Energy-saving tips

Residual heat utilization
- The temperature in cooking programs
using temperatures above 285°F
(140°C) which take longer than
30 minutes to cook can be turned
down to the lowest possible
temperature about 5 minutes before
the end of cooking. The residual heat
in the oven is sufficient for cooking
the food until it is done. However, do
not turn the oven off (see
“IMPORTANT SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS”).
- If you have set a cooking duration for
a cooking program, the oven heating
elements will turn off automatically
shortly before the end of cooking.
The residual heat in the oven is
sufficient to complete the cooking
process.
- It is best to start the Self Clean
program immediately after a cooking
program. The residual heat in the
oven will help reduce the amount of
energy required.
