User manual WHIRLPOOL AKZ 398 WH PROGRAM CHART

[. . . ] To cook on more than one shelf level, at the same temperature. To grill small pieces of meat, toasts, etc. For self cleaning with fixed time of 1h 30’. [. . . ] The “stay-cool door” means that the temperature on the front glass panel will be about 40 °C when the temperature inside the oven is 200 °C. Since this temperature on the front of the appliance is only a little higher than the temperature of the human body it ensures total user safety. This type of door also substantially reduces the temperature on the front of the appliance when the self-cleaning function is in operation (a reduction of about 40% compared with a conventional door). Nevertheless, the oven temperatures reached during operation of this function mean that children must be supervised with particular care. 3gb66015. fm5 Page 3 Monday, March 11, 2002 4:00 PM OVEN COOKING FUNCTIONS DEFROSTING FUNCTION This function is used to speed up the natural defrosting of frozen foods.
