Safety Temperatures
The safety temperatures that cause a fault code to show during normal operation of the appliance are:
1. F04 - If the NTC sensor on the main board reaches 85°C during oven operation;
2. F06 - If the PTC sensor in the oven reaches 360°C during cooking.
If one of these two conditions occurs, a safety procedure is activated and all elements are
disconnected except for the cooling fan which will run at maximum speed and a fault code will be
displayed.
The fault will be cleared a soon as the temperature falls 30°C below the tripping value.
Dual Flow Technology
Hot air (red arrow) from oven cavity is expelled from underneath the control panel (yellow arrow) via a
catalytic converter and cool air (blue arrow) is drawn from the external rear part of the oven and down
between the door glasses to keep the door cool.
When refitting either the door or the control panel it is CRITICAL for correct operation that a gap of at
least 4 mm is maintained between the two. The position of the door is fixed, but the control panel can
be repositioned up or down by a few millimetres.
