Handling and user interface

Operation is via a full touch display with stainless steel control ring. The handleless full glass door opens electronically and is cushioned, with an opening angle of approximately 110 °. User detection with adjustable distance activates light and display response. Info texts and animated quick guides assist with appliance operation, and 42 display languages are available.

Cooking performance features

The invisible full surface grill behind enamel (3.4 kW) can be added briefly in hot air mode for additional browning. The hot air fan rotates in both directions for ideal heat distribution, and extra powerful bottom heating supports the baking stone and roaster functions. Precise temperature control with display of the current temperature and rapid heating further enhance performance.

The three-point core temperature probe offers cooking time estimation via Home Connect. Timer functions include cooking time, cooking time end, count-up timer and a long-term timer with pre-programmable heating cycles. Programmable automatic door opening at cooking time end helps avoid overcooking. Side lighting provides optimum visibility of the food across 4 tray levels.

Digital connectivity (Home Connect)

Selected digital services with Gaggenau Home Connect include remote control and monitoring, software updates, cooking time estimation when using the core temperature probe and door opening via a voice assistant.

Safety and cooling

Safety features comprise a child lock to prevent accidental switch-on or operation, an electronic door lock to prevent unintentional opening, and a safety shut-off. The thermally insulated door with quintuple glazing and cooled housing with temperature protection contribute to safe operation.

Cleaning and maintenance

The pyrolytic system provides high-efficiency cleaning in less than 4 hours. Pyrolysis operates with minimised odour development thanks to the heated catalyser. Side shelf supports are enamelled and pyrolysis-safe, while the seamless cooking compartment is free from obstructive elements to support easier cleaning.

Installation and planning notes

The niche should be planned without a back wall, and the mains socket must be accessible and located outside the built-in niche. The protrusion from the appliance front to the furniture cabinet is 42 mm. For corner installations, the side-opening door and minimum distance to the wall must be considered.

When installing underneath cooktops, the distance between the underside of the cooktop and the top edge of the oven housing must be at least 15 mm, and cooktop planning notes (including ventilation and gas/electric connection) must be followed.
