Blomberg oven symbols
6 symbols that Blomberg itself documents, each in our own drawing, with the Blomberg name for the mode next to ours. Tap a symbol for what it does, where makes differ and every source.
Check your manual — models differ. Two Blomberg ovens can carry different sets of symbols, and the same drawing can mean different things on different brands; only your model’s manual says exactly which elements run and how hot.

Blomberg belongs to the same group as Beko (Arçelik), but its own symbol guide names the settings differently, so it has its own page here; Beko has a separate one. Blomberg’s guide covers only the six common dial symbols and warns that symbols vary between models, so anything else on your dial is in your manual.
