Know before you buy
No, the Air Fry function is integrated into the oven's convection system and does not require external venting. It uses the twin vertical fans to circulate hot air effectively, mimicking the results of a countertop air fryer within the oven cavity.
The SmartHQ app allows you to monitor your oven's status, receive alerts when preheating is complete, and control settings remotely from your smartphone. It is particularly useful for checking on long-duration dishes like roasts or slow-cooked meals while you are in another room.
Yes, the full-extension sliding shelves are designed to be easily removed. This makes it simple to clean the interior of the oven or adjust the shelf positions to accommodate larger cookware.
This oven uses a pyrolytic self-cleaning cycle, which heats the interior to a very high temperature to break down food residue into ash. Once the cycle is complete and the oven has cooled, you simply wipe away the remaining ash with a damp cloth.
While the Grey Glass finish is sleek and modern, it is a glass surface and may show fingerprints with regular use. A quick wipe with a microfiber cloth is usually sufficient to keep the exterior looking pristine.
The 6.8-inch touchscreen is highly responsive, but like most touch-sensitive interfaces, it works best with clean, dry fingers. It is recommended to wipe your hands before adjusting settings to ensure the best responsiveness.
