Abstract
A cooking appliance comprises at least one cooking compartment, at least one installation compartment, at least one gas sensor array for detecting the atmosphere within the cooking compartment, the atmosphere within the installation compartment, and/or the atmosphere surrounding the cooking appliance. The gas sensor array(s) have at least two separate, different individual sensors and/or at least one coherent sensor field including at least two different sensor segments. The cooking appliance additionally includes at least one storage unit for storing signals detected by the gas sensor array(s), at least one evaluation unit for processing the detected signals, at least one control unit for controlling cooking or cleaning processes, at least one first feed line for transporting the atmosphere from the cooking appliance to the gas sensor array(s), and at least one valve at the inlet and/or in the area of the first feed line.
