The oven
External cooling fans
The outdoor cooling fan cools down the
fumes and vapour that exit the oven through
the extraction hood and prevents nearby fur-
niture from becoming too hot. The air outlet
is through the extractor fan (15) between the
control panel and the oven door.

Special defrosting information
WARNING
Health hazard!
Defrosting meat, poultry or fi sh in the
oven can cause dangerous microorgan-
isms (such as salmonella) to multiply
rapidly, thereby This increases the risk
of food poisoning.
■
Do not defrost meat, poultry and fi sh
in the oven.
■
Only use the defrosting function to
defrost vegetables, pre-cooked food,
etc.
■
Take the frozen food out of the freez-
er ahead of time and let it defrost in
the refrigerator. The fl uid from the
frozen food must be able to properly
drain, otherwise harmful microorgan-
isms can form.
Defrosting merely circulates unheated air
within the cooking compartment. This accel-
erates the defrosting process. No heat is ap-
plied during defrosting.
In order to make more room in the
cooking compartment, you can remove
the baking tray guides and defrost the fro-
zen food container directly on the bottom of
the oven (see page EN-21).
