SurroundCook convection circulates hot air throughout the cavity for even results. Pyrolytic cleaning converts residues to ash for quick wipe-downs.
Even, consistent results – with the SurroundCook convection system
SurroundCook forces hot air to circulate evenly around the oven cavity and uses an additional heating ring to eliminate cold spots, allowing up to three trays to be used without uneven cooking. Faster airflow also means cooking temperatures can be reduced by up to 20 percent.
Corner-to-corner roasting and baking become reliable, so meals cook at the same rate whether on the top or bottom shelf. Expect fewer soggy bases and more predictable timings when juggling several dishes.
Low-effort cleaning – thanks to Pyrolytic Self Clean
Pyrolytic cleaning heats the oven to very high temperatures so grease and burnt-on food are reduced to ash, which is then easy to remove with a damp cloth. The function is activated with a single touch.
Cleaning moves from scrubbing to a quick wipe, saving time after heavy cooking sessions. The enamel interior becomes simpler to maintain, ideal for regular roast dinners and baking weekends.
Faster prep and precise control – with EXPlore LED and fast heat up
EXPlore LED uses a touch interface to set cooking time, temperature and select functions, while the fast heat up reduces preheat time to reach cooking temperature more quickly.
Quicker preheat shortens waiting time before starting a roast or baking, and the responsive touch display makes switching functions or adjusting temperature straightforward. Useful when planning staggered dishes for a family meal.
