7.4 Hot air
Recommended oven temperature: 180°C
Area of application: 30°C to 230°C
On heating with hot air, the air in the oven is heated up by a heater located behind the back wall of the
oven and is then circulated evenly throughout the oven by means of the hot air fan. The baked products
are therefore heated up from all sides, enabling simultaneous baking at two or three levels. Baking with
hot air is suitable for:
• cake mixtures and sponges as well as for meringues.
7.4.1 Program sequence
1. Heating up with hot air
2. Continued hot air heating
1. Hot air heating
The vent flap and the supply air flap remain open. This ensures a sufficient flow of fresh air (approx.
0.7 m/s).
The hot air fan and the hot air heater remain switched on until the pre-set oven temperature has been
reached. The ventilator fan is switched on. The clear text display indicates “oven is being heated up”.
2. Continued hot air heating
The pre-set oven temperature is maintained by means of a regulating cycle, which switches the hot air
heater on and off respectively. The hot air heater and the hot air fan are switched off once the OFF button
has been pressed or when the operation time has expired. The clear text display indicates “residual heat”
until the temperature falls below a certain level. The ventilator fan also runs for this period of time.
