3.2 Operating the timer
The required mode and temperature can be set before and after time programming by turning the "Temperature" or "Mode" knob.
As long as one or several symbol(s) in the display flash(es), no input is possible and no value is pro- grammed or an invalid value has been programmed.
All time values are entered by means of the 
(timer), +, – and 
(confirmation) keys. Every input triggers an audible and a visible signal.
If you select a program (e.g. end), but you do not enter a value, the current time will appear on the display after 20 seconds.
An entered value (e.g. duration programming)
must be confirmed within 20 seconds 
("Confirm" key). Entered values are not stored if they are not confirmed.
Press the 
(Confirm) key if you wish to confirm a value during programming.
If you press any other key instead, the entered value will not be stored and will disappear.
You can query set values by pressing the 
(timer) key. The value appears on the display for around 10 seconds. During this time, you can modify the value by pressing the + or – key and you can confirm it by pressing the 
(Confirm) key.
Press the + and – keys at the same time if you wish to clear a value.
If you have already programmed a time value once (e.g. a duration) on the appliance, this previously programmed value will be proposed to you when programming a value again.
The longer you press the + or – key when programming a time, the faster the time elapses on the display.
After completion of time programming, the corresponding symbol flashes on the display. For example, if you have programmed an end time, the 
(end time) symbol will flash. An audible signal is also sounded. Heating is deactivated and the oven lighting goes off. You can restart the previously selected mode by pressing any key on the display. You end the baking process by turning the "Temperature" knob to 0.
Switching from the automatic mode to the "normal mode":
Turn the temperature control knob back to 0. The oven will then no longer heat. The previously programmed time value is retained. An audible signal sounds after the entered time has elapsed.
Note: If the time is not displayed exactly on the timer, this not due to a technical defect. The mains frequency of the public power supply is the time base for the timers. In Europe, this is a standard frequency of 50 Hz (Hertz). As far as this point is concerned, power supply networks that are fed from power stations in eastern Europe fluctuate. This is why an incorrect time may be displayed. This discrepancy has no influence on the functions and program sequences of the appliance.
Every alarm goes off after 3 minutes.
Note: all time programming functions can be programmed simultaneously.
