out which setting does what - I can just about make out a grill symbol, but that's about it. Is there any chance you could tell me what the symbols are on the 3rd dial?

Thanks very much.

User manuals are hard to find.
The problem I had was setting the clock on a single Diplomat oven, with no clock button. Here's my solution :

DIPLOMAT OVEN OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
The Diplomat single oven is controlled by two knobs and a set of buttons along the middle of the control panel.
The left knob sets the temperature of the oven, while the right knob selects the function to be performed, e.g. fan oven, grill, etc.
The buttons along the middle set the cooker clock, the start and end times of cooking, and the “+” and “-“ buttons will increase or decrease the time shown on the cooker’s clock.
PLEASE NOTE THAT THE OVEN WILL NOT OPERATE UNTIL THE CLOCK IS SET.
If there is any interruption to the power supply (including manually switching off at the main switch) the oven will not operate until the clock is reset.
Here’s how to set the clock:
First press simultaneously the first two buttons to the left of the control panel. They are marked as a Bell symbol (Alarm) , and a steaming Cooking Pot (Start of Cooking Time). Then immediately press the plus “+” or minus “-“ buttons to increase or decrease the time displayed. When the desired time has been reached, leave it for a few seconds, and it will remain set at this time. Any further changes to the displayed time will require this procedure to be repeated.
Hope this helps!
