1.2 About use

The appliance is intended solely for use in the
household and must not be put to any other uses.

Use the appliance to prepare meals only It must not
be used to heat up the room in which it is installed.

Only ever use the included cooking inserts or
order the special accessories.

Do not place any items in the oven compartment

that might rust. Rusty accessories will lead to further

rusting in the oven compartment!
Do not use any silver tableware in the cooking

compartment.

The cooldng compartment may become

discoloured during prolonged operation. This does

not have a detrimental influence on operability of

the appliance.
Operation is only possible when the door is closed,

otherwise there is a risk that water will spray out of
the appliance or that hot steam will come out.

The steam oven uses unpressurized steam,

therefore the door can be opened at any time
during cooking. To prevent extreme steam from
escaping when you open the door, you can

condense beforehand. Water may drip when
opening the door.

Steam may escape during operation and when
opening the door.

The _ (Heating) symbol inthe control panel goes

off as soon as the required temperature has been

reached.
Turn the "Temperature" control knob (right control

knob) to the 0 position after use.

In the event of malfunctions, first of all check
the household fuses. If the problem has nothing to
do with the power or water supply, please contact

your specialist dealer or your local Gaggenau after-

sales service.

The door window may fog up at all moisture levels
(above all at the 100 % moisture level).

Operating noise may occur in all operating modes.
Opening and closing of the air flap causes clicking

noise.
The appliance rinses automatically when switched

on if it has not been in operation for a prolonged
period of time or after a prolonged power failure

(several hours). This removes water that is left over
in the pipes.

The food being cooked must not come into contact

with the sides or the grease filter.
At set temperatures below 65°C / 150°F, the light is

switched off after a few seconds to ensure that the
halogen lamp will not additionally heat up the oven

compartment. This ensures more precise
temperature coordination. The light in the oven
compartment is switched on again for a few

seconds if you turn one of the two control knobs or
if you press a key

Calibration

(automatic boiling point-adjustment):

the boiling point of water depends on the baro-
metric pressure. The barometric pressure changes

with the altitude of the place where the appliance is

installed. During self-adjustment, the appliance
adapts itself to the pressure conditions prevailing at

the appliance's location.

The appliance cannot be operated if it has not
been calibrated!

The appliance features a descaling display.

When it flashes, this is an indication that the

appliance must be descaled. Before commencing
operation, you must enter the water hardness in

your household on the appliance.

3.4 Determining water hardness

Water hardness range 4 has been pre-entered on

the appliance. If the hardness of the water in your

household should deviate from this value, the

correct water hardness range (between 1
and 4) must be entered before commencing

operation of the appliance. You can find out
the hardness of the water in your household either

by consulting your waterworks or by using the

included test strip.

- Run water from the tap for about 20 seconds to

drain off stale water.

- Fill a glass with tap water and briefly (no more

than 1 second) dip the test strip into the water,

malting sure that all test points are wetted.

- Remove the strip from the water and shake off any
surplus water drops.

- You can read off the result after one minute.

- If your water contains lime, one or more of the test
areas is/are of a reddish colour and the others

stay light or greenish. The number of light (green)
areas defines the right water hardness range

setting on the appliance.

The test set must be used even if a water descaling

system is already installed in your household

because, depending on the descaling method, not

all scale-forming ions are removed.

Number of light Water hardness Water
(green) areas on (German hardness) hardness
