Water drainage

Water drainageWater drainage

Water drainage

A drain pipe comes out from the rear of the appliance, to drain the oven cavity. This pipe must
be connected up to a pipe made to resist steam temperatures (90°C-100°C) with an internal
diameter of 16 mm (DN 16). To prevent choking, it is best to use a rigid pipe and make sure
there are no "elbow" bends anywhere along the drain line.

Furthermore, the drain line must slope down (minimum slope 5%) along its full length (the
length in question is from the appliance's drain pipe to the drain point and must not exceed 2
metres). The drain line must run into an open floor drain (Fig.1). In addition, there must be a
free air gap of at least 25 mm (distance between the drain line coming from the appliance and
the funnel on the drain standpipe). Whatever the case, in order to comply with current hygiene
standards, the line connected to the appliance's drain pipe must not come into direct contact
with the drain point. It is advisable to include a suitable trap in the line connecting the
appliance's drain outlet to the grey water waste system, thus stopping the steam coming back
out of the drain.

First ignition

The oven can be used for the first time only after the chamber has been carefully cleaned with a
special detergent for stainless steel. The detergent must not contain acid substances (chloride
acid, bleach, etc.) or be abrasive. Alternatively the chamber can be washed with warm soapy
water or warm water and a drop of vinegar. Rinse well and dry with a soft cloth.
First ignition (without food inside the oven) serves to eliminate any unpleasant smells (which are
quite normal) due to the thermal insulation heating up that covers the cooking chamber and
any oil residues from assembly of the metal parts.
After turning the power on (close the unipolar switch fitted upstream from the appliance) and
the water (open the cut-off cock), proceed as follows (see the figure of the control panel):

- press the on/off push button;

- set the time (knob “1”) at one hour (shown on the time display);

- set a temperature (knob “2”) of 270°C for the cooking chamber (shown on the
temperature display);

- check the door is closed;

- press the start/stop push button: the cooking chamber starts heating up.

When the time is up, the oven turns off automatically and the beeper sounds for 10 seconds.

Cooking techniques

There are three different cooking techniques with this oven which can be used singularly, one
after the other or combined.

3.5.1

3.5.1 3.5.1

3.5.1 Steam cooking (moist heat)

Steam cooking (moist heat)Steam cooking (moist heat)

Steam cooking (moist heat)

The climate regulation system which allows dividing the humidity production that should be set
at 100% (humidity \ continuous steam) , while the cooking chamber temperature can be set
between 105°C and 115°C.
Steam cooking is indicated where a boiled effect is required, and it has the advantage of leaving
the nutritional content of the food unchanged (the vitamins and flavour of the food are
conserved), the outer appearance (the colour is conserved, no lumps or air bubbles are formed
and the surface does not break up) and the weight is conserved, as no liquids are lost from the
food during cooking.

3.5.2

3.5.2 3.5.2

3.5.2 Convection cooking (dry heat)

Convection cooking (dry heat)Convection cooking (dry heat)

Convection cooking (dry heat)

The heating elements heat the dry air inside the cooking chamber. This heated air is evenly
distributed by the high speed of the fans. This gives an even temperature throughout the
cooking chamber and even cooking even when the oven is full.

TECNOEKA Srl _____________________________________________________________ use and instruction manual

page 16 _________________________________________________________________________________________

This means that different types of food can be cooked on the various shelves (as long as they
need the same cooking temperature) without flavours and smells being mixed together.
The cooking chamber temperature can be set between 50°C and 270°C.
Besides evenly browning the food without having to turn it, convection cooking can be used to
cook au gratin and is particularly convenient for rapid defreezing, for sterilising preserves and
drying mushrooms and fruit.

st heat)st heat)

st heat)

This type of cooking exploits the combination of dry and moist heat. They are dosed by the
climate regulation system which can divide, in percentage, the production of steam and the
production of dry heat (drying the cooking chamber), optimising the cooking climate for each
dish.
The cooking chamber temperature can be set between 50°C and 270°C.
The fact of using a hot-moist climate inside the cooking chamber with variable temperature and
moisture levels, is the most convenient and efficient way of cooking: cooking times are reduced,
the surface of the foods remains soft and does not form a crust, there is little weight loss and
the fatty mass is reduced.
The special hot-moist climate at low temperatures is ideal for re-conditioning food.

3.6.1 Core temperature cooking technique

Core temperature cooking techniqueCore temperature cooking technique

Core temperature cooking technique

The temperature can be set inside the core of the food to be cooked, using the special needle
core probe that is supplied with the oven. The probe must be pushed into the centre of the
food in the thickest part, avoiding the bones. Place the food inside the cooking chamber and
pull out the thermal probe lead and close the oven door. The probe plug must be plugged into

the special socket (see Fig. 1) at the bottom of the control panel. Press the push button to

select the core cooking temperature (led alight on ) between 0°C and 100°C using knob no.
“2”, the temperature is shown on the temperature display.

When a cooking cycle is started with a core probe stage included (the time display shows the
wording “Prob”), when the set temperature is reached inside the food the cooking cycle passes
onto the next stage no matter what time has been set. If the core probe is activated within any
of the four stages, with the other three deactivated, the cooking cycle finishes automatically
when the set temperature inside the food is reached, no matter what time has been set.

Cooking with the core probe can be graduated over the four stages (for very delicate cooking)
and, for each stage, the temperature and the climate inside the cooking chamber can be set
besides the temperature inside the food.

As the thermal probe is a needle which can easily be removed or broken, we advise setting the
cooking time for the stage that it is used in.

If the probe is connected and operating, the stage finishes when the set temperature is reached;
otherwise, if the probe is not connected or is broken, the stage finishes at the set time.

If the probe is not connected or is broken, when the cooking cycle starts the beeper sounds
intermittently for 10 seconds, the time display shows the flashing message “Prob” and the

previously set temperature disappears from the temperature display (

---- ---- ---- ).

The core temperature of the food can also be measured (when no temperature has been set): it
is sufficient to slide the needle probe into the food.

In this case, when the cooking cycle has been started, when the push button is pressed the
temperature is selected automatically (shown on the temperature display) that is measured by
the probe (led alight next to

).

Warning

WarningWarning

Warning: Before removing the food from the oven after cooking with the core needle probe.

Carefully remove the hot probe from the cooked food, taking care not to leave it
hanging out of the cooking chamber as it could cause burns.
We advise leaving it to cool down before using it again – to avoid damaging pricks in
the food.
To prevent any irreparable damage to the thermal piercing probe (core probe) do not
use it in high temperature cooking ABOVE 230°C, and ensure that the probe lead is
not touching any hot metal surfaces inside the oven.

T) function

This function allows keeping the difference (∆T) between the temperature inside the food
(measured by the needle probe) and the temperature in the cooking chamber constant. This
means that the temperature in the cooking chamber is the sum of the temperature inside the

food and a fixed “∆T” temperature that is set by the user (see the graph).

The Delta

-

T temperature is the difference between the

temperature inside the food and the temperature in the
cooking chamber

In practical terms, there is a gradual increase of the temperature in the cooking chamber, with a
constant difference with respect to the temperature inside the food which, thanks to this
constant difference, is cooked slowly and gently (in meat the proteins are protected, as no
surface tension is caused by the rapid formation of the crust).
After selecting the temperature inside the food (core temperature) and setting the level (knob

“2”) press the push button again to select the “∆T” function (the led next to the ∆∆∆∆T

lights up) and to set the temperature (knob “2”) (on the basis of our experience this
temperature should be between 30°C and 70°C).

When the “∆T” function is used for cooking, the method for using the needle probe is the
same as that described in paragraph 3.6.1.

Cleaning the cooking chamber

For hygienic reasons, it is good practice to clean the cooking chamber at the end of each
cooking cycle, otherwise it should be cleaned at least once at the end of each day’s use.

For easier cleaning, remove the side grills by unscrewing the 4 fixing screws (hold the reeded
nut between your thumb and forefinger and turn it in an anti-clockwise direction) remove the
drainage plug on the bottom and proceed as follows:

- spray a special degreasing product for stainless steel on the external walls, on the fan
casing (do not spray it through the fan grids) and on the glass inside the door;

- leave the product to work for approximately 20 minutes with the door closed;

- turn the oven on to 70-80°C;

- run a cycle with maximum steam (100%) for around 15 minutes;

- when the cycle is complete turn the oven off, leave the cooking chamber to cool down
and rinse well;

- Dry with a soft cloth or run a heating cycle, with the temperature at 150-160°C for
about 10 minutes (the cycle can be repeated if necessary).

The side grills and drainage plug must be cleaned separately and then replaced.
When cleaning is terminated, leave the oven door slightly ajar.

The door seal has a rigid profile with fixing tabs. The profile must be fitted into the guide on the
face of the cooking chamber.
To change the seal, remove the old one from the guide by pulling hard at the four corners.
Clean any dirt from the guide and introduce the new seal (to make this operation easier, we
advise dampening the seal profile with soapy water).

Further to Directive 2002/96/EC, the symbol of the crossed rubbish skip on

the appliance means that at the end of its life, the product must be
disposed of separately from the other rubbish. The user must hand the
appliance to a specialised waste collection centre for electric and electronic
equipment.

The separate collection of the rubbish and subsequent treatment, r

ecovery and disposal help to

produce other equipment using recycled materials, reducing the negative effects on the
environment and public health, which would be caused by incorrect management of the
rubbish.
Should the user dispose of the product abusively, administrative sanctions would be applied.
