Operating modes
▪ Manual cooking
▪ Automatic cooking
In the manual cooking mode, individual cooking programs and equipment
functions can be actuated directly. The various types of cooking and equip-
ment functions can be adapted individually.
In the automatic cooking mode, stored cooking programs can be actuated
and adapted as necessary.
When using the start time delay, temperatures that promote the growth of
harmful microorganisms on the food being cooked can occur in the cooking
zone. Observe food processing regulations.
Types of cooking
▪ Steaming
▪ Hot air
▪ Combisteaming
▪ Regeneration
Steaming is a type of cooking in which the food to be cooked is cooked gen-
tly with the aid of steam in a temperature range of 30°C (86°F) to 130°C
(266°F).
Hot air is a type of cooking in which the food to be cooked is cooked without
additional moisture in a temperature range of 30°C (86°F) to 300°C (572°F).
Combisteaming is a type of cooking in which large roasts, casseroles and
baked goods can be cooked in a temperature range of 30°C (86°F) to
250°C (482°F).
Regeneration is a type of cooking in which the food to be cooked can be
kept warm and prepared in a temperature range of 30°C (86°F) to 150°C
(302°F).
Expanded cooking functions
Expanded cooking functions can be used to adapt individual cooking steps
to the particular food being cooked.
The following expanded cooking functions are available:
▪ Manual humidification
▪ Start time delay
▪ Preheating
Manual humidification allows the cooking zone humidity to be increased dur-
ing operation.
Manual humidification can be used with all types of cooking.
The start time delay can be used to set a waiting period until the program
starts.
This function can be started manually as necessary.
In this way, bottlenecks in production and preparation can be avoided.
The prepared food can be loaded into the unit and the desired cooking pro-
gram selected.
For many cooking programs such as baking, for instance, the correct starting
temperature is important.
The preheating function can be used to warm the cooking zone to the cor-
rect starting temperature.
Core temperature measurement
When using core temperature measurement, the temperature inside the food
being cooked is measured by means of a sensor.
The core temperature sensor measures the core temperature at one or more
points, depending on the version. The temperature measured at the coldest
spot is used to control the cooking process.
As soon as the target core temperature has been reached, the cooking pro-
cess is ended automatically or, in the case of a multi-step cooking program,
advances to the next cooking step.
The use of core temperature measurement offers the following benefits:
▪ Reduced energy and water consumption
▪ No overcooking
▪ Less weight lost by the food being cooked
The following core temperature sensors are available:
Core temperature measurement with 1- or 4-point core temperature sensor
▪ 1-point core temperature sensor
Sous-vide core temperature
sensor
▪ 4-point core temperature sensor (optional)
Core temperature measurement with Sous-Vide core temperature sensor
▪ Sous-vide core temperature sensor (optional)
HACCP log
All cooking steps are recorded with a log number in the HACCP log.
A single log or several logs can be exported in a certain area.
The data are exported via the USB port.
USB port
The unit is equipped with a USB port (USB 2.0).
HACCP logs can be exported to the USB flash drive and archived on an ex-
ternal PC as necessary.
WaveClean automatic cleaning (optional)
With WaveClean automatic cleaning, the cooking zone is cleaned with the
aid of a cleaning cartridge intended specifically for the program and then
rinsed clean.
