4.3 Operating and cooking modes
4.3.1 Operating modes
Manual cooking
In the Manual cooking mode, individual cooking modes and
equipment functions can be actuated directly. The various types of
cooking and equipment functions can be adapted individually.
Automatic cooking (autoChef)
In the Automatic cooking mode, stored cooking programs can be
actuated and adapted as necessary.
4.3.2 Cooking modes
Steaming
Steaming is a cooking mode, in which the food to be cooked is
cooked gently by means of steam in a temperature range of 30 °C (86
°F) to 130 °C (266 °F)..
Combisteaming
Combisteaming is a cooking mode in which the steaming and hot air
cooking modes are combined. The temperature range extends from
30 °C (86 °F) to 250 °C (482 °F).
FM05-118-D
Hot air
Hot air is a cooking mode, in which the food to be cooked is cooked
without additional moisture in a temperature range of 30 °C (86 °F) to
250 °C (482 °F).
19Operating instructions
Description of the unit
Perfection (regeneration)
Perfection is a cooking mode, in which cooled food to be cooked can
be kept warm and prepared in a short time in a temperature range of
30 °C (86 °F) to 180 °C (356 °F).
Delta-T cooking
Delta-T cooking is a cooking mode, in which 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, in which the food to be
cooked is cooked particularly gently in a temperature range of 30 °C
(86 °F) to 100 °C (212 °F).
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 in which the texture of the food to be
cooked is loosened and then cooked and browned by hot air in a
temperature range of 30 °C (86 °F) to 220 °C (428 °F). Before baking
takes place, a humidifying process with its associated acting time can
be performed.
4.3.3 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:
PerfectHold
PerfectHOLD is a cooking function, in which the food to be cooked is
kept warm in the unit at 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.
20Operating instructions
FM05-118-D
INFORMATION
Description of the unit
With Ready2Cook, the cooking chamber can automatically be heated
or cooled to the correct starting temperature.
A screen-filling display gives information during the procedure about
the status.
Start-time selection
When using start time selection, temperatures that promote the growth of
harmful microorganisms on the food being cooked can occur in the cooking
chamber. Observe food processing regulations.
Start time selection can be used to set a waiting period until the
program starts.
In this way, bottlenecks in production and preparation can be avoided.
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 chamber. It is then possible to open the
cooking chamber door without risk of injury.
RackControl2
RackControl is ideal for rolling cooking.
With the extended RackControl2 cooking function, different foods
such as potatoes, cauliflower, peas, carrots and meat can be cooked
simultaneously for different times.
RackControl2 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.
The set temperature can be changed during an active cooking
process, without the process having to be stopped.
FM05-118-D
ChefsHelp
With the ChefsHelp advanced cooking program, it is possible to insert
a cooking step that assists the user further with Information in the
form of text and images at a certain time.
FlexiRack
With the FlexiRack advanced cooking function, it is possible to set a
cooking program for each shelf individually.
21Operating instructions
Description of the unit
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 steaming
Manual steaming allows the cooking chamber humidity to be
increased during operation.
Manual steaming can only be used in the Hot air and Delta T hot air
cooking modes.
The remaining time for this procedure is displayed during steaming.
After the Drop symbol has been touched, the set value is displayed
for 3 seconds.
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.
QualityControl
With the expanded QualityControl cooking function, the control
senses the amount loaded automatically and adjusts the individual
cooking parameters in autoChef. This ensures first-class quality
consistently.
Continue cooking button
The Continue cooking button lets you continue the cooking process
for a predefined period of time after the cooking program has ended.
Time2Serve
With the Time2Serve advanced cooking function, different products
are ready to be served at the same time.
The serving time is specified. The combisteamer signals when it has
reached a remaining cooking time for a product. A signal sounds and
the food to be cooked is loaded successively during an active cooking
process. The cooking time is shortened, conserving resources.
ClimaSelect plus
The ClimaSelect plus advanced cooking function optimizes the
atmosphere in the cooking chamber. Steam is added in small
amounts; the atmosphere can be controlled individually.
22Operating instructions
FM05-118-D
4.3.4 Core temperature measurement
When using core temperature measurement, the temperature inside
the food being cooked is measured by means of a core temperature
sensor.
As soon as the target core temperature is reached, the cooking
process is ended automatically or, in the case of a multi-step cooking
program, the next cooking step starts.
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
•High HACCP safety
