Using this oven selector switch is easy. First, make sure your oven is turned off and unplugged. Then, install the switch in front of the thermostat as it's designed to share the same knob. Once installed, you can start using the three positions. The first position keeps both banks off, which is great when you don't need any heating. The second position turns on the front bank only, which might be useful for certain types of cooking. The third position turns on both banks, giving you full heating power. Just rotate the switch up to 270 degrees to control the thermostat. As for maintenance, keep the switch clean and free from dust and debris. If you notice any issues, like the switch not turning smoothly or the contacts not working properly, don't try to fix it yourself. Contact us or a professional appliance repair person. Also, before buying, always check the suitability with your brand and model number to make sure it's the right fit for your oven.
