Important information about the use of the appliance

Do not use the cooking compartment door as a shelf.
Do not store any food in the appliance. This can lead to

corrosion.

Ovenware Use only the accessories provided. They are specially

designed for your appliance.

Ovenware must be heat and steam resistant. Silicone
baking tins are not suitable for combined operation with
hot air and steam.

Do not use ovenware that shows signs of rust. Even the
smallest spots of rust can lead to corrosion in the cooking
compartment.

Care and cleaning The cooking compartment in your appliance is made of steel

covered with enamel. Improper care can lead to corrosion
in the cooking compartment. Refer to the care and cleaning
instructions in the instruction manual.

Salts are very abrasive. If salt is deposited in the cooking
compartment, rust could develop in places.

Acidic sauces, such as ketchup and mustard, or salted foods,
e.g. cured roasts, contain chloride and acids. These affect the
stainless steel surface. Clean the cooking compartment after
each use.

DO NOT use harsh abrasive cleaners or sharp metal
scrapers to clean the oven door glass since they can scratch
the surface, which may result in shattering of the glass

(if provided).

Modes And Settings

The following table represents the various oven modes and settings of your oven.
Use the cooking guide tables for those modes as guidelines for cooking.

Steam Mode

Food is cooked by steam provided by the steam generator and injected
into the cavity by two jet nozzles.

This mode is suitable for steaming food like vegetables, fi sh, eggs, fruits
and rice. When cooking by using this mode, always fi ll the water tank
with fresh water.

Temperature range: 40~100 °C

Steam Combi Mode

Food is cooked by convection mode and the help of steam. The steam
is provided by the steam generator and injected into the cavity by
interval.

This mode is suitable for baking pastries, such as puff pastry, brioches,
yeast buns, bread rolls, gratins and roasting meat. The superheated
steam will provide a nice crisp, shiny surface and fl uffy structure. Meat
roasts and fi sh will keep a more juicy texture inside. When cooking with
this mode always fi ll the water tank with fresh water.

Temperature range: 100~230 °C

Reheat Mode

Food is reheated by convection mode and the help of steam. The
steam is provided by the steam generator and injected into the cavity by
interval.

This mode is suitable for plated meals. Dishes can be gently reheated
without drying out. When reheating with this mode always fi ll the water
tank with fresh water.

Temperature: 120 °C

Convection Mode

Food is heated by two heating elements on top of cavity and one bottom
heating element, while the fan from the side distributes the hot air evenly.
This setting is suitable for roasting meat, baking pizza and cake.

Temperature range: 40~230 °C

Grill Mode

Food is heated by the top heating elements. We recommend this mode
for grilling smaller pieces of meat, such as steaks and sausages, as well
for making toasts.

14

Modes And Settings (Continued)

Defrost Mode

Frozen food is defrosted by steam. The steam is provided by the steam
generator and injected into the cavity by interval.

This mode is suitable for frozen meat, poultry, fi sh and fruit. When
defrosting with this mode always fi ll the water tank with fresh water.

Temperature range: 40~70 °C

Keeping warm

This mode is suitable for keeping warm food.
(Do not keep food warm for longer than 2 hours. Warm food spoils more

quickly).
Temperature: 70 °C

Auto Cook Programmes

40 pre-programmed auto cook settings can be selected for your
convenience. Time and temperature will be set automatically. You
simply select the programme, the weight of your dish and start the
steam cooking process.

Steam Clean

By the help of hot steam the surface of the oven cavity will be soaked
and you can easily clean your oven. The steam clean programme takes
only 10 minutes time.
