Getting to know your appliance
12
Temperature
Use the temperature selector to set the temperature in
the cooking compartment. You can also use it to select
the settings for other functions.
For temperature settings above 250 °C, the appliance
reduces the temperature to approx. 240 °C after
approx. 10 minutes. If your appliance has the top/
bottom heating or bottom heating types, this reduction
does not take place.
--------
Temperature display
When the appliance is heating, the
p
symbol will be lit
on the display. It goes out during pauses in the heating.
When you are preheating the appliance, the optimal
time to place your food in the cooking compartment is
when the symbol first goes out.
Note:
Due to thermal inertia, the temperature displayed
may be slightly different to the actual temperature inside
the oven.
Hotplate controls
You can use the four hotplate controls to control the
heat output provided by each hotplate.
When you switch on a hotplate, the indicator lamp lights
up.
Cooking compartment
Various functions in the cooking compartment make
your appliance easier to use. For example, the cooking
compartment is well lit and a cooling fan prevents the
appliance from overheating.
Opening the appliance door
If you open the appliance door when the appliance is in
operation, the appliance will continue to operate as
before.
Interior lighting
With most heating functions and other functions, the
interior lighting in the cooking compartment will remain
lit while the oven is in operation. When the function
selector is turned to bring operation to an end, the
lighting will go out.
Cooling fan
The cooling fan switches on and off as required. The
hot air escapes above the door.
Caution!
Do not cover the ventilation slots. Otherwise, the
appliance may overheat.
So that the cooking compartment cools down more
quickly after operation, the cooling fan continues to run
for a certain period afterwards.
