The appliance’s interior lighting comes on:
• When the door is opened (on some

• When no function is selected, or during a

The fan causes a steady outflow of air from
above the door which may continue for a
brief period of time even after the appliance
has been turned off.
2.4 Advantages of steam cooking
The steam cooking system cooks any type

heating foods without making them tough or
dry out and for naturally removing the salt
from salted foods.
In order to save energy, the light
turns off after a minute at the start of
cooking (this function can be
deactivated via the secondary
menu).
When the door is open, it is not
possible to turn off the interior
lighting (on some models only).
