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 highlighted. It is displayed in white lettering and underlined in white. The value in the background is displayed in grey text.
Highlighted information
The highlighted value can be changed immediately without first being selected. After starting an operation, either the temperature or level remains highlighted. The white line also serves as the heating line and gradually turns red.
Note: When using the Microwave operating mode, the cooking time is highlighted. The heating line does not appear.
Enlargement
As long as you use the rotary selector to change the highlighted value, only this value will be 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 secondlong 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 indicator
When 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 mode | Use |
Heating types | There are various finely tuned heating types for the optimal preparation of your food. |
AutoCook | There are preprogrammed setting values which are suitable for many dishes. |
Microwave | You can use the microwave to cook, heat up or defrost your dishes more quickly |
MicroCombi | You can use the microwave combination function to switch on the microwave and a type of heating. |
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.
Heating type | Temperature | Use | |
---|---|---|---|
4D hot air | 30-275 °C | For baking and roasting on one or more levels. The fan distributes heat from the ring heating element in the back panel evenly around the cooking compartment. | |
Hot air eco | 30-275 °C | For gently cooking selected types of food on one level without preheating. The fan distributes the heat from the ring-shaped heating element in the back panel around the cooking compartment. This heating function is most effective between 125 and 275 °C. This heating function is used to measure both the energy consumption in air recirculation mode and the energy efficiency class. | |
Hot air grilling | 30-300 °C | For roasting poultry, whole fish and larger pieces of meat. The grill element and the fan switch on and off alternately. The fan circulates the hot air around the food. | |
Grill, large area | Grill settings: 1 = low 2 = medium 3 = high | For grilling flat items for grilling, such as steaks and sausages, for making toast, and for cooking au gratin. The whole area below the grill element becomes hot. | |
Grill, small area | Grill settings: 1 = low 2 = medium 3 = high | For grilling small amounts of steaks or sausages, for making toast, and for cooking au gratin. The centre area under the grill heating element becomes hot. | |
Preheating ovenware | 30-70 °C | For preheating ovenware. | |
Dry | 150 °C | Dry the cooking compartment after using the microwave to ensure that no moisture remains. |
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.
Microwave
To ensure that you always use the correct microwave power setting, we have provided a general overview of what the different power settings can be used for below.
The microwave power settings do not always correspond to the exact wattage that the appliance uses.
Microwave power setting | Maximum cooking time | Use |
90 watts | 1 hour 30 mins | For defrosting delicate foods. |
180 watts | 1 hour 30 mins | For defrosting and continued cooking. |
360 watts | 1 hour 30 mins | For cooking meat and for heating delicate foods |
600 watts | 1 hour 30 mins | For heating and cooking food. |
Max. watts | 30 minutes | For heating liquids. |
MicroCombi
Various types of heating can be combined with the Microwave operating mode. The appliance heats up and the microwave is switched on at the same time. As a result, the food is ready in a much shorter time.

Microwave
Cookware
Not all cookware is suitable for microwaves. To ensure that your food is heated and the appliance is not damaged, only use cookware that is suitable for microwaves.
Heat-resistant cookware made of glass, glass ceramic, porcelain or heat-resistant plastic is suitable. These materials allow microwaves to pass through.
You can also use ceramic if it has been fully glazed and has no cracks. You can also use serving dishes. This saves you having to transfer food from one dish to another. You should only use cookware with decorative gold or silver trim if the manufacturer guarantees that they are suitable for use in microwaves.
To bake in combined operation, you can use ordinary metal baking tins. This means that the cake is also browned from below. Metal dishes are not suitable for other applications.
Metal does not allow microwaves to pass through. Food in covered metal containers will remain cold.
Caution! Creation of sparks: Metal (e.g. a spoon in a glass) must be kept at least 2 cm from the cooking compartment walls and the inside of the door. Sparks may irreparably damage the glass on the inside of the door.
Cookware test
Never switch on the microwave unless there is food inside. The short cookware test is the only exception to this rule.
Perform the following test if you are unsure whether your cookware is suitable for use in the microwave.
- Heat the empty cookware at maximum power for ½ to 1 minute.
- Check the temperature of the cookware during this time.
The cookware should remain cold or warm to the touch.
The cookware is unsuitable if it becomes hot or sparks are generated. In this case, stop the test.
