Further information
In most cases, the appliance provides notes and further
information on the action just carried out. To do this,
press the l button. The note is shown for a few
seconds.
Some notes are displayed automatically, for example as
confirmation, or to provide an instruction or warning.
Cooking compartment functions
Some functions 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 operation, the
operation is paused. 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
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.
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 oven
will overheat.
So that the cooking compartment cools down more
quickly after operation, the cooling fan continues to run
for a certain period afterwards.
Note: You can change how long the cooling fan
continues to run for in the basic settings. ~ "Basic
settings" on page 22
