Getting to know your appliance

In this chapter, we will explain the indicators and controls. You will also find out about the various functions of your appliance.

Note: Depending on the appliance model, individual details and colours may differ.

Control panel

In the control panel, you can use the various buttons, touch fields and the rotary selector to set the different appliance functions. The current settings are shown on the display.

The overview shows the control panel when the appliance is switched on with a selected heating type.

1. Buttons

The buttons on the left- and right-hand side of the control panel have a pressure point. Press these buttons to activate them.

For appliances that do not have a stainless steel front, these two button touch fields do not have a pressure point.

2. Touch fields

There are sensors under the touch fields. Simply touch the respective symbol to select the function.

3. Rotary selector

The rotary selector is fitted so that you can turn it indefinitely to the left or right. Press it lightly and move it in the direction required using your finger.

4. Display

You can see the current adjustment values, options or notes in the display.

Controls

The individual controls are adapted for the various functions of your appliance. You can set your appliance simply and directly.

Buttons and touch fields

Here you can find a short explanation of the various buttons and touch fields.

The touch field, which has a value on the display that can be changed or displayed in the foreground, lights up red.

Rotary selector

You can use the rotary selector to change the adjustment values shown on the display.

In most selection lists, such as the temperature, you have to turn the rotary selector back the other way if you reach the minimum or maximum value. However, for the heating types for example, the first selection follows the last.

Display

The display is structured so that the information can be read at a glance in any situation.

The value that you can currently set is in focus. It is displayed in white lettering and underlined in white. The value in the background is displayed in grey

Focus

The value in focus can be changed directly without first being selected.

After starting an operation, either the temperature or the level is always in focus. At the same time, the white line is the heating line and gradually turns red.

EnlargementAs you change the value in focus using the rotary selector, only this value is displayed larger.

Display ring

The display ring can be found around the outside of the display.

If you change a value, the display ring shows you where you are in the selection list. Depending on the settings area and length of the selection list, the display ring may be continuous or divided into segments.

During operation, the display ring turns red at second-long intervals. After every full minute, the segments turn red again from the beginning. As the cooking time counts down, one segment disappears every second.

Temperature display

After the operation has started, the current cooking compartment temperature is displayed graphically on the display

Heating line

The white line under the temperature turns red from left to right as the cooking compartment heats up. When you are preheating the appliance, the optimal time to place the food in the cooking compartment is when the line has completely turned red.

For set levels, e.g. the grill setting, the heating line turns red immediately.

Residual heat indicatorWhen the appliance is switched off, the display ring shows the residual heat in the cooking compartment. As the residual heat cools down, the display ring becomes darker and disappears completely at some point.

Note: Due to thermal inertia, the temperature displayed may be slightly different to the actual temperature inside the oven.

Operating modes

Your appliance has various operating modes which make your appliance easier to use.

You can find more precise descriptions of these in the corresponding sections.

Operating modeUse
Heating types "Operating the appliance" on page 14There are various finely tuned heating types for the optimal preparation of your food.
AutoCook "Dishes" on page 28There are preprogrammed setting values which are suitable for many dishes
EcoClean "Cleaning function" on page 22The cleaning function cleans the cooking compartment almost by itself.

Types of heating

To enable you to find the correct type of heating for your dish, we have explained the differences and scopes of application here.

The symbols for each type of heating help you to remember them.

When cooking at very high temperatures, the appliance lowers the temperature slightly after an extended period.

Default values

For each heating type, the appliance specifies a default temperature or level. You can accept this value or change it in the appropriate area.

Further information

In most cases, the appliance provides notes and further information on the action just carried out.

Touch the field. The note is shown in the display for a few seconds. Use the rotary selector to scroll to the end of longer notes.

Some notes are displayed automatically, for example as confirmation, or to provide an instruction or warning.

Cooking compartment functions

The functions in the cooking compartment make your appliance easier to use. This, for example, enables the cooking compartment to be well lit and a cooling fan to prevent the appliance from overheating.

Opening the appliance door

If you open the appliance door during an on-going operation, the operation is paused. The operation continues to run when you close the door.

Interior lighting

When you open the appliance door, the interior lighting switches on. If the door remains open for longer than around 15 minutes, the lighting switches off again.

For most operating modes, the interior lighting switches on as soon as the operation is started. When the operation has finished, the lighting switches off.

Note: You can set the interior lighting not to come on during the operation in the basic settings. "Basic settings" on page 19

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 the operation, the cooling fan continues to run for a certain period afterwards.

Note: You can change how long the cooling fan continues to run in the basic settings. "Basic settings" on page 19

Notes

  • Slight differences in colour on the front of the appliance are caused by the use of different materials, such as glass, plastic and metal.
  • Shadows on the door panels, which look like streaks, are caused by reflections made by the interior lighting.
  • Enamel is baked on at very high temperatures. This can cause some slight colour variation. This is normal and does not affect operation.

The edges of thin trays cannot be completely enamelled. As a result, these edges can be rough.

This does not impair the anti-corrosion protection.

Keeping the appliance clean

Always keep the appliance clean and remove dirt immediately so that stubborn deposits of dirt do not build up.

Warning – Risk of fire!

Loose food remnants, fat and meat juices may catch fire. Before using the appliance, remove the worst of the food remnants from the cooking compartment, heating elements and accessories.

Tips

  • Clean the cooking compartment after each use. This will ensure that dirt cannot be baked on.
  • Always remove flecks of limescale, grease, starch and albumin (e.g. egg white) immediately.
  • Use the universal pan for baking very moist cakes.
  • Use suitable ovenware for roasting, e.g. a roasting dish.

Cleaning function

Use the "Pyrolytic self-cleaning" function to clean the cooking compartment.

You can choose from three cleaning settings.

SettingCleaning levelDuration
1LightApprox. 1 hour, 15 minutes
2MediumApprox. 1 hour, 30 minutes
3IntensiveApprox. 2 hours

The dirtier the cooking compartment and the longer the dirt has been there, the higher the cleaning setting should be. It is sufficient to clean the cooking compartment every two to three months. If required, you can clean the oven more frequently. A cleaning cycle requires only approx. 2.5 – 4.7 kilowatt hours.

Notes

  • For safety reasons, the appliance door locks automatically once a certain temperature is reached. It cannot be reopened until the n symbol for the locking mechanism on the display goes out.
  • The interior lighting does not come on during the cleaning function.

  • The cooking compartment becomes extremely hot during the cleaning function. Never open the appliance door. Allow the appliance to cool down. Keep children away from the appliance. Risk of burns!
  • The appliance will become very hot on the outside during the cleaning function. Never touch the appliance door. Allow the appliance to cool down. Keep children away from the appliance.

Warning Risk of harm to health!

The cleaning function heats up the cooking compartment to a very high temperature so that food remnants left over from roasting, grilling and baking will burn off.This process releases vapours, which can irritate the mucous membranes. While the cleaning function is running, keep the kitchen well ventilated. Do not remain in the room for long periods. Keep children and pets away. Follow the instructions even when using the Delayed start function with a delayed end time.

Prior to initiating the cleaning function

While cleaning is in progress, you can clean an accessory at the same time, e.g. the universal pan or the baking tray. Before cleaning is started, remove the worst dirt. Slide the accessory in at level 2.

Clean the inside of the appliance door and along the surface edges of the cooking compartment in the area around the seal. Do not scrub the seal and do not remove!

Note: When using the cleaning function, you can clean the enamel accessory provided at the same time. You cannot clean any of the wire racks when using the

cleaning function. The wire racks are not suitable for cleaning using the cleaning function; this will discolour them. Further accessories suitable for cleaning using the cleaning function are listed in the table for special accessories. "Accessories" on page 12

Warning Risk of fire!

  • Loose food residues, grease and meat juices may catch fire during the cleaning function. Before starting the cleaning function, remove coarse dirt from the cooking compartment and from the accessories. Risk of fire!
  • The appliance will become very hot on the outside during the cleaning function. Never hang combustible objects, e.g. tea towels, on the door handle. Do not place anything against the front of the appliance. Keep children away from the appliance. Risk of fire!
  • If the door seal is damaged, a large amount of heat will be generated around the door. Do not scrub or remove the seal. Never operate the appliance if the seal is damaged or missing.

Warning – Risk of serious damage to health!

The appliance will become very hot during the cleaning function. The non-stick coating on baking trays and tins is destroyed and noxious gases are released. Never clean non-stick baking trays and baking tins using the cleaning function. Only clean enamelled accessories using the cleaning function.

Once the cleaning function has ended

Once the cooking compartment has cooled down, use a damp cloth to wipe off the ash that has been left behind in the cooking compartment, in the accessories on the racks and around the appliance door.

Wipe the pull-out rails with a damp cloth. Then slide the pull-out rails in and out several times. After cleaning, some discolouration may remain on the pull-out rails. This has no effect on performance.

Note: Very bad soiling may cause white deposits to remain on the enamel surfaces. This is residue from the food and is harmless. It does not affect performance. You can remove these residues using lemon juice if required.
