Electronic precision temperature controlBy precisely regulating the temperature, it is possible, for example, to roast large items at lower temperatures and to keep them warm for several hours without loss of quality. Roasts have never been so tender, pink and juicy.
LCD function display with digital clock
The main functions navigated through the control knobs are always visible on the LCD light display. The additional functions of the touch keys only become visible when needed. The digital clock can be used as a timer independently of the function set for the appliance. The automatic cooking timer allows both the length of cooking and the actual time the oven switches itself off to be programmed up to 24 hours in advance.
Core temperature sensor
With automatic shut off, the core temperature sensor controls the temperature at the center of the food. Gaggenau ovens switch themselves off once the desired temperature is reached. This ensures food is cooked completely through.
"Thermo-Test" actual temperature display
Precise temperature control and monitoring are especially important in the preparation of some dishes. The “Thermo-Test” feature allows you to check the temperature in the cooking compartment at any time and if, for example, you turn it down, it enables you to see when the new required temperature has been reached. Not even commercial appliances have this feature, which is highly appreciated by discerning home chefs.
Super-Quick Preheating
When convection is in operation, the bottom heating element is added automatically, which allows quicker heating up to the desired temperature. For example, a 200 Series oven reaches a temperature of 380°F in approximately 8 minutes. The appliance then switches back to the convection setting automatically. With the new BO 200 Series, Super-Quick Preheating can be used in all heating modes except Eco. Under “Settings”, one can choose between “Regular” and “Super-Quick Preheating”, depending on the operating mode.
Gaggenau Clean-Enamel
Very little food residue bakes onto this special, speckled blue enameling. In most cases a simple sponge soaked in water with detergent suffices for cleaning after normal oven operation. The Clean-Enamel surface of the grill pan and baking inserts are also easy to clean.
Child lock
Prevents the oven from being switched on unintentionally.
Safety lock
Interrupts any heating of the oven after 12 hours if it is not in use and the Sabbath mode is not activated.
Side-opening door
Appliance doors are fitted with heat-insulated glass fronts so it is always possible to keep an eye on what is cooking. The side oven door handle is protected from high temperatures. The door itself opens to a full 180°. The location of the door hinge must be selected when ordering, since it is not reversible.
Cooled housing with temperature protection
Gaggenau ovens feature temperature protection against overheating of the built-in appliance and surrounding kitchen units. Automatic housing cooling switches on as needed, even after the oven is turned off. The fan system is virtually silent.
Pyrolytic self-cleaning
This program, which operates at 905°F, removes any soiling of the oven’s interior unavoidably produced by cooking vapors during roasting and broiling. The duration of the program is set by the Gaggenau factory. During cleaning, the oven door is locked and, once the oven has cooled down, it simply needs wiping with a damp cloth. When the autopyrolysis function is in operation, the appliance automatically determines the level of soiling in the interior of the oven. The optimum cleaning time is selected automatically.
Air cleaning catalyst
Gaggenau is the first manufacturer to produce a built-in air cleaning system for ovens. At all temperatures, the heated catalyst prevents grease and odor particles from escaping when the oven door is closed. The catalytic converter is self-regenerating and has a virtually unlimited service life.
Sabbath mode
This function can keep non-perishable dishes warm from 24 to 74 hours without operating the appliance. While using this function, the light in the cooking compartment is switched off.
