Abstract
A control method for operating a cooking oven in a deep-frying program which is configured for a predetermined set temperature is disclosed, wherein the cooking oven has an oven cavity, a tray arranged within the oven cavity, a bottom heating element for heating the bottom of the cavity, a fan located at the rear wall of the cavity, and a ring heating element surrounding the fan. The method comprises the following stages: (a) a heat-up phase in which the ring heating element is continuously operated and the bottom heating element is intermittently operated, the heat-up phase being conducted until reaching a temperature of the oven cavity which corresponds to the set temperature plus a predetermined first hysteresis; (b) a subsequent holding phase in which the bottom heating element and the ring heating element are non-operative; and (c) a frying phase conducted upon reaching a temperature within the oven cavity which corresponds to the set temperature minus a predetermined second hysteresis, the frying phase comprising continuously or intermittently operating the ring heating element, and intermittently operating the bottom heating element so as to raise the temperature within the oven cavity to a temperature which corresponds to the set temperature plus a predetermined third hysteresis.
