Bosch single oven with delayed timing
Discussion
Last week I had the above fitted and I find when the oven had the delayed timer set a fan inside the oven starts. I've contacted Bosch and they say this is ok. My electrician phone them and spoke to the technical dept who say its new legislation to protect the food in the oven before it starts cooking. I disagree as its using power for no reason. Has anyone else found this problem
Is it the main fan... In the middle of the back 'wall'?? Or another fan somewhere?
As our Neff has a small fan that starts up when in delay start mode.
It's not the main fan, seems more like one fitted to cool the control area after oven is turned off or something..
Definitely can t see the main one on the back spinning, but there is something blowing gently.
ETA...
It does the same on both the single oven, and the double.

Why is air blowing out of the top of the oven door?
Don’t panic! This is totally normal. The cooling fan inside the oven is in operation and works to blow air out through the vent at the top of your oven door, just below the control panel. This is an important function that keeps the control panel cool to the touch, preventing the cook from burning their fingers when altering the controls during cooking.

Cooling Ventilation
In order to cool down the external temperature of the oven, some models are fitted with a cooling fan that blows out air between the control panel and the oven door.

Have you read the instruction manual or Googled this for a technical bulletin? BTW, if Bosch themselves say it's OK, then I'd guess it's OK? (Power use for fan only would be minimal)Gassing Station | Homes, Gardens and DIY | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
