As one of the leading companies in the household appliance market, Siemens is always at the forefront of technical progress and implements the most advanced ideas. In the fall of 2015, Siemens is introducing to the American market its innovative iQ700 series ovens, which will change the traditional concept of the cooking process.
Siemens iQ700 oven
Harmony of beauty
The first thing that appeals about the new Siemens ovens is the design. Rotary switch, large TFT color touch screen and backlit control keys on the front panel gives a sleek and elegant appearance. Oven models are available in two color combinations: black and white with stainless steel elements. Thanks to the strict horizontal lines and minimalist aesthetics, the appliance blends perfectly with other Siemens iQ700 series appliances, and also fits harmoniously both in a line and in a column.
Siemens iQ700 ovens: the laboratory of culinary art
The oven is one of the central appliances in the kitchen. It becomes the ultimate master craftsman, able to satisfy the most diverse tastes and culinary preferences of gourmets. Siemens iQ700 series combines both classic electric ovens and ovens with microwave and steam function. A combination that not only optimizes space by saving on the number of appliances in your kitchen, but also makes cooking truly fun. The oven becomes a cooking laboratory that can do it all: Quickly defrost a pizza, cook dough, bake a cake or a fish in a vegetable crust at the same time, grill meat or poultry, dry fruits and herbs, or even heat a cold dish.
From 10 to 15 different Siemens iQ700 oven heating modes for perfect results and creative freedom. You can save up to 50% of your time with varioSpeed and coolStart modes. VarioSpeed cuts cooking time in half with microwaves. The innovative coolStart mode is suitable for frozen food. A special temperature algorithm lets you defrost and bake foods without preheating the oven. So, a frozen pizza is ready in 12 minutes instead of 20. The new 4D Hot Air mode allows you to cook on all 4 levels at the same time. There is no mixing of odors in the oven. Level 5 is for grilling only. Using all three modes above, you can prepare a full meal in half the time.
The new line also features two brand new modes in addition to the existing ones: “Dough rising” and “Drying”. The first mode allows you to bring dough to the desired state, taking into account all the temperature nuances of the process, the second will help to dry fruits for muesli, vegetables and herbs to later add to soups as seasoning.
For those new to the world of cooking, you’ll love the new cookControl feature. You only need to select the dish you want, then the system will advise you on the correct heating mode, temperature, time and use of additional functions. The roastingSensor Plus and the baking sensor are indispensable when time is short. They control important cooking steps humidity, cooking and determine exactly when the process is finished. The RoastingSensor Plus measures temperatures at three different points, so you can grill your food to perfection. No more trying to see if the chicken is cooked or if the muffin is done. The iQ700 Smart Ovens analyze all the information for you.
The ovens are controlled by a rotary switch and a touch screen with color animations or a graphic display, depending on the oven model.
Microwave oven
Our modern pace of life has accustomed us to instant results. With this in mind and to meet the basic needs of users, Siemens has developed one of the fastest iQ700 series ovens with varioSpeed, where the microwave is integrated into a full-size oven. Microwaves can be operated as a stand-alone unit or in combination with top and bottom heat, 4D hot air, convection grill and Vario-grill. This cuts cooking time by as much as 50%. A cake will be ready in 30 to 40 minutes instead of 60, and a lasagne will be ready in 20 instead of 40.
Smart Steam
The iQ700 line also includes ovens with steam or 100% steam modes. The pulseSteam function allows you to create even more meals where steaming is an important part of the cooking process. Partial steam with pulseSteam is perfect for baking and roasting meat without drying it out, while full Steam mode is ideal for preparing fish and vegetables. The Siemens iQ700 range also includes steamers, steam ovens and pulseSteam ovens that can be built into 45 cm wide apertures. These compact virtuosos are as functional as full-size appliances and can create culinary masterpieces just as they are.
Trouble-free cleanliness
After the creative process of cooking, it’s time to clean up. But Siemens iQ700 series ovens can do it all for you. They are equipped with a high-strength enamel that does not absorb dirt and is resistant to abrasion. The activeClean self-cleaning function means that you don’t have to manually remove dirt from the interior. During the pyrolysis process, which lasts 60 to 120 minutes, the oven cavity heats up to 480 degrees Celsius. After that all you have to do is wipe the ash off the walls, without the need for any additional chemical cleaners.
Optional Siemens iQ700 built-in appliances
The ability to brew delicious coffee is a great value. Siemens iQ700 automatic coffee machines excel at this. Intelligent grinding and water heating for each individual beverage makes this appliance a true barista. Intelligent Heater inside with temperature sensors is an innovative water heating system: The SensoFlowSystem ensures an optimal brewing temperature.
The iQ700 range of appliances combines state-of-the-art technology, but Siemens knows you can’t move forward without carrying on the tradition. For example, when laying the table there are still certain rules that need to be observed. 20 liter capacity warming drawer with 4 power settings for preparing tableware with up to 64 espresso cups or 12 dishes 26 cm in diameter. But the functionality of this small appliance does not end there: it will also allow you to defrost food, keep warm or gently stew dishes. Thanks to its smart design, the drawer blends in with any compact appliance in the iQ700 range.
High-tech in a perfect shape, ready to showcase superior performance and meet user expectations, both externally and internally. Made in Germany, Siemens iQ700 ovens meet German standards of quality, strength, durability and progressiveness in every possible way.
