4.4 Temperature and setting levels
There are different settings for the types of heating and
functions.
The settings appear in the display.
The temperature can be set in 1 degree increments up
to 100°C, and in 5 degree increments thereafter.
Note:For grill setting3, the appliance lowers the set-
ting to grill setting1 after approx. 20minutes.
Heat-up indicator
The appliance indicates when it is heating up.
When the appliance is heating, the
⁠symbol fills with
colour on the display.
When you are preheating the appliance, the optimal
time to place your food in the cooking compartment is
as soon as the symbol is completely filled with colour.
Residual heat indicator
If you switch off the appliance, the symbol on the dis-
play shows the residual heat in the cooking compart-
ment. The lower the temperature in the cooking com-
partment, the less the symbol is filled.
Notes
¡ The heat-up indicator will only show the temperature
increasing for types of heating for which a temperat-
ure is set. For grill settings, for example, the heat-up
indicator shows a full line from the beginning.
¡ If the temperature in the cooking compartment is
too high when the appliance is started,
⁠ appears in
the display for some types of heating. Switch off the
appliance and allow it to cool down. Then restart op-
eration of the appliance.
¡ Due to thermal inertia, the temperature displayed
may differ slightly from the actual temperature inside
the cooking compartment.
4.5 Cooking compartment
The functions in the cooking compartment make your
appliance easier to use.
Shelf supports
The shelf supports in the cooking compartment enable
you to place accessories at different heights.
→"Accessories", Page10
Your appliance has five shelf positions. The shelf posi-
tions are numbered from bottom to top.
Depending on the appliance, the shelf supports are fit-
ted with pull-out rails or clip-on pull-out rails. The pull-
out rails are fixed in place and cannot be removed. The
clip-on pull-out rails allow you to use them as you wish
at all free shelf positions.
You can remove the shelf supports, e. g. for cleaning.

Lighting
The oven light lights up the cooking compartment.
With most types of heating and functions, the lighting
lights up during operation. The lighting goes off when
operation ends.
You can switch on the lighting without heating the oven
using the Oven light button.
Cooling fan
The cooling fan switches on automatically during oper-
ation. The hot air escapes above the door.
ATTENTION!
Do not cover the ventilation slot above the appliance
door. The appliance overheats.
▶ Ensure that the ventilation slots are unobstructed.
To ensure that the appliance cools down more quickly
after operation, the cooling fan continues to run for a
certain period afterwards.
Appliance door
If you open the appliance door during operation, the
appliance stops heating. When you close the appliance
door, the appliance continues to heat again.
