2. General

Depressurised steam cooking involves cooking food with a combination of steam and hot air. Gentle steam cooking at temperatures of between 40°C – 100°C optimally preserves vitamins and minerals as well as maintaining colours and natural aromas. Food does not dry out and nor will it burn or stick. Since only a relatively small amount of water needs to be heated, steam cooking means that a great deal of time and energy can be saved. Depressurised steam cooking takes place at temperatures of between 40 °C and 100 °C, thus making it easy to cook food just as it is required. The climatic sensor steams the food in just the right conditions, irrespective of the quantity of food being cooked. Instead of being destroyed, vitamins and minerals are largely preserved. Flavour, colour and consistency are maintained – food does not lose its structure. There is therefore almost no need to add salt and spices. To sum up: cooking with steam makes conscious, healthy eating possible without any extra effort. The steam cooker provides excellent possibilities in combination with the ökotherm
It is particularly when meat is being cooked that the oven becomes dirty due to squirting juices. Dirt which has become dried can be removed more easily if the cooker, prior to cleaning, is operated with the “steam” cooking mode at a temperature of 100 °C for approximately 30 minutes, thus softening any soiling. After being used for some time the oven will take on a golden colour.

The appliance must be disconnected on being connected, on carrying out repairs and when changing
a bulb. Disconnect the shock-proof plug or switch off the safety fuse.
Full protection against accidental contact must be guaranteed on instalment.
The appliance is ready to be plugged in and may only be connected to a shockproof socket which
has been installed according to specifications. Plug installation, the exchanging of terminal wires and zero conductors or replacement of the connecting wire may only be carried out by a qualified electrician under observance of the relevant regulations.
Should the plug not be accessible subsequent to installation, a universal disconnection device with a
contact clearance of at least 3 mm must be available at the installation point in order to fulfil relevant safety regulations.
The built-in cupboard for the combi-steam cooker must be heat resistant up to 100 °C. This applies
in particular to veneers, overlapping edge bands, plastic surfaces, adhesives and varnishes. Adjacent kitchen unit front panels must be heat resistant up to at least 70 °C.
It is essential to instal the appliance horizontally on a board which is level and stable. The board may
not bend.
Should the kitchen unit not be attached to the wall it must be screwed on with a standard commercial
angle.

The amount of scaling is determined as two measured variables, namely the temperature of the heating spiral and the conductance of the level sensor. Scaling on the tubular heating element of the evaporator increases the readings taken on the heating spiral temperature sensor. Scaling is tolerated up to a maximum degree with some difference above the boiling temperature of the water. Until the clear text display gives an indication the permissible maximum degree of scaling must have been exceeded for some time (5 times or approx. 200 operating hours).

5.2 Level sensor (point gauge)

Scaling, initially primarily at the top of the level sensor, lowers the gauged conductance level of the water. Scaling is tolerated up to a maximum degree of conductance. Until the clear text display gives an indication, the permissible maximum degree of scaling must have been exceeded for some time (5 times or approx. 200 operating hours). If one of the measured variables exceeds the maximum permissible reading, the clear text display will indicate “descale”. Once the indication has appeared the appliance can continue to operate with steam. However, the effect of the evaporator is minimized when scaling increases.
Since soft water or a domestic descaling device may result in the limestone sensor not actuating, after a certain number of hours of operation and for reasons of hygiene the clear text display will require the user to descale the system. In order to be able to recognise the water level in the evaporator by means of the level sensor, the average result of 80 readings during a period of 2 sec. (software) is deducted.

5.3.1 Water inlet

If, during a certain period, no water is recognised in the evaporator on filling, the supply of water is discontinued and the clear text display will indicate “Fill up with water”. The following may be the cause of a faulty water supply:
no water or too little water in the water tank
a faulty supply pump or hoses which are kinked or defect
a defect or scaled level sensor

5.3.2 Emptying

In the case of all of the operating modes, emptying is carried out automatically after the OFF button has been pressed or after the cooking time has expired or after completion of steam dissipation, apart from during pure hot air operation. Firstly the water temperature in the evaporator is determined, and if this exceeds a certain level, water is then pumped out of the water tank into the evaporator by means of the supply pump, up to level recognition by the level sensor, plus a certain follow-on time. This procedure is carried out for the purpose of thermal protection of the discharge pump. Pumping off the water with the discharge pump is also regulated by means of level recognition by the level sensor and a certain follow-on time. Should emptying of the evaporator not be carried out within this maximum period of time, two more attempts will be made. Should it still not be possible to pump off water, the clear text display will indicate “contact F8 service” (emptying faulty). An essential marginal condition for pumping off the water in the evaporator is a water temperature below a certain level. Should it not be possible to cool the water in the evaporator down to this temperature – because there is insufficient water in the water tank or because the water in the water tank is too warm – the water will not be pumped off. It will only be pumped off when it has cooled itself down to this temperature (this may well take more than 30 minutes!). The appliance is still ready for operation during this period. During this cooling-down process, the clear text display will indicate “water is being pumped off”. Should, shortly before completion of steam operation, a completely full water tank be supplied with more water, the water tank may become overfilled on pumping off.
