Preheating the oven
The
Booster
function is used to quickly
preheat the oven compartment in some
operating modes.
The
Preheat
function can be used with
any oven mode and has to be switched
on separately for each cooking pro-
gram.
If you have set a cooking duration, it will
only start to count down after the heat-
ing-up phase.
The oven compartment only needs to
be preheated in a few cases.
Preheat the oven compartment when
cooking the following food:
- cakes and pastries with a short cook-
ing duration (approx. 30 minutes or
less) as well as delicate items (e.g.,
sponge) with the
Surround
operating
mode (without the
Booster
function)

If you set a temperature above 210°F
(100°C) and the
Booster
function is
turned on, a rapid preheating phase
heats the oven compartment to the set
temperature. The browning/broiling ele-
ment and the ring heating element
come on together with the hot air
blower.
Delicate items (e.g., sponge or cook-
ies) will brown too quickly on the top
if the
Booster
function is used.
Turn off the
Booster
function for these
items.
