Preheating the oven
The Boosterfunction is used to quickly
preheat the oven compartment in some
operating modes.
The Preheatfunction can be used with
any oven operating mode and has to be
turned on separately for each cooking
program.
The oven compartment only needs to
be preheated in a few cases.
Preheat the oven compartment when
cooking the following food:
- cakes, cookies, and pastries with a
short cooking duration (approx.
30minutes or less) as well as delicate
items (e.g., sponge) with the Sur-
roundoperating mode (without
the Boosterfunction)
Booster
The Boosterfunction is activated as the
factory default setting for the following
operating modes (Settings| Booster| On):
- Convection Bake
- Convection Roast
- Surround
If you set a temperature above 210°F
(100°C) and the Boosterfunction is
turned on, a rapid preheating phase
heats the oven compartment to the set
temperature. The browning/broiling ele-
ment and the ring heating element
come on together with the hot air
blower.
Delicate items (e.g., sponge cake or
cookies) will brown too quickly on
the top if the Boosterfunction is
used.
Turn off the Boosterfunction for these
items.
Turning Booster on or off for a cook-
ing program
If you have selected the Booster|
Onsetting, you can turn the function off

the function separately for a cooking

ing mode and the required settings
such as the temperature.

Depending on the color scheme,

The Boosterfunction is turned off during
the preheating phase. Only the heating
elements for the selected operating
mode are used to preheat the oven
compartment.
