Before using for the first time
Selecting a temperature
In the cookbook, temperatures are specified in °C, but are shown on the appliance display in °F. Use the following conversion table for setting the temperature on your steam oven.
The temperature on the display can only be shown in 10 °F increments. Therefore, the temperature shown in °F does not always correspond exactly with the temperature specified in °C, i.e. the actual measurable temperature. This discrepancy in temperature is nominal and will not cause a significant difference in cooking time or results.
