Culisensor
• Culisensor; can be used to measure the core temperature of
the dish. When the desired temperature is reached, the cooking
process will be stopped automatically.
Guide rails
• The oven has four or five shelf levels, depending on the model.
Level 1 is mainly used in combination with bottom heat.
Levels 3 and 4/5 are used mainly for the grill function.
• Place the oven rack or baking tray in the gap between the guide
rail sliders.
Telescopic guide rail
• A number of shelf levels have a fully-retractable telescopic guide
rail.
• Pull the telescopic guide rails out of the oven cavity completely
and place the oven rack or baking tray. Then slide the oven rack or
baking tray, on the telescopic guide rails, back into the oven cavity.
Only close the oven door when the telescopic guide rails are returned
completely back into the oven cavity.
Pyrolysis guide rail
• Only use for pyrolysis cleaning. If you also want to clean the baking
tray with pyrolysis, then place these guide rails.
• Please note; the high temperature during pyrolysis can cause the
guide rails to discolour.

Rotisserie
This is used for roasting all kinds of dishes such as rolled meats or
chicken. The rotisserie comprises a spit with 2 clamps, a detachable
handle and a spit roast that fits in the centre of the oven. The spit fits in
the rotisserie motor in the back wall of the oven.
• Slide the deep baking tray in at level 1 to catch juices or fat.
• Slide one of the clamps onto the spit and then slide the meat you
wish to roast onto the spit.
• Place the spit roast in the central oven level with the ‘v’ shape to
the front.
• The handle can be screwed onto the blunt end of the spit to make
positioning the spit easier.
• Place the spit on the spit roast with the pointed end away from you.
Push gently until the spit fits in the rotisserie motor in the back wall.
The blunt end of the spit needs to fit in the ‘v’ shape. (The spit has
two notches, both of which need to be mounted on the oven door
side so that the spit stays in position. The notches also serve as a
grip for the handle.)
• The rotisserie motor starts running when a function with grill has
been started
• Remove the handle prior to baking or roasting. You can then
reattach the handle to the spit to remove this from the oven easily.
EN 8
Door
• The door switches interrupt the operation of the oven when the oven
door is opened during use. The oven resumes operation when the
door is closed.
• This oven has a ‘Soft close door system’. When closing the oven
door, this system dampens the movement, from a certain angle, and
silently closes the oven door.
