How do i release stuck setting knob on 55 auto leisure gas cooker?

Just set the time - the cooker doesn't care what time you set - it has no idea what the time is.

Switch off the electricity - switch it on again so that the clock flashes then...

Push in and hold buttons 2&3 from the left and use the Plus button to set the time - any time will do. Then cook...

Good Luck...

From online photos f that cooker, the timer looks like a normal 5-button timer. The buttons should pull out - maybe with a bit of a twist. Be careful to pull dead straight and not to tip the head.

ONce the button is out, clean off the congealed cooking crud from the shaft - i have often used a bit of kitchen towel sprayed with WD40 fo rthe shaft and WD40 on a cotton bud or a cocktail stick to clear out the hole (Be careful you just clean - don't push stuff in).

Go slowly and carefully
