Safety thermostat

To prevent dangerous overheating (through
incorrect use of the appliance or defective
components), the oven is fitted with a safety
thermostat, which interrupts the power supply. The
oven switches back on again automatically, when
the temperature drops.
Should the safety thermostat trigger due to incorrect
use of the appliance, it is enough to remedy the error
after the oven has cooled down; if on the other hand,
the thermostat triggers because of a defective
component, please contact the local customer
service.

The cooling fan

The cooling fan is designed to cool the oven and
the control panel. The fan switches on automatically
after a few minutes of cooking. Warm air is blown
out through the aperture near the oven door
handle. When the oven is switched off, the fan
may run on after the oven is switched off to keep
the controls cool. This is quite normal.

The action of the cooling fan will depend
on how long the oven has been used and
at what temperature. It may not switch in at
all at lower temperature settings nor run
on where the oven has only been used
for a short time.
