Energy saving tips

Residual heat utilisation
– In cooking programmes using tem-
peratures greater than 140 °C and
with cooking durations longer than
30 minutes, the temperature can be
turned down to the lowest possible
level about 5 minutes before the end
of the cooking programme. The re-
sidual heat in the oven is sufficient for
cooking the food until it is done.
However, never switch the oven off
(see “Warning and safety instruc-
tions”).
– It is best to start the pyrolytic clean-
ing programme immediately after a
cooking programme. The residual
heat in the oven will help reduce the
amount of energy required.
Energy-saving mode
The oven will switch itself off automatic-
ally to save energy if a programme is
not being run and controls have not
been operated. The time of day will ap-
pear in the display or the display will re-
main dark (see “Clock/timer – Changing
settings”).
