Oven controls
(features will vary depending on model)
The oven controls are used to operate
the various cooking functions for
baking, roasting and grilling.
Ovens with a clock/timer also offer the
following:
–
a time of day display,
–
a minute minder,
–
a timer to automatically switch
cooking programmes on and off,
– settings that can be customised.
Safety features
System lock 0 for the oven
The system lock prevents the oven from
being used unintentionally (see
"Clock/timer - Changing settings – P3").
When the system lock is engaged 0
will appear in the display.
Cooling fan
A cooling fan will come on
automatically when a cooking
programme is started. The cooling fan
mixes hot air from the oven cavity with
cool room air before venting it out into
the kitchen through vents located
between the appliance door and the
control panel.
The cooling fan will continue to run for a
while after a programme to prevent
moisture building up in the oven, on the
control panel or in the oven housing
unit.
When the temperature in the oven has
fallen sufficiently, the cooling fan will
switch off automatically.
Vented oven door
The oven door glass panes have a
heat-reflecting coating.
When the oven is operating, air is
passed through the door to keep the
outer pane cool.
The door can be removed and
dismantled for cleaning (see "Cleaning
and care").
Door lock - Pyrolytic cleaning
For safety reasons the door is locked as
soon as the pyrolytic cleaning
programme is started. After the
Pyrolytic cleaning programme has
finished, the door will remain locked
until the temperature in the oven has
fallen below 280 °C.
