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.

What it's used for/how it works
1
Roast poultry, whole fish and larger pieces of meat.
The grill element and the fan switch on and off alternately. The fan circulates the
hot air around the food.
1
Traditionally bake or roast on one level. This type of heating is ideal for cakes
with moist toppings.
The heat is emitted evenly from above and below.
This type of heating is used to measure the energy consumption in the conven-
tional mode.
Use
Use programmed setting values for various types of food.

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 9
Your appliance has five shelf positions. The shelf posi-
tions are numbered from bottom to top.
You can remove the shelf supports, e. g. for cleaning.
→ "Shelf supports", Page 23
Self-cleaning surfaces
The back wall in the cooking compartment is self-clean-
ing. The self-cleaning surfaces are coated with a por-
ous, matt ceramic layer and have a rough surface.
When the appliance is in operation, the self-cleaning
surfaces absorb splashes from roasting or grilling and
break them down.
If the self-cleaning surfaces no longer clean themselves
adequately during operation, heat up the cooking com-
partment specifically to the right temperature.

partment", Page 22
