ure

Control ring

You can use the rotary selector to change the setting
values shown on the display.
For values, e.g. temperature, you have to turn the con-
trol ring back the other way when you reach the min-
imum or maximum value.

Display

The display shows the current setting values at different
levels.

Value in the
foreground

The value in the foreground is high-
lighted in white. You can use the control
ring to change the value directly.

Value in the
background

Values in the background are displayed
in grey. To change the value using the
control ring, first select the required
function.

Magnified
value

While you are using the control ring to
change a value, this value will appear
magnified.

Display ring

There is a display ring around the outside of the dis-
play.

¡

Position indicator
If you are changing a value, the display ring shows
you where you are in the selection list. Depending
on the settings range and the length of the selection
list, the display ring may be either a continuous or a
segmented line.

¡

Progress indicator
During operation, the display ring displays the pro-
gress and the red line increases in length every
second.
If the cooking time is set to count down, one seg-
ment of the display ring disappears every second.

Temperature indicator

The heat-up line indicates the temperature in the cook-
ing compartment.

¡

Heat-up line
Once operation has started, the white line below the
temperature turns red as the cooking compartment
heats up. When you are preheating the appliance,
the optimal time to place your food in the cooking
compartment is as soon as the entire line has
turned red.

¡

Residual heat indicator
When the appliance is switched off, the display ring
shows the residual heat in the cooking compart-
ment. As the residual heat dissipates, the display
ring gets darker before eventually disappearing
completely.

Note: 

Due to thermal inertia, the temperature displayed

may differ slightly from the actual temperature inside
the cooking compartment.

Here you can find an overview of the types of heating. You can find recommendations on using the types of heating.
