15. ENERGY EFFICIENCY
15.1 Energy saving
The oven contains features
which help you save energy
during everyday cooking.
Make sure that the oven door is closed
properly when the oven operates. Do not
open the door too often during cooking.
Keep the door gasket clean and make
sure it is well fixed in its position.
Use metal cookware to improve energy
saving(only when you use a non-
microwave function).
When possible, do not preheat the oven
before cooking.
Keep breaks between baking as short as
possible when you prepare a few dishes
at one time.
Cooking with fan
When possible, use the cooking
functions with fan to save energy.
Residual heat
If a programme with the Duration or End
Time selection is activated and the
cooking time is longer than 30 minutes,
the heating elements automatically turn
off earlier in some oven functions.
The fan and lamp continue to operate.
When you turn off the oven, the display
shows the residual heat. You can use
that heat to keep the food warm.
When the cooking duration is longer than
30 minutes, reduce the oven temperature
to minimum 3 - 10 minutes before the
end of cooking. The residual heat inside
the oven will continue to cook.
Use the residual heat to warm up other
dishes.
Keep food warm
Choose the lowest possible temperature
setting to use residual heat and keep a
meal warm. The residual heat indicator
or temperature appears on the display.
Cooking with the lamp off
Turn off the lamp during cooking. Turn it
on only when you need it.
