Operating modes
Manual cooking
In the manual cooking mode, individual cooking programs and equipment
functions can be actuated directly. The various cooking modes and
equipment functions can be modified individually.
Page 20

Automatic cooking (autoChef)
In the automatic cooking mode, stored cooking programs can be actuated
and adapted as necessary.
Types of cooking
Steaming
Steaming is a cooking mode where the food to be cooked is cooked gently in
steam in a temperature range of 30°C (86°F) to 130°C (266°F).
Combi-steaming
Combisteaming is a cooking mode that can be used to cook large roasts,
casseroles and baked goods in a temperature range of 30°C (86°F) to
250°C (482°F).
Hot air
Hot air is a cooking mode where the food to be cooked is cooked without
additional moisture in a temperature range of 30°C (86°F) to 250°C (482°F).
Perfection (regeneration)
Perfection is a cooking mode that can be used to prepare cooled cooked
food quickly in a temperature range of 30°C (86°F) to 150°C (482°F) and
then keep it warm.
Delta-T cooking
Delta-T cooking is a cooking mode where the cooking temperature depends
on the core temperature of the food being cooked.
The cooking temperature is always higher than the current core temperature
by the set value (Delta-T value, cooking temperature difference). The
resulting cooking time is longer than with other cooking modes.
Delta-T cooking is especially well-suited for general cooking. The food being
cooked remains tender and juicy with little weight loss.
Low-temperature cooking
Low-temperature cooking is a cooking mode where the food to be cooked is
cooked in an especially gentle manner in a temperature range of 30°C
(86°F) to 100°C (212°F).
Page 21

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.
The cooking time is considerably longer than at higher temperatures, but no
supervision is required and the cooking time can be extended considerably
without any loss in quality.
The food being cooked remains tender and juicy with little weight loss.
Baking
Baking is a cooking mode where the food to be cooked is cooked and
browned by hot air in a temperature range of 30°C (86°F) to 220°C (428°);
this opens up the texture of the food. Humidification and an associated idle
time may precede baking.
Expanded cooking functions
Expanded cooking functions can be used to modify individual cooking steps
for the particular food being cooked.
The following expanded cooking functions are available:
PerfectHold
PerfectHold is a cooking function where the prepared food is held in the unit
in a temperature range of 50°C (122°F) to 100°C (212°F) after the actual
cooking process until it is ready to be served.
Ready2Cook (preheating)
For many cooking programs such as baking, for instance, the correct starting
temperature is important.
With Ready2Cook, the cooking zone can automatically be heated or cooled
to the correct starting temperature.
Start-time preselection
The start time delay can be used to set a waiting period until the program
starts.
In this way, bottlenecks in production and preparation can be avoided.
Page 22

The prepared food can be loaded into the unit and the desired cooking
program selected.
Steam Exhaust System (SES)
This function is activated by default for all cooking programs that have a
cooking time longer than 6 minutes.
The Steam Exhaust System (SES) is activated automatically shortly before
the end of cooking.
After the cooking time, the Steam Exhaust System (SES) extracts the steam
from the cooking zone. It is then possible to open the cooking zone door
without risk of injury.
RackControl
With the expanded cooking function RackControl, different foods such as
potatoes, cauliflower, peas, carrots and meat can be cooked simultaneously
for different times.
RackControl monitors the various cooking times in one process. When one
cooking time has elapsed, a signal sounds and the food being cooked can
be removed. RackControl is ideal for rolling cooking.
FamilyMix
With the expanded cooking function FamilyMix, the appropriate cooking
programs are displayed in the
Automatic cooking (autoChef)
menu for the
currently set cooking mode. The cooking programs displayed have the same
cooking climate and an identical or shorter cooking time. Tapping the
individual suggestions transfers the cooking times for the individual products
to the RackControl function and these can then be started when desired
during the cooking process.
Manual humidification
Manual humidification allows the cooking zone humidity to be increased
during operation.
Manual humidification can be used only in the hot air and Delta-T hot air
cooking modes.
Page 23

Idle time
With the idle time expanded cooking function, a cooking step can be inserted
during which the heating and the fans are programmed to switch off for a
certain period of time.
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
process 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:
▪ 4-point core temperature sensor
or
▪ a second 4-point core temperature sensor (optional)
Core temperature measurement with a 4-point core temperature sensor
or
▪ Sous-vide core temperature sensor (optional)
Page 24

Sous-vide core temperature
sensor
Core temperature measurement with sous-vide core temperature sensor
Barcode scanner
The barcode scanner scans the barcode on the packaging of the food to be
cooked and transmits it to the unit. The unit then searches for the
appropriate cooking program for the food to be cooked. If several
appropriate cooking programs are found, they are displayed in a list.
A prerequisite is that the cooking programs are assigned a corresponding
identification when saved.
USB port
The unit is equipped with a USB port (USB 2.0).
HACCP logs can be exported via the USB port.
A wireless or corded barcode scanner (optional) can be connected to the
USB port.
HACCP logging
All cooking steps are recorded with a log number in the HACCP log.
The data are exported via the USB port.
VideoAssist
VideoAssist can be used to display videos with additional explanations
regarding operation.
