Automatic switch-off
Your oven has an automatic switch-off function. It is activated if
no cooking time is set and the settings have not been changed
for a long time. The point at which this occurs depends on the
temperature or grill setting that has been set.
Switch-off activated
“Automatic switch-off" appears in the display. Operation is
interrupted. Press any button to clear the text. You can make
new settings.
Note:
If a cooking time is set, the oven stops heating once the
cooking time has elapsed. The automatic switch-off function is
not necessary.
Self-cleaning
During self-cleaning, the cooking compartment is heated to
approx. 480 °C. Any food residues from roasting, grilling and
baking are burnt to ash. Self-cleaning takes approx. 2 hours,
including the heating up and cooling down times.
Notes

For safety reasons, the oven door locks automatically. You
cannot open the oven door again until the cooking
compartment has cooled slightly and the padlock symbol for
the locking mechanism disappears. Do not attempt to push in
the latch by hand.
■
If you open the appliance door again after the appliance has
started, the locking latch may be visible at the top of the
oven. This is normal. The latch disappears automatically
when you close the door. Please do not attempt to push in
the latch by hand.

Do not attempt to open the appliance door while self-cleaning
is in operation. The cleaning process may be cancelled.
