2.3 Operating principle of the
operating modes
Hot air
In the hot air mode, all prepared meals are cooked
at the same temperature. Diverse or similar meals
can be prepared on several levels without any
trransfer of taste.
You can bake, roast and sterilise with hot air.
Baking with hot air
This is the ideal operating mode for baking several
trays and tins at the same time. (Fig. 13)
Roasting with hot air
Meat is evenly browned on all sides. When cooking
on the grid, push the grilling tray one level lower to
collect dripping fat.
Hot air and bottom heat
When this function is used, the bottom heating
element is additionally in operation.
The fan wheel ensures a uniform distribution of
heat. Heat is also generated from below. (Fig. 14)
Top and bottom heat
Two heating elements (top and bottom heat) are
operated jointly.
When baking with top and bottom heat, you can
only use one level. You get the best baking and
roasting results on the second level from below.
(Fig. 15)
This unit allows you to select the top and bottom
heat elements separately. In these modes of
operation you can deliberately choose to bake or
roast food from the top or the bottom.

Grilling
When grilling, food is cooked/roasted at a temperature of 150-300 °C / 300-500 °F from above. A distinction can be made between the following kinds:
Temperature-controlled grilling:
During temperature-controlled grilling, the heating
element emits a greater or lesser amount of infrared radiation depending on the setting of the temperature selector switch. (Fig. 16)
This method of grilling is suitable for flat pieces of
meat and for browning or gratins.
Do not forget to turn grilled food!
Grilling with the hot air fan therefore ensures
better all-round warming-up, even when the grill is
full. There is no need to turn the food frequently.
(Fig. 17)
Economy grilling
Only the middle area of the grill heating element is
heated.
Do not forget to turn grilled food!
Grilling with the rotary spit produces a crispy
crust and even browning all-round. (Fig. 18) Insert
the support frame for the rotary spit in the second
level from below. Insert the grilling tray one level
further down to collect fat.
Please note: the core temperature sensor
cannot be used in combination with the rotary
spit. The rotary spit will not function if the
core temperature sensor is plugged in the
socket in the oven.

Fermenting
When using the fermenting function, you can raise
dough at 38 °C / 100 °F or you can thaw frozen food
swiftly and gently. (Fig. 19)
The light is off in this mode of operation
because it would otherwise additionally heat
up the oven compartment. You can switch on
the lighting for a few seconds by pressing any
key.
Baking stone operation (with special
accessories PS 026/027 and HZ 026/027 only)
Be it crispy pizza or fresh bread - with the baking
stone you produce baking results that are
comparable to those of a solid stone oven (Fig. 20).
Roaster operation (with special accessories
BT 026 and HZ 026 only)
Using the cast roaster you can brown and gently
roast large quantities of meat, or you can prepare a
Christmas turkey or a large oven-baked dish
(Fig. 21).

2.4 Special functions
Display of the current oven temperature
(Thermotest)
Power failure safeguard
Holiday safeguard
Child lock
Cleaning (auto pyrolysis)
ECO operation
The current oven temperature is displayed for a few
seconds.
Note: when the oven is operated continuously,
temperature fluctuations of up to 5 °C / 40 °F , which
are inherent to the system, may occur.
Note: during the pyrolysis process, it is not
possible to display the current oven temperature.
When the oven is on, the heating process is
interrupted when the power returns after a failure.
Note: the appliance bridges a power failure lasting
5 minutes without any consequences.
Every oven heating process is cancelled after
12 hours if the oven has not been operated during
this time. This function is not active if the timer has
been programmed.
The child lock prevents inadvertent activation of the
oven.
In the cleaning mode, the oven is heated up to a
temperature of 485°C / 915 °F. At this high
temperature, even the most stubborn of soiling is
burnt away.
When you use the power-saving ECO mode, the
light is switched off during the cooking process. If a
cooking time has been programmed, the oven also
switches off the heating element before expiry of
the programmed time to make use of the residual
heat. You can switch the ECO mode on and off in
the options menu.
