Hot air (see Figure 5)
The fan in the rear wall distributes the hot air
in the oven. This is used to heat the dishes.
You can use several levels at the same time,
thus saving energy. The hot air system is
highly suitable for baking cakes, cookies and
apple tarts. You can bake on multiple levels
simultaneously if desired, in which case the
tins should be aligned directly under one
another. Baking sheets with cookies should
be positioned on the first and third levels.
Grill
For grilling of dishes.
The dishes are heated by the radiation heat of
the combined grill/backing element. The
thermostat also sets the grill. The element will
not continuously light, but only from time to
time. The dishes get a crispy brown crust.
When grilling, you should set the temperature
knob to the maximum setting. This also applies
when you use the rotisserie grill set.
Hot air grilling (see Figure 6)
fig.
By setting the knob of the hot air oven to the
grill position above, you can grill with the fan
on. The radiated heat will be circulated
around the dish by the blower.
This setting is suitable for thin pieces of meat
and chicken halves.
The glass oven door can heat up (to a max. of
100 °C) when using the oven at maximum
temperature for a long time (e.g. during
grilling). Act with care if children are nearby.
Always grill with a closed oven door.
Housing cooling
The housing cooling is equipped with a
temperature controlled cooling fan. After use
of the oven at high baking or frying
temperatures, the cooling fan continues to
operate for a while - even if the oven has been
switched off - in order to cool the oven
sufficiently. After some time, the cooling fan
automatically switches itself off. It is
automatically switched on again if the
temperature in the oven rises too much as a
result of the heat still present in the oven.
