2.3 Operating principle of the
operating modes
Hot Air (True Convection)
In the true convection mode, all prepared meals
are cooked at the same temperature. Diverse or
similar meals can be prepared on several levels
without any transfer of taste. You can bake, roast
and sterilize (can foods) with hot air.
Baking with Hot Air (True Convection)
This is the ideal operating mode for baking several
trays and tins at the same time. (Fig. 13)
Roasting with Hot Air (True Convection)
Meat is evenly browned on all sides. When roasting
on the grid, insert the broil pan one level lower to
collect dripping fat.
Hot Air (True Convection) 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. Best baking and
roasting results are 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.

Broiling
When broiling, food is cooked/roasted at a
temperature of 300 - 550 °F / 150 - 300 °C from
above.
Note: During baking stone operation in the upper
oven it is not possible to broil in the bottom oven.
A distinction can be made between the following
types of broiling:
Temperature-controlled Broiling
During temperature-controlled broiling, the heating
element emits a greater or lesser amount of infra-
red radiation depending on the setting of the tem-
perature selector switch. (Fig. 1 )
This method of broiling is suitable for flat pieces of
meat and for browning or gratins.
Do not forget to turn broiled food!
Broiling with the Hot Air Fan (Convection
Broiling) ensures better all-round warming-up,
even when the wire rack is full. There is no need to
turn the food frequently. (Fig. 17)
Economy Broiling
Only the middle area of the broil heating element is
heated, therefore saving energy when broiling
smaller portions. (Fig. 18)
Do not forget to turn broiled food!
12
50
50
Fig. 1

Fig. 18
Fig. 17

Broiling with the rotisserie (upper oven only)
produces a crispy crust and even browning all-
round. (Fig. 19) Insert the support frame for the
rotary spit in the second level from below. Insert the
broil pan one level further down to collect fat.
Please note: The meat probe cannot be used in
combination with the rotary spit. The rotary
spit will not function if the meat probe is
plugged in the socket in the oven.
Baking stone operation (with special
accessories PS 027 and HZ 02 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)
Note: During baking stone operation in the upper
oven it is not possible to broil in the lower oven.
