These timings are guides and may vary based on food characteristics and personal preference. Preheating is recommended for combi mode cooking.
Maintenance Features
- Power Failure: If a power failure occurs, any programmed cooking will be cancelled, and the oven will need to be reprogrammed.
- Oven Lamp: The oven lamp lights up when the oven door is opened, even if the oven is switched off. During cooking, the oven lamp is lit.
- Odor during low-temperature cooking: In microwave-only or combi mode cooking at low temperatures, an odor may remain after removing food because the oven stays cold. In such cases, it is recommended to operate the oven in fan-assisted cooking mode at 230°C for 20 minutes to clear the odor.
- Changing settings during cooking: Microwave level and cooking time can be changed during cooking.
- Clock display in microwave functions: For microwave functions, the oven clock displays cooking time in minutes and seconds.
Safety Considerations:
- For safety reasons, the maximum "Cook time" in microwave mode is limited to 12 minutes at the highest power level. At other power levels, this time may extend up to 90 minutes.
- While making any setting, related symbols will flash on the display to indicate active adjustments.
- Current time cannot be set if the oven is operating any function.
- Cooking with several racks in microwave and combi modes is not possible; these modes are suitable for cooking with one rack only.
- The oven is not heated in microwave mode alone; only the food is heated.
