Abstract

A raised-level built-in cooking appliance, such as a wall-mounted oven, has a housing with a cooking chamber that is downwardly open. A floor chamber opening is selectively closed by a lowerable trapdoor. A door guide enables the bottom door to be lowered along a lifting path. The trapdoor guide has a first guide element on the housing side and a second guide element on the trapdoor side. In addition, at least one intermediate element is provided so that the trapdoor may be lowered over as long a lifting path as possible. The intermediate element connects the first guide element to the second guide element and extends the lifting path of the trapdoor.
