Causes of damage
Caution!
–Do not place anything on the cooking compartment
floor. Do not cover it with aluminium foil. A build-up
of heat could damage the appliance.
The cooking compartment floor must always be kept
clear. Always place ovenware in a perforated
cooking container or on a wire rack.
–Aluminium foil in the cooking compartment must not
come into contact with the door panel. This could
cause permanent discolouration of the door panel.
–We recommend you install a descaling system for
hard mains water. You can inquire with your
waterworks to obtain information about your mains
water.
–Ovenware must be heat and steam resistant.
Silicone baking tins are not suitable for combined
operation with steam.
–Use only original accessories in the cooking
compartment. Rusting material (such as serving
platters or knives and forks) can cause corrosion in
the oven interior.
–Use original small parts (e.g. knurled nuts) only.
Order small parts from our after-sales service if
these should be lost.
–Do not store moist food in the closed cooking
compartment for long periods. It can lead to
corrosion in the cooking compartment.
–Salt, spicy sauces (e.g. ketchup or mustard) or
salted dishes (e.g. cured roast) contain chloride
and acids. These corrode the surfaces of stainless
steel. Always remove residues immediately.
–Fruit juice may leave stains in the cooking
compartment. Always remove fruit juice immediately
and wipe the cooking compartment with a moist and
dry cloth.
–Improper care of the appliance may lead to
corrosion in the cooking compartment. Refer to the
care and cleaning instructions in the instruction
manual. Clean the cooking compartment each time
you use it as soon as the appliance has cooled
down. After cleaning the cooking compartment, use
the drying programme to dry it.
–Do not detach the door seal. The appliance door
will no longer close properly if the door seal is
damaged. The fronts of adjacent units could be
damaged. Have the door seal replaced.

Environmental protection
Your new appliance is particularly energy-efficient. Here
you can find tips on how to save even more energy when
using the appliance, and how to dispose of your
appliance properly.
Saving energy
▯Open the appliance door as little as possible while
cooking.
▯Use dark, black lacquered or enamelled baking tins
for baking. They absorb the heat particularly well.
▯It is best to bake several cakes one after the other.
The oven will still be hot. This reduces the baking
time for the second cake. You can also place 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.
Environmentally-friendly disposal
Dispose of packaging in an environmentally-friendly
manner.
This appliance is labelled in accordance with
European Directive 2012/19/EU concerning
used electrical and electronic appliances
(waste electrical and electronic equipment WEEE). The guideline determines the
framework for the return and recycling of used
appliances as applicable throughout the EU.

Operating the appliance
Cooking compartment
The cooking compartment has four rack levels. The rack
levels are counted from the bottom up.
Note: When steaming, defrosting, dough proving and
reheating, you can use up to three rack levels at a time
(levels 2, 3 and 4). Only one level can be used for
baking; level 2 is designated for this (or level 1 for high
baking tins).
Inserting accessories
The wire rack and the perforated cooking container
feature a locking function. The locking function prevents
the accessories from tilting when they are pulled out.
The accessories must be inserted into the cooking
compartment correctly for the tilt protection to work
properly. When removing accessories, you must raise
them slightly.
When inserting the wire rack, check
▯that the engaging lug (a) is pointing upward
▯that the safety bar on the wire rack is at the back

During the steam removal process, cold water is
introduced into the cooking compartment. This cools
the cooking compartment down and the steam
condenses on the cooking compartment wall. When you
then open the cooking compartment door, only a little
steam escapes.
m Risk of scalding!
After opening the cooking compartment door, hot water
may drip down from it.
Steam removal only works with the following types of
heating and if the temperature in the cooking
compartment is less than 130 °C:
▯Hot air + 100% humidity
▯Hot air + 80% humidity
▯Hot air + 60% humidity
▯Full surface grill setting 1 + humidity
▯Full surface grill setting 2 + humidity
▯Sous-vide cooking
Proceed as follows:
Touch the ¡ symbol.Steam removal takes approximately
20 seconds. During this time, the heating is off.
Misting
Misting brings additional steam to the oven interior. You
can add moisture to food while cooking (e.g. bread,
bread rolls).

The cleaning programme removes stubborn dirt.A
cleaning cartridge (a) is screwed into the top of the
cooking compartment. The cooking compartment is
cleaned, rinsed and dried fully automatically. The drain
filter (b) must remain inserted in the cooking
compartment floor while the cleaning programme is in
progress.
The cleaning programme takes 3 hours 45 minutes from
beginning to end.
With normal use, we recommend cleaning the appliance
with the cleaning programme four times a year.
Depending on how you use your appliance, more
frequent cleaning may be necessary.
1Turn the drain filter anti-clockwise and remove it.
2Remove any food residues from the drain filter.
3Rinse it out under running water. If it is very dirty,
wash it in the dishwasher.
4Insert the drain filter and turn it clockwise as far as
it will go.
Never operate the combi-steam oven without the drain
filter in place.
Enamelled cooking compartment
The enamel in the cooking compartment will become
lighter in colour with use. The change in colour does not
affect its useful properties. Do not attempt to remove
the discolouration by scouring with abrasive agents.
If there are a lot of food residues on the panels of the
cooking compartment, do not allow them to burn on.
Start the cleaning programme as soon as you have
finished using the appliance.
You need special cleaning cartridges for the cleaning
programme. These are available from the after-sales
service or from our online shop (CL S10 040 set with
four cleaning cartridges, part number 00311703).
The cleaning cartridges can only be used once and
cannot be refilled. Do not use any other cleaning
agents.
Caution!
Damage to the cooking compartment: Use cleaning
cartridges for the cleaning programme only. Never place
cleaning cartridges in the cooking compartment when it
is hot or heat them up in the cooking compartment.

Settings table and tips
Notes
‒The cooking times specified are intended as a
guide. The actual cooking time depends on the
quality and temperature of the food before cooking,
and the weight and thickness of the food to be
cooked.
‒Always preheat the appliance. This will provide the
best cooking results.
The cooking times specified refer to a preheated
appliance. Add approximately 5 minutes to these
times if you are placing food into the appliance
without preheating it.
‒The figures given refer to average quantities of food
for four people. If you wish to prepare a larger
quantity of food, you should allow for a longer
cooking time.
‒Use the cookware specified. If you use other
cookware, the cooking times may be longer or
shorter.
‒If you have not made a particular dish before, use
the shortest time specified to start with. If
necessary, you can always cook the food for longer.
‒Open the cooking compartment door of the
preheated oven for a short time only and do not
take too long to place your food inside the
appliance.
‒When using only one cooking container, place it in
the appliance at the second level from the bottom.
‒When steaming, defrosting, dough proving and
reheating, you can use up to three rack levels at a
time (rack levels 2, 3 and 4 from the bottom). This
will not cause any transfer of flavours. 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.
‒Only one level can be used for baking; the second
level from the bottom is designated for this.
‒Do not allow the food to come into contact with the
cooking compartment, grease filter or back panel of
the oven.
‒The combi-steam oven must be able to shut
properly. To ensure that this is possible, keep the
seal surfaces clean at all times.
‒Do not place too many items close together on wire
racks or containers. This is to allow optimal steam
circulation.
‒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
▯Vegetables are prepared more gently in steam than
in boiling water. Their taste, color and consistency
are preserved better. Vitamins and ingredients that
are soluble in water are not washed out. As the
steam oven operates without pressure at only
100°C, food is prepared considerably more gently
than in a pressure cooker, for example.
▯All data refers to 1 kg of cleaned vegetables.

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 62-65 °C after cooking. This
is also the ideal cooking temperature.
▯Do not season the fish with salt until it is fully
cooked. This ensures that the natural flavour is
retained and that less water is drawn out of the fish.
cooking many types of fish.In this operating mode,
the cooking compartment is hermetically sealed
and the moisture counteracts the drying effects of
the hot air, which is used in conventional
cooking.The optimal conditions can be achieved for
any type of food thanks to the variable humidity
control system.
▯The cooking times listed are intended as a guide
only, and depend heavily on the temperature of the
meat at the start of cooking and on how long the
meat was seared for. Use the core temperature
probe so that you can monitor the core temperature
more easily. Information and instructions, as well as
optimal target temperatures, can be found in the
section entitled 'Core temperature probe'.

unperforated base beneath it. Pour a little water
into the unperforated cooking insert to prevent the
meat from burning on. You can also add vegetables,
wine, spices and herbs to it to make a tasty base for
a sauce.
▯If you want the meat to be rare or medium rare,
open the door when the temperature reaches 5 °C
below the required core temperature and wait until
the target temperature is reached. This prevents
overcooking and allows the meat the necessary
time to rest.
▯Time to rest: Allow the meat to rest for 5 minutes on
a wire rack after cooking. This gives the meat a
chance to "relax". The meat juices begin to circulate
less, and when the meat is cut, less juice is lost.

Meat/poultry – low-temperature cooking
▯Meat seared at a high temperature develops as it
cooks for an extended period at a low temperature.
This gives the meat an even, delicate pink colour
throughout (other than a very thin edge) and makes
it extraordinarily succulent. You do not need to turn
the meat during cooking or pour any liquid over it.
▯The cooking times listed are intended as a guide
only, and depend heavily on the temperature of the
meat at the start of cooking and on how long the
meat was seared for. Use the core temperature
probe so that you can monitor the core temperature
more easily. Information and instructions, as well as
optimal target temperatures, can be found in the
section entitled 'Core temperature probe'.
▯Take the meat out of the refrigerator 1 hour before
you begin preparing it.
▯For food hygiene reasons, sear the meat briefly on
all sides at a high temperature in the frying pan
before cooking it. This gives the meat a crust, which
prevents the meat juices from escaping and
produces the kind of flavour characteristic of fried
meat.
▯Season with care: Because the meat develops as it
cooks slowly, all of the flavours become more
intense.
▯When game and horse meat is cooked at low
temperatures, its flavour becomes stronger than
when prepared the conventional way.
▯Use "Low-temperature cooking" mode › . In this
mode, any moisture escaping from the food remains
in the cooking compartment and prevents the food
from drying out.
▯Please note that the core temperature of the food
cannot be higher than the temperature inside the
cooking compartment. As a rule of thumb, the
temperature that is set in the cooking compartment
should be 10 - 15 °C above the required core
temperature.
▯Towards the end of the cooking time, you can
reduce the temperature to 60 °C. This will allow
you to extend the cooking time (e.g. if your guests
are going to be late). If you wish to pause cooking,
the temperature in the cooking compartment must
be no higher than the required core temperature.
This means that large items can remain in the
cooking compartment for 1 - 1.5 hours and small
items can remain there for 30 - 45 minutes.

Poultry
▯The moisture present when the appliance is
operating in 'Combination' mode prevents food
from drying out, which is important for poultry in
particular. At the same time, the high temperatures
make the surface brown and crispy. The hot steam
is able to transfer twice as much heat as
conventional hot air, and reaches all parts of the
food. This allows a chicken to be evenly browned
and crispy all round, while the breast meat remains
tender and succulent.

Sous-vide cooking
Sous-vide cooking is a method of cooking under a
vacuum at low temperatures between 50 - 95 C and in
100% steam.
Sous-vide cooking is a gentle, low-fat method of
preparing meat, fish, vegetables and desserts. A
vacuum-packing machine is used to heat-seal the food in
a special air-tight, heat-resistant cooking bag.
The protective envelope retains the nutrients and
flavours. 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
m 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:
▯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.
▯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
heat-resistant 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 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 the 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.
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,
top-quality food. This is the only way to guarantee a
consistent cooking result that delivers impeccable
flavour.
Preparation
Sous-vide cooking prevents flavours from escaping,
intensifying the food's natural flavour. Please note that
the usual quantities of seasoning and condiments, such
as herbs, spices and garlic, will have a much greater
effect on the flavour. 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 knob of
butter and a little salt and pepper. Generally, the fact
that the food's natural flavours intensify during cooking
is sufficient on its own to produce a flavourful 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 onto the rack and
underneath the perforated cooking container containing
the hot food.
44
Page 45
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 flavours you would expect from frying, without
overcooking it.You can achieve a particularly good
result using a teppan yaki or under the grill. Important:
Dab the meat with a tea 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 flavours 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.

Grilling
▯If required, you can increase the degree of
browning on the food using the various grill
functions.
▯Use slide-in levels 1 - 3 only for operating modes
that use the full surface grill. Always make sure the
appliance door is closed when you are grilling food.
▯Use the different slide-in levels to achieve the
required level of browning. If you place the food on
the first level from the bottom, it will be lightly
browned; if you place it on the third level from the
bottom, it will be dark brown in colour.

Baking
▯Using the steam oven, you can prepare your baked
items with the optimum humidity:
‒ a | Hot air + 0% humidity:
moisture can escape in the case of fruit cakes
and quiche. This mode corresponds to hot air in
the conventional oven.
‒ ` | Hot air + 30% humidity:
mixed cake does not dry out. The intrinsic
humidity in a food cannot escape from the oven
interior.
‒ _ - \ | Hot air + 60 - 100% humidity:
puff pastry and yeast-risen pastries become
looser on the inside and crispy on the outside
with a gloss.
▯You can only bake on one level in the steam oven.
Insert the unperforated cooking container into the
second level. When using a high baking tin, place it
on the wire rack, which you then insert in the first
level.
▯Misting brings additional steam to the food during
baking with Hot air + 0% humidity or with Hot air +
30% humidity when touching the e symbol. Use the
misting function for example when baking bread at
the beginning of the baking time. The bread will
increase in volume and will get a crispy crust.
solid180 - 20080 - 10015 - 25Another very good way of baking bread rolls is
to preheat the appliance to 220 °C at 30%
humidity. After placing the items to be baked
into the appliance, inject additional steam once
or twice, and after 5 minutes, switch back to 0%
humidity and 190 °C.

Defrosting
▯In the steam oven you can gently and evenly defrost
deep frozen food faster than at room temperature.
▯Use the "Defrosting" mode W to do this.
▯The specified defrosting times are only a
recommendation. The time it takes to defrost
depends on the size and weight of the frozen food:
freeze your food flatly or individually. This shortens
the defrosting time.
▯Remove the packaging before defrosting.
▯Defrost only the quantity you need for preparation.
▯Remember: once defrosted, food will not keep for
as long and spoils more quickly than fresh food.
Immediately process defrosted food and cook it
thoroughly.
▯After half of the defrosting time, turn meat or fish
over. Separate frozen pieces of food such as
berries or bits of meat. It is not necessary to fully
defrost fish. It will be sufficiently thawed if the
tissue is soft enough to absorb the spices.
m Health risk!
When defrosting food from animal sources, you must
remove the liquid that escapes during defrosting. It
must never come into contact with other food. Bacteria
could be transferred.
Slide the unperforated cooking container 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 container in hot
soapy solution or in a dishwasher.
After defrosting, operate the steam oven for 15 minutes
using Hot air at 180°C.

Preparing yoghourt
▯Even yoghurt can be prepared in the combi-steam

▯Heat pasteurised milk to 90 °C on the hob to
prevent the yoghurt cultures from being overcome
by any unwanted microbes. Ultra-heat treated milk
(UHT milk) does not need to be heated. (Please
note: If you use cold milk to make yoghurt, the
incubation time will be longer).
▯Important! Allow the milk to cool to 40 °C in a water
bath so that the yoghurt cultures are not destroyed.
▯Stir some natural yoghurt with identified yoghurt
cultures under the milk (1 - 2 teaspoons of yoghurt
per 100 ml).
▯When using yoghurt starter, follow the instructions
on the packet.
▯Pour the yoghurt into washed jars.
▯You can sterilise the washed jars in your combi-

Preparing bulky food
Acrylamide in foodstuffs
▯To prepare bulky food items, you can remove the
side slide-in racks.
▯To do this, undo the knurled nuts at the front of the
slide-in racks, and pull the slide-in racks out
towards you.
▯Place the rack directly onto the bottom of the
cooking compartment and place the food or
roasting dish onto the rack. Do not place the food
or roasting dish directly onto the bottom of the
cooking compartment.
Which foods are affected?
Acrylamide is mainly produced in grain and potato
products that are heated to high temperatures, such as
crisps, chips, toast, bread rolls, bread, fine baked goods
(biscuits, gingerbread, cookies).
Tips for keeping acrylamide to a minimum when preparing
food
GeneralKeep cooking times as short as possible.
Cook food until it is golden brown, but not
too dark. Large, thick pieces of food contain less acrylamide.
BakingWith hot air at max. 180 °C.
BiscuitsEgg or egg yolk reduces the production of
acrylamide. Spread out a single layer
evenly on the baking tray.
Oven
Chips
Cook at least 400 g at once on a baking
tray so that the chips do not dry out.
