Temperature indicator

The temperature indicator light ￿ will appear next to the temperature in the display. The indicator light is always on when the heating is on.

When the set temperature is reached,

–the oven heating switches off.

–the temperature indicator light goes out.

–a buzzer will sound, if the buzzer is switched on (see "Settings ￿" - P 2)

However, if the temperature falls below the set temperature, the oven heating and the temperature indicator light will switch on again.

Pre-heating

Most dishes can be placed in a cold oven. They will then make use of the heat produced during the heating-up phase.

It is only necessary to pre-heat the oven in a few instances:

With Fan plus ￿,

–pre-heating may be necessary for foods which cook in less than 20 minutes and for foods such as puff pastries and yeast mixtures where instant heat is required to make them rise quickly.

–for roasting beef/fillet.

With Conventional ￿

–it is usually necessary to pre-heat the oven.

Do not use Rapid heat-up ￿ to pre-heat the oven when baking pizzas or biscuits and small cakes. They will brown too quickly.

To pre-heat the oven:

￿Select Rapid heat-up ￿ and set a temperature.

￿When the temperature indicator light ￿ goes out for the first time, set the oven function you require for continued cooking or baking, and place the food in the oven.
