Step 1 - Safety Advice (Turn Off Your Cooker)

Switching The Cooker Power Supply Off From The Socket

Safety First! Please make sure that you have switched your appliance off at the mains before starting your repair.

Step 2 - Pull Control Knob Off & Fit New Control Knob

On most cookers simply pull the old knob away from your control panel (you can use a blunt object to help you lever it off if it is refusing to budge).

Simply get your new control knob, make sure it is locating on the flat of the control shaft and then push it on.
