Suppose If you turn the knob from start to full and STUDY THE TRAVEL, you should be able to find the midway point , then repeat the process from midway to start, midway to full use a marker pen to mark it out ,it won't be 100% accurate but near enough, maybe then apply some stickers.

A cd pen should work but may come off when you clean it.

i would think 'bump ups'- stickers that blind people use to tell how far to turn the dial- would be ideal for this.

Hi Tina,

Usually the only way to get these back on correctly is to replace the fascia which, more often than not, isn't so cheap.

If you can give me a model number I can have a look for you though.

The decals on almost all ovens are printed onto the panel and they do come off, especially with vigorous cleaning or using unsuitable cleaners on them. I had it happen to my own Smeg one and it's near £100 for a replacement fascia which didn't exactly make my day.

I have an indesit as well and the decals are coming off. Most are on the knobs though and i still have most left, maybe something to do with not cleaning it very often! Not sure of the model but its about 10 years old.

I've got a Cannon, about 3 years old and mine are coming off too.

Our 'Stoves' oven ones are starting to go. Only about 18 mnths old.

One word or warning and, it applies to almost all appliances these days, go near them with any sort of abrasive cleaners, even the "cream" ones and you'll take these marking off very quickly indeed.
