What it's used for and how it works
Hot air grilling
Roast poultry, whole fish or large pieces of meat.
The grill element and the fan switch on and off alternately. The fan circulates the
hot air around the food.
Top/bottom heating
Traditionally bake or roast on one level. This type of heating is especially suit-
able for cakes with moist toppings.
The heat is emitted evenly from above and below.
This type of heating is used to determine the energy consumption in the conven-
tional mode.

Heat-up indicator
The appliance indicates when it is heating up.
When the appliance is heating, the symbol lights up
on the display. This symbol goes out when heating is
paused.
When you preheat the appliance, the optimal time to
place your food in the cooking compartment is when
the symbol first goes out.
Note:
Due to thermal inertia, the temperature that is
displayed may differ slightly from the actual temperat-
ure inside the cooking compartment.
Cooking with induction
In comparison to conventional hobs, induction techno-
logy brings with it a series of changes and has a num-
ber of benefits such as time savings when cooking and
frying, energy savings as well as greater ease of clean-
ing and care. It also offers improved heat control as the
heat is generated directly in the cookware.

On certain models, specific details such as the colour
