The appliance automatically calculates the ideal
cooking temperature and time. The screen displays the
first estimated cooking temperature and time after
a
few minutes. During this time the appliance has already
started cooking. As long as the screen displays the
blinking bars and the temperature/time alternately,
the appliance is still calculating the cooking time, and
the appliance will automatically adjust the time during
cooking.
Note
•
To prepare a whole chicken, weigh the chicken before placing it in
the basket. Choose the weight by turning the QuickControl dial
and pressing it to confirm.
•
Do not pull out the drawer as long as the appliance is calculating
the cooking time, which is indicated by blinking bars on the
display. Otherwise the Smart Chef program will stop, and the
appliance will reset to the main menu. Proceed cooking with
the manual mode because restarting the Smart Chef program
with partially cooked food will lead to a wrong estimation of the
cooking time.
•
As soon as the calculation phase is finished you will see the
temperature and time displayed continuously (without blinking
bars), and you may open the drawer to check the status of the
food.

When you hear the bell and see the shake indication
blinking, open the drawer and turn the ingredients or
shake the basket with the ingredients. Then slide the
basket back into the appliance.

When you hear the bell and the timer has elapsed to 0, the
food is ready.
Note
•
If your food is underdone or the food does not reach your prefered
browning level, proceed cooking for several more minutes by
pressing the timer button (see steps 11–12 in chapter “Using the
appliance”).
