6. ADDITIONAL FUNCTIONS
6.1 Cooling fan
When the appliance operates, the cooling
fan activates automatically to keep the
surfaces of the appliance cool. If you de-
activate the appliance, the cooling fan
continues to operate until the temperature
in the appliance cools down.
6.2 Safety thermostat
Incorrect operation of the appliance or de-
fective components can cause dangerous
overheating. To prevent this, the oven has
a safety thermostat which interrupts the
power supply. The oven activates again
automatically when the temperature
drops.
7. HELPFUL HINTS AND TIPS
• The appliance has five shelf levels.
Count the shelf levels from the bottom
of the appliance floor.
• The appliance has a special system
which circulates the air and constantly
recycles the steam. With this system
you can cook in a steamy environment
and keep the food soft inside and crus-
ty outside. It decreases the cooking
time and energy consumption to a mini-
mum.
• Moisture can condense in the appliance
or on the door glass panels. This is nor-
mal. Always stand back from the appli-
ance when you open the appliance
door while cooking. To decrease the
condensation, operate the appliance for
10 minutes before cooking.
• Clean the moisture after each use of
the appliance.
• Do not put the objects directly on the
appliance floor and do not put alumini-
um foil on the components when you
cook. This can change the baking re-
sults and cause damage to the enamel.
7.1 Baking cakes
• Do not open the oven door before 3/4
of the set cooking time is up.
• If you use two baking trays at the same
time, keep one empty level between
them.
7.2 Cooking meat and fish
• Use a deep pan for very fatty food to
prevent the oven from stains that can
be permanent.
• Leave the meat for approximately 15
minutes before carving so that the juice
does not seep out.
• To prevent too much smoke in the oven
during roasting, add some water into
the deep pan. To prevent the smoke
condensation, add water each time af-
ter it dries up.
7.3 Cooking times
Cooking times depend on the type of
food, its consistency, and volume.
Initially, monitor the performance when
you cook. Find the best settings (heat set-
ting, cooking time, etc.) for your cook-
ware, recipes and quantities when you
use this appliance.
