A rotisserie oven for a food product, such as poultry, has a casing defining an oven cavity, and has a rotor, rotatably connected to the casing, with a drive for driving the rotor, and a heater for heating the food product, and a control system for controlling the drive. The control system has a control unit, a touchscreen, and a contactless motion sensor which is configured to recognize a motion of an object or of an operator's body part in front of the contactless motion sensor. The control system is programmed to initiate an action based on the recognized motion.
