Environmental protection
Environmental protecti on
Unpack the appliance and dispose of the packaging in
an environmentally friendly manner.
Saving energy
▯ Open the appliance door as little as possible while
cooking.
▯ Use dark, black-painted or enamelled baking forms.
These absorb the heat particularly well.
▯ It is best to bake several cakes in succession. The
steam oven is still warm. This shortens the baking time
for the second cake. You can also slide in two loaf tins
next to each other.
▯ For longer cooking times, you can switch off the
steam oven 10 minutes before the end of the cooking
time and you can use the residual heat to finish
cooking.
▯ When steaming, you can cook simultaneously on
several levels. If dishes require different cooking
times, insert the dishes that require the longest time
first.

moisture escaping from the food remains in the
oven cavity and prevents the food from drying out.
Convection: For cakes, biscuits and bakes.
The fan in the back panel of the oven distributes
the heat evenly throughout the oven cavity.
Low-temperature cooking for meat.
Gentle slow cooking for a particularly tender
result.
Cooking under a vacuum at low temperatures
between 125 - 200° F (50 - 95°C) and 100%
steam: Suitable for meat, fish, vegetables and
desserts.
A vacuum-sealing machine uses heat to hermetically seal the food in a special heat-resistant

time at 450° F (230 °C). For broiling vegetable
skewers and prawn skewers at 360° F (180 °C).
Proofing: For yeast dough and sourdough.
The dough rises considerably more quickly than
at room temperature. Convection and steam are
combined so that the surface of the dough does
not dry out.
The optimal temperature setting for yeast dough
is 100° F (38 °C).
For vegetables, meat, fish and fruit.
The moisture transfers the heat to the food, gently defrosting it without impairing its quality. The
food does not dry out or lose its shape.
For cooked food and baked goods.
Cooked food is gently reheated without affecting
its quality. The steam ensures that the food does
not dry out.

Core temperature probe
Core temperature probe
The core temperature probe makes it possible to cook
with exact precision. It measures the temperature inside
the food being cooked. When the required core
temperature has been reached, the probe switches off
automatically, ensuring that all food is cooked perfectly.
The core temperature probe is damaged at temperatures
above 480°F (250°C). Therefore, only ever use it in your
appliance at a maximum temperature setting of 445°F
(230°C).
9WARNING
Risk of electric shock!
Use of a wrong core temperature probe can
damage the insulation. Use only the core
temperature probe intended for this appliance.
9WARNING
Meat: Insert the core temperature probe at an angle from
above as far as it will go into the meat.
For more than one piece of meat, insert the core
temperature probe into the middle of the thickest piece.
Poultry: Insert the core temperature probe as far as it will
go into the thickest point in the breast. Depending on its
structure, insert the core temperature probe into the
poultry crossways or lengthways. With poultry, make sure
that the tip of the core temperature probe does not
protrude into the cavity in the middle of the bird.
Risk of burns!
The oven interior and the core temperature probe
become very hot. Use oven mitts to plug and
unplug the core temperature probe.
Only use the core temperature probe supplied. You can
purchase it as a spare part from Customer Service or
from the online shop.
When using the core temperature probe, never place the
food on the top shelf position in the oven.
After use, always remove the core temperature probe
from the oven cavity. Never store it inside the oven cavity.
After each use, clean the core temperature probe with a
damp cloth. Do not clean in the dishwasher.
Inserting the core temperature probe
into the food
Insert the core temperature probe into the food before
you place the food in the oven cavity.
The core temperature probe has three measuring points.
Insert the core temperature probe as far as possible. Th
core temperature probe must not be inserted in the fat or
be touching the ovenware or bones.
Fish: Insert the core temperature probe behind the head
as far as it will go towards the spine. Place the whole fish
onto the wire rack and prop it up in the swimming
position using half a potato.
Turning the food: If you want to turn the food, do not
remove the core temperature probe. Once you have
turned the food, check that the core temperature probe is
correctly positioned in the food.
If you remove the core temperature probe during
operation of the appliance, all settings are reset and you
have to apply them again.

9CAUTION
Damage to the core temperature probe:
The core temperature probe may be damaged if the
distance between the grill heating element and the
core temperature probe is too small. Make sure
that the distance between the grill heating element
and the core temperature probe or the cable of the
core temperature probe is a few centimeters. The
meat may expand during the cooking process.
9CAUTION
Damage to the core temperature probe:
Do not trap the cable of the core temperature
probe in the appliance door.
1. Insert the food to cook in the oven cavity with a core
temperature probe inserted. Insert the core
temperature probe into the socket in the oven cavity
and close the appliance door.
2. Turn the function selector to the desired heating type.
3. Use the rotary selector to set the oven cavity
temperature.
4. Touch the + symbol. Use the rotary selector to
change the set core temperature for the food and
confirm with +.
The core temperature set must be higher than the
current core temperature.
5. The appliance heats with the set heating type.
The display indicates the current temperature, and
below that the set core temperature.
You can change the set core temperature at any time.
Once the set core temperature is reached, a signal
sounds. Cooking is automatically ended. Confirm with ™
and turn the function selector to 0.
Estimated cooking time
After preheating, if the appliance has a temperature
setting above 212° F (100 °C), when the core
temperature probe is inserted, the display shows an
estimated cooking time approx. 5–20 minutes into the
cooking time.
The estimated cooking time is continually updated. The
longer the cooking process lasts, the more precise the
estimated cooking time becomes. Do not open the
appliance door; this distorts the estimated cooking time.
The estimated cooking time is displayed in normal
operation and in the automatic program.
The current core temperature is shown in the display
when you touch the ( symbol.
The estimated cooking time display can be deactivated in
the basic settings so that the current core temperature is
shown instead.~ "Basic settings" on page 37
Notes
▯ At the beginning of the cooking time, “<59° F”
("<15°C") is displayed for 3-4 minutes for the current
core temperature.
▯ The measurable range is 59 to 210° F (15°C to
99°C). Outside the measurable range, <59°F or --°F
("<15°C" or "--°C") is displayed as the current core
temperature.
▯ If you leave the food in the cooking compartment for
some time after cooking, the core temperature will
continue to rise somewhat due to the residual heat in
the cooking compartment.
▯ If you set programs with the core temperature probe
and the cooking timer at the same time, the appliance
switches off whichever program reaches the entered
value first.
Changing the set core temperature
Touch the + symbol. Use the rotary selector to change
the set core temperature for the food and confirm with

Core temperature guidelines
Use chilled food only, not frozen food. The details given
in the table are guidelines. Results depend on the quality
and composition of the food.
For hygiene reasons, critical foodstuffs such as fish and
game should reach a core temperature of 143 - 158° F
(62 – 70 °C); for poultry and minced meat this should be
as high as 176 - 185° F (80 – 85 °C).

Notes
▯ The cooking times specified are intended as a guide.
The actual cooking times depend on the quality and
temperature of the food before cooking and the
weight and thickness of the food to be cooked.
▯ The specifications refer to average quantities for four
people. If you would like to prepare more, you should
calculate a longer cooking time.
▯ Use the cookware specified. If you use other
cookware, cooking times may be longer or shorter.
▯ If you have not made a particular dish before, use the
shortest time specified to start with. You can extend
the cooking time if necessary.
▯ Open the oven cavity door of the preheated oven for a
short time only and do not take too long to place your
food inside the appliance.
▯ When steaming, defrosting, dough proving and
reheating, you can use up to three rack levels at a time
(rack levels 1, 2 and 3 from the bottom). This will not
cause flavor to transfer. This allows fish, vegetables
and desserts to be prepared at the same time.
However, the specified cooking times may need to be
extended for large quantities of food.
▯ If you are only baking on one level, use level 2. If you
are baking on two levels at the same time, use levels 1
and 3.
▯ Do not allow the food to come into contact with the
oven cavity or the back panel of the oven.
▯ The combination steam oven must shut properly. Keep
the seal surfaces clean at all times.
▯ Do not place too many items close together on wire
racks or containers. This is to ensure an optimal
steam circulation.
▯ When cooking very cold foods and when cooking at
high temperatures, the cooking container may deform.
This deformation does not impair its performance.
When the cooking container cools down again, it
returns to its original shape.
▯ If you wish to prepare food using steam and the
appliance has been heated to over 100 °C (for
example because it has just been used for baking),
allow the appliance to cool down before steaming your
food. Otherwise, the high temperature will cause your
food to dry out.

Vegetables
Tables and tips en-us
▯ Vegetables are prepared better in steam than in
boiling water: The taste, color, and consistency are
retained better. Virtually none of the water-soluble
vitamins and nutrients are washed out. Since the
combi-steam oven works without pressure at just
212° F (100 °C), the preparation is much gentler than
in a pressure cooker, for example.
▯ All details refer to 2 lb (1 kg) washed vegetables.
▯ For steaming vegetables, use the perforated cooking
▯ Blanching takes 8–10 minutes in the pre-heated
appliance. If the vegetables or fruit will not be served
immediately, chill in ice water to prevent continued
cooking due to residual heat.

Fish
▯ Steaming is a cooking method that does not use any
fat and does not allow fish to dry out.
▯ For food hygiene reasons, fish should have a core
temperature of at least 144 - 149° F (62–65 °C) after
cooking. This is also the ideal cooking temperature.
▯ When steaming at temperatures of 195 - 212° F (90–
100 °C), no preheating is necessary. Place the dish in
the oven when it is cold and then switch on the
appliance.
▯ Do not season the fish with salt until it is fully cooked.
This will ensure that the natural flavor is retained and
that less water is drawn out of the fish.
▯ When using the perforated cooking container, you can
grease the container if the fish sticks too much.
▯ Place the unperforated cooking container on the first
level from the bottom to avoid getting fish stock on the
oven cavity surfaces.
▯ For fillets with skin, place the fish on the cooking
container or wire rack with the skin side up – this
helps to retain its texture and flavor.

Meat – cooking at higher temperatures
▯ The combination of steam and convection is the
optimal cooking process for many types of meat. The
oven cavity is hermetically sealed in this mode, the
moisture prevents the meat from drying out as in
conventional convection. Thanks to the variable
humidity control, the optimal climate can be achieved
for every type of food.
▯ The cooking times specified should be regarded as
guidelines and depend strongly on the initial
temperature of the food and the length of time
roasted. For better results, use the core temperature
probe. For notes and optimal target temperatures, see
chapter ~ "Core temperature probe" on page 30.
▯ Take the meat out of the refrigerator 1 hour before
preparation.

underneath. Put a little water in the unperforated
cooking insert to prevent burning. In addition, you can
add vegetables, wine, spices and herbs in order to
create a tasty sauce base.
▯ If you would like to cook the meat so it is medium or
rare: open the door 40° F (5°C) before the desired
core temperature is reached and wait until the target
temperature has been reached. This way you prevent
overcooking and you give the meat the necessary time
to rest.
▯ Meat's time to rest: Let the meat rest on a wire rack for
5 min. after cooking. This way, the meat can "relax."
The circulation of the meat juice slows down and there
is less loss of juice when cutting into the meat.

Meat/poultry – low-temperature cooking
▯ With low temperature cooking, the dishes are cooked
at temperatures of between 140 and 175° F (60 and
80 °C) and for a cooking time of a few minutes up to a
several hours until cooked through. This cooking
method is mainly used for meat and fish dishes. This
preserves the sensory properties (e.g. tenderness and
succulence) of the food. By heating it up gently the
meat gets evenly pink and extremely juicy but for a
very thin crusty edge. Neither turning nor basting are
required.
▯ The cooking times specified should be regarded as
guidelines and depend heavily on the initial
temperature of the food and the length of time
roasted. For better results, use the core temperature
probe. For notes and optimal target temperatures, see
chapter ~ "Core temperature probe" on page 30.
▯ Take the meat out of the refrigerator 1 hour before
preparation.
▯ For hygienic reasons, brown the meat on all sides in
the pan briefly and over high heat before cooking. This
way, the meat has a crust that prevents the juices from
escaping and provides a typical roast flavor.

▯ Season carefully: the slow resting of the meat
intensifies all flavors.
▯ With game and horse meat, the flavor is stronger with
low-temperature cooking than with a classic
preparation.
▯ Use the "Low-temperature cooking" mode › . Any
steam escaping from the food therefore remains in the
oven cavity and prevents the food from drying out.
▯ With this type of heating preheating is not necessary.
Please note that you cannot reach any core
temperatures above the oven cavity temperature. The
rule of thumb is: the set oven cavity temperature
should be 50 - 60°F (10-15 °C) above the desired
core temperature.
▯ Toward the end of the cooking time, you can reduce
the temperature to 140°F (60 °C). This way, you can
extend the cooking time (e.g. if your guests arrive
late). If you want to stop the cooking process, the oven
cavity temperature may not be higher than the desired
core temperature. Thus, large pieces can remain in
the oven cavity for 1 - 1.5 hours, small pieces for 30-45
minutes.
▯ Serve on a pre-warmed dish.

Poultry
▯ The humidity for combination operation prevents
drying out, which is essential with poultry. At the same
time, thanks to the high temperature, the surface gets
crispy and brown. The hot steam has twice as much
ability to transfer heat as conventional convection and
reaches all parts of the food. Therefore, a chicken is
browned evenly and gets crispy, yet the breast meat
remains tender and juicy.

Sous-vide cooking
Sous-vide cooking is a method of cooking under a
vacuum at low temperatures between 120 - 200°F (50 95 °C) and in 100% steam.
With this type of heating preheating is not necessary.
Sous-vide cooking is a gentle, low-fat method of
preparing meat, fish, vegetables and desserts. A vacuumpacking machine is used to heat-seal the food in a
special air-tight, heat-resistant cooking bag.
The protective envelope retains the nutrients and flavors.
The low temperatures and the direct transfer of heat
allow precisely controlled cooking in order to achieve the
desired cooking results. It is almost impossible to
overcook the food.
Portions
Use the portion sizes listed in the cooking table. For
relatively large quantities and items, the cooking time
must be adjusted accordingly.
The portions given for fish, meat and poultry correspond
to a single serving. A portion size sufficient for four
people has been selected for vegetables and desserts.
Rack levels
You can cook on up to two levels. Place the cooking
containers on levels 1 and 3 to achieve the best cooking
results. When cooking on just one level, use level 2.
Hygiene
9WARNING
Health risk!
Sous-vide cooking is a method of cooking at low
temperatures.As a result, it is important that you
always follow the application and hygiene
instructions below:

▯ Always keep work surfaces and chopping boards
clean. Use different chopping boards for different
types of food.
▯ Maintain the cold chain.Make sure that you only
interrupt it briefly to prepare the food, and then return
the food in its vacuum-sealed bag to the refrigerator
for storage before you cook it.
▯ Food is suitable for immediate consumption only.
Once the food is cooked, consume it immediately. Do
not store it after cooking – not even in the
refrigerator.It is not suitable for reheating.
Vacuum-pack bags
When using the sous-vide cooking method, only use heatresistant vacuum-pack bags designed for this purpose.
Do not cook the food in the bag you bought it in (e.g.
portions of fish). These bags are not suitable for sousvide cooking.
Vacuum sealing
Use a chamber vacuum-packing machine that can create
a vacuum of at least 99% to vacuum-seal the food. This is
the only way to achieve even heat transfer and therefore a
perfect cooking result.
Before cooking the food, check whether the vacuum in
the bag is intact. Make sure that:
▯ There is no/hardly any air in the vacuum-pack bag.
▯ The seam is perfectly sealed.
▯ There are no holes in the vacuum-pack bag. Do not
use a core temperature probe.
▯ Pieces of meat and fish that have been vacuum-sealed
together are not pressed directly against one another.
▯ As far as possible, you avoid piling up vegetables and
desserts when vacuum-sealing them.
If in doubt, place the food into a new bag and vacuumseal it again.
▯ Use only fresh, good-quality food.
▯ Wash and disinfect your hands. Use disposable
gloves or cooking/grill tongs.
▯ Take extra care when preparing critical food, such as
poultry, eggs and fish.
▯ Always thoroughly rinse and/or peel fruit and
vegetables.
Food should be vacuum-sealed at most one day before it
is cooked. This is the only way to prevent the escape of
gases from the food (e.g. from vegetables) which inhibit
the transfer of heat, or to prevent the texture of the food
from changing, and thus altering how it cooks.

Quality of the food
The quality of the cooking result is 100% influenced by
the quality of the ingredients you use. Use only fresh, topquality food. This is the only way to guarantee a
consistent cooking result that delivers impeccable flavor.
Preparation
Sous-vide cooking prevents flavors from escaping,
intensifying the food's natural flavor. Please note that the
usual quantities of seasoning and condiments, such as
herbs, spices and garlic, will have a much greater effect
on the flavor. Start off by halving the quantities you
usually use.
If the ingredients are of high quality, it is often sufficient
to enclose them in the bag with just a small piece of
butter and a little salt and pepper. Generally, the fact that
the food's natural flavors intensify during cooking is
sufficient on its own to produce a flavorful cooking result.
Do not place the vacuum-sealed food items on top of one
another or too close together in the cooking containers.
In order to ensure that the heat is distributed evenly, the
food items should not be touching. If you have more than
one vacuum-pack bag, cook on two levels.
Remove the vacuum-pack bags with care after cooking as
hot water accumulates on the bags. Place the
unperforated cooking container on the rack underneath
the perforated cooking container containing the hot food.
Dry the outside of the bag, place it into a clean,
unperforated cooking container and cut it open with
scissors.Place all of the food, along with its juices, into
the cooking container.
The food can be finished off as follows once the sous-vide
cooking stage is complete:
Meat: Flash fry at a very high temperature for a few
seconds only on each side. This gives it a nice crust and
the flavors you would expect from frying, without
overcooking it.You can achieve a particularly good result
using a teppan yaki or a grill. Important: Dab the meat
with a paper towel before placing it into hot oil, in order
to avoid fat spitting out of the pan.
Vegetables: Flash fry in a frying pan or on a teppan yaki to
give them the flavors you would expect from frying. When
frying vegetables like this, it is easy to season them or
mix them with other ingredients without them cooling
down.
Fish: Season and coat with hot butter. Since many types
of fish fall apart easily after cooking using the sous-vide
method, if you wish to flash fry it, this should be done
before the sous-vide cooking stage.
Fry the food for longer if has not been sufficiently well
cooked during the sous-vide cooking stage.
Serve the food on pre-heated plates and, if possible, with
a hot sauce or butter as sous-vide cooking takes place at
relatively low temperatures.

Broiling
▯ A total of three broil functions mean that you can
brown your food, broil it (full surface broil and air
recirculation) – or do both at the same time in a single
step (full surface broil level 1 + humidity and full
surface broil, setting 2 + humidity).
– Z | Browning with full surface broil + air
recirculation at 445° F (230 °C):
Also referred to as cooking au gratin. The last
step in a cooking process. A brown crust forms
on the surface of the food. Only takes a few
minutes. The ingredients are already pre-cooked.
– Z | Full surface broil + air recirculation at 355 -
390° F (180–200 °C):
Complete cooking process whereby the surface
is toasted. The cooking process is longer than
when browning. The ingredients must not be precooked.
– b - c Browning + broiling with full surface broil
level 1 + humidity and full surface broil level 2 +
humidity:
With these two functions, food is simultaneously
cooked and browned/two steps are carried out
with one type of heating. The steam cooks the
food, e.g. a potato gratin, and the second step
browns it.
▯ Do not broil food with the oven door open.
▯ With the full surface broil and air recirculation
function, a pre-heating time of five minutes is
sufficient. You do not need to wait until the
temperature is reached. With the full surface broil and
air recirculation function, the selected temperature
may differ from the actual temperature in the
appliance. Broiling is a rapid cooking process at high
temperatures. Consequently, for browning and
roasting, a higher temperature than is actually needed
on the surface of the food is always selected.
▯ If you use the core temperature probe with the full
surface broil with air recirculation or humidity with full
surface broil functions, make sure that the core
temperature probe is at least 2 inches (5 cm) away
from the broil element. Otherwise, the core
temperature probe may be damaged.

Baked goods
▯ With the combination steam oven, you can always
prepare your baked goods with the optimal humidity:
– a | Convection and 0% humidity:
For cake with fruit topping and quiche, excess
humidity can escape. This operation mode
corresponds to the hot air in the conventional
baking oven.
– ` | Convection and 30% humidity:
Sponge cakes do not dry out. The humidity in the
food cannot escape from the oven cavity.
– _ - \ | Convection + 60 - 100% humidity:
Puff pastry and yeast-risen pastry are fluffy inside
and crispy outside, with a gloss.
▯ If you only bake on one level, use level 2. If you are
baking on two levels at the same time, use levels 1 and
3. Insert the unperforated cooking insert at the
second level. If you are using a high baking pan, place
it on the wire rack that you insert at the first level.
▯ For misting - possible in convection mode
(0% humidity) and with humidity level 30% - humidity is
fed to the food by touching the e symbol. This
function is used for example when baking bread or
yeast cake at the beginning of the baking process. It
produces more volume and a crispier and glossier
crust.

Refreshing (warming up)
▯ The combi-steam oven creates the perfect
environment for reheating cooked food without drying
it out. The flavour and quality are virtually
indistinguishable from food that has been freshly
prepared.
▯ To use this function, select "Reheat" mode d.
▯ Do not cover the food. Do not use aluminium foil or
clingfilm.
▯ The figures listed are for portions for one person.
Larger quantities of food can also be warmed up in
the unperforated cooking insert; you will need to cook
the food for longer than the times specified in the
table.

Defrosting
▯ In the steam oven you can gently and evenly thaw deep
frozen foods faster than at in the fridge or microwave.
▯ Use the "Defrosting" mode W to do this.
▯ With this mode preheating is not necessary.
▯ The specified thawing times are for your orientation
only. The time it takes to thaw depends on the size and
weight of the frozen food: freeze your foods flatly or
individually. This shortens the thawing time.
▯ Take foods out of the packaging before thawing them.
▯ Thaw only the amount you immediately need.
▯ Remember: in certain circumstances, thawed food
does not keep so well and goes bad faster then fresh
food. Immediately process thawed food and cook it
thoroughly.
▯ After half of the thawing time, turn meat or fish over
fish or separate fragmentary frozen food such as
berries or bits of meat. Fish need not thaw fully. It
suffices if the surface is soft enough to absorb the
spices.
9WARNING
Health risk!
When thawing animal foodstuffs, it is imperative to
remove the liquid that arises during thawing. It
must never come into contact with other foodstuffs.
Germs could be transmitted.
Slide the unperforated cooking insert underneath
the food. Pour away the collected thawing liquid
from meat and poultry. Then clean the sink and
rinse with plenty of water. Clean the cooking insert
in hot soapy solution or in a dishwasher.
After defrosting, operate the steam oven for
15 minutes with Convection at 350 °F (180°C).

Preserving
▯ In combination steam ovens, you can can fruit and
vegetables with little effort.
▯ If possible, cook food immediately after purchase or
harvesting. Longer storage decreases the vitamin
content and can cause spoilage.
▯ Only use fruit and vegetables in good condition.
▯ The combination steam oven is not suited for
preserving meat.
▯ Check and clean the canning jars, rubber rings,
clamps, and springs carefully.

Preparing yoghourt
▯ You can prepare your own yogurt in the combination
steam oven.
▯ Heat pasteurized milk to 195°F (90°C) on the
cooktop in order to prevent a disturbance of the
yogurt cultures. Ultra-high-heated milk (H-milk) does
not have to be heated. (Note: if you want to make
yogurt with cold milk, the resting period is longer).
▯ Important! Leave milk cool to 105°F (40°C) in the
water bath so as not to destroy the yogurt cultures.
▯ Stir natural yogurt with active yogurt cultures into the
milk (1 - 2 teaspoons of yoghourt for every 1/2 cup /
100 ml).
▯ Leave the berries in the appliance until no more juice
appears.
▯ You can then squeeze the berries dry in a dishtowel to
preserve the last remainders of juice.

Acrylamide in foodstuffs
Which foods are affected?
Acrylamide is mainly produced in grain and potato
products that are heated to high temperatures, such as
chips, fries, toast, rolls, bread, fine baked goods
(cookies, gingerbread, Christmas spice cookies).
Tips for keeping acrylamide to a minimum when preparing food
GeneralKeep cooking times as short as possi-
ble. Cook food until it is golden
brown, but not too dark. Large, thick
pieces of food contain less acryl-
amide.
BakingWith hot air at max. 355° F (180 °C).
