Heating-up phase
The display shows the temperature in
the oven compartment as it rises during
the heating-up phase in all functions
(exceptions:
Full Grill , Economy Grill ).
The duration of the heating-up phase
with steam cooking will depend on the
quantity and temperature of the food. In
general, the heating-up phase will take
approx. 7 minutes. It will be longer if
you are cooking refrigerated or frozen
food. The heating-up phase may also
take longer when cooking at lower
temperatures and when cooking with
the
Sous-vide

function.
Cooking phase
The elapsing remaining time is shown in
the display during the cooking phase.
When cooking with steam, the cooking
phase begins once the set temperature
is reached. It starts immediately for all
other functions, programmes and
applications.
Steam reduction
With steam cooking and Combi mode,
the steam reduction function will switch
on automatically at the end of a cooking
programme which uses a temperature
within a certain temperature range. This
is to prevent a large amount of steam
escaping when the door is opened.
Steam reduction appears in the display.
Steam reduction can be switched off
(see “Settings - Steam reduction”).
When steam reduction is switched off, a
large amount of steam will escape when
the door is opened.
Oven interior lighting
For energy saving reasons, the oven
interior lighting has been set at the
factory to go out after the programme
has begun.
If you want the lighting to remain on
during cooking, the relevant setting
needs to be changed (see “Settings –
Lighting”).
If the door is left open at the end of a
cooking programme, the oven lighting
will switch off automatically after
5 minutes.
The lighting can be switched on for
15 seconds by touching the
 sensor
on the control panel.
