Status bar
The status bar is at the top of the display. The time and
set time functions are displayed here.
Progress line
The progress line shows you how much the oven has
already heated up or how much time has elapsed, for
example. The straight line below the in-focus value
progresses from left to right, the longer the operation
continues to run.
Countdown
If you have started your appliance without a cooking
time, you can see how long the operation has already
been running for at the top right in the status bar.
If you had set a cooking time and it was deleted, the
countdown applies the time that has already elapsed
and continues to count down from this time. You can
therefore always check how long the operation has
already been running.
Temperature indicator
The temperature indicator bars show the heating
phases or residual heat in the cooking compartment.
Heating indicator The heating indicator displays the rising tempera-
ture in the cooking compartment. When all bars
are filled, the optimum time for placing the dish in
the oven has been reached.
The bars do not appear when settings are applied
for grilling and cleaning.
Residual heat When the appliance is switched off, the tempera-
indicator ture indicator shows the residual heat in the cook-
ing compartment. Once the temperature has
dropped to approximately 60 °C, the display goes
out.
