13.2 Energy saving

The appliance has features which help you save energy during everyday cooking.

Make sure that the appliance door is closed when the appliance operates. Do not open the appliance door too often during cooking. Keep the door gasket clean and make sure it is well fixed in its position.

Use metal cookware to improve energy saving.

When possible, do not preheat the appliance before cooking.

Keep breaks between baking as short as possible when you prepare a few dishes at one time.

Cooking with fan

When possible, use the cooking functions with fan to save energy.

Residual heat

If a programme with Duration is activated and the cooking time is longer than 30 min, the heating elements automatically turn off earlier in some appliance functions.

The fan and lamp continue to operate. When you turn off the appliance, the display shows the residual heat. You can use that heat to keep the food warm.

When the cooking duration is longer than 30 min, reduce the appliance temperature to minimum 3 - 10 min before the end of cooking. The residual heat inside the appliance will continue to cook.

Use the residual heat to warm up other dishes.

Keep food warm

Choose the lowest possible temperature setting to use residual heat and keep a meal warm. The residual heat indicator or temperature appears on the display.

Cooking with the lamp off

Turn off the lamp during cooking. Turn it on only when you need it.

Moist Fan Baking

Function designed to save energy during cooking.

When you use this function the lamp automatically turns off after 30 sec. You may

turn on the lamp again but this action will reduce the expected energy savings.
