Installation and connection
Warning and Safety instructions
The electrical safety of this
appliance can only be guaranteed
when continuity is complete between it
and an effective earthing system which
complies with current local and national
safety regulations. It is most important
that this basic safety requirement is
present and tested regularly, and where

qualified electrician. The manufacturer
cannot be held liable for the
consequences of an inadequate
earthing system (e.g. electric shock).
Do not connect the appliance to
the mains electricity supply by an
extension lead. Extension leads do not
guarantee the required safety of the
appliance (e.g. danger of overheating).
This appliance may only be used in
mobile installations such as ships,
caravans, aircraft etc. if a risk
assessment of the installation has been
carried out by a suitably qualified
engineer.
The top edge of the appliance door
should not be above eye level. If it
is too high, you will find it difficult to
access all levels safely when putting
dishes into the oven and taking them
out, and there is a danger of food
spillages and possible scalding.
The appliance must be installed
and connected by a suitably
qualified and competent person in strict
accordance with current local and
national electrical and plumbing safety
regulations. The manufacturer cannot
be held liable for damage caused by
incorrect installation or connection.

Warning and Safety instructions
Protecting the appliance from
damage
Do not use the appliance to heat
up food in sealed jars and tins.
Pressure will build up inside them, and
they can explode causing damage to
the appliance, as well as the risk of
injury and scalding.
Do not store cooked food in the
oven. The moisture in the food can
lead to corrosion in the appliance.
Do not use metallic containers or
utensils in the oven which are likely
to rust. This can cause corrosion.
Do not use a steam cleaner to
clean this appliance. The steam
could reach electrical components and
cause a short circuit. Pressurised
steam could also cause permanent
damage to the surface and to other
components, for which the
manufacturer cannot accept liability.
The appliance is designed to
detect and then self-correct certain
operational faults. If a fault is detected,
the fault messages F06 to F95 will
appear in the display. The door of the
appliance can only be opened when
the fault message is flashing in the
display. If the fault message is not
flashing, the appliance is still
processing the fault. See "Problem
solving guide" for further information.

Warning and Safety instructions
Protection from burning and
scalding
The appliance, especially the door,
becomes extremely hot during use,
and remains hot for some time after
switching off. Be careful only to touch
the door button and door handle when
the oven door is hot.
To protect your hands, use
heat-resistant pot holders or oven
gloves when using the appliance. Do
not let them get damp or wet, as this
causes heat to transfer through the
material more quickly with the risk of
scalding or burning yourself.
Pull out the shelf underneath the
appliance before opening the door.
You can place hot containers on the
shelf and it will also collect any drops of
hot water.
On no account attempt to force the
door open during a programme.
The door may only be opened when:
- the cooling down phase is finished,
- the beep has stopped,
- the g symbol is flashing in the time
display.
Otherwise there is a danger of burning
or scalding.
Attempts to open the door before a
programme has run its course will
cause an alarm to sound, and the word
door to appear in the time display.
When putting dishes into the oven
or taking them out, take care not to
spill the contents. Do not come into
contact with hot steam. Danger of
scalding.
If bottling, do not use temperatures
higher than 95 °C (90 °C if the
appliance is installed higher than
1000 m above sea level). Higher

cooking time, including the size and
amount of food and its temperature.
Some foods, e.g. poultry, may contain
micro-organisms which are only
destroyed by thorough cooking at a
sufficiently high temperature for long
enough. If in doubt, select a longer
cooking or reheating time.
Warning: Take care in the area
around the door hinge. Danger of
injury.
Do not use plastic containers.
These melt at high temperatures.
The manufacturer cannot be held
liable for damage caused by
non-compliance with these Warning
and Safety instructions.

You can adjust the duration at any time,
even if a programme has already
started.
The charts later in these operating
instructions and the cookery book give
suggested cooking durations for
various types of food. Remember that
the cooking duration is not dependent
on the amount of food, but on the size
of the food. For example, large
potatoes will take longer to cook than
smaller potatoes.

Suitable containers
Some stainless steel cooking
containers are supplied with the
appliance.
Other containers, in a variety of sizes,
both perforated and solid, are available
as optional extras (see "Optional
accessories").
When choosing the most suitable
container for the particular food you are
cooking, please note:
Use perforated cooking containers
–
whenever possible so long as the
food is suitable, e.g. for vegetables.
The steam can reach the food from
all sides and the food is cooked
evenly.
– With large items of food, such as
whole potatoes, the steam can work
more effectively because there are
spaces between the individual
pieces into which the steam can
penetrate. This way a large quantity
will take the same time to cook as a
smaller amount and large, deep
containers can be used. Where
possible, space the food out to allow
the steam more room.
Practical tips
More compact dishes such as
–
casseroles or bakes, or food such as
peas or asparagus spears, which
have little or no space between them
will take longer to cook because the
steam has less space to work in. The
fuller the container, the longer it will
take to cook. It is best to use 2 or 3
flat containers rather than one deep
one for these types of foods, and
then fill them only 3 - 5 cm deep.
Cooking durations quoted are
calculated on this principle. Deeper
dishes will take longer to cook.
Heat-resistant glass, ceramic,
porcelain, stainless steel and enamel
dishes are all suitable. Important:
– The container must be heat resistant
to 120 °C.
– Food will take considerably longer to
cook than the time quoted if the dish
has thick sides.
– Place the dish on the tray supplied.
–
Ensure that the dish does not touch
the walls of the cooking
compartment so that steam can
reach the food from all sides.

Practical tips
Tips on steaming
We recommend using:
Steam with pressure ° 120 °C for
–
rapidly cooking robust foods.
Steam without pressure P 100 °C
–
for gently cooking delicate foods.
You can select any shelf level. You
–
can also cook on several levels at
the same time. This will not alter the
cooking duration.
When cooking frozen food, e.g.
–
vegetables, ensure that any large
clumps frozen together are broken
up first so that they cook evenly. The
cooking duration is approximately
the same as for fresh vegetables.
– Frozen and fresh vegetables which
take the same length of time to cook
can be cooked together.
– Cooking with steam retains the true
taste of the food better than
conventional cooking. Therefore food
should not be seasoned until after it
has been cooked.
–
Only fill solid containers
3
/4full with
liquid.
Dried foods like pasta and rice must
–
be cooked in liquid. Pasta should be
well covered with liquid. With rice,
pulses etc. the proportion of food to
liquid should be 1:1.
When cooking pasta and noodles,
–
follow the manufacturer's instructions
on the packaging regarding cooking
duration.
Cooking liquids do not boil away.
–
They are either absorbed by the
food, as with rice and pasta, or they
remain in the dish to form a sauce,
as with casseroles. The sauce can
then be thickened or added to after
cooking.
– You can thicken sauces in the steam
oven by adding flour and butter to
liquid (40 g flour and 40 g butter to
0.5 litres liquid).
– Grease perforated containers
beforehand if used for cooking fish in
its skin, and solid containers if used
for cooking dishes containing eggs.
30
Page 31
Practical tips
When cooking meat without adding
–
any additional liquid to the
container, the meat juices can be
used to for making gravy and
sauces. Put the meat and other
ingredients, e.g. vegetables, in a
perforated container. Place a solid
container underneath to catch the
juice.
If you wish to add additional liquid
–
when cooking meat using Steam with
pressure °, it is very important not
to add too much liquid as this can
cause the container to boil over. If
necessary add liquid, e.g. stock,
after cooking.
– When using Steam with pressure
°, cooking will only take approx.
half the time it would take with
conventional cooking.
To avoid any transfer of tastes
–
caused by moisture dripping down
from above, solid containers should
be placed above any perforated
containers.
Yeast dough can be put in the oven
–
to prove.
Select Steam without pressure P,
and reduce the recommended
temperature to 40 °C. Cover the
dough.

Tips on defrosting
– All meat and poultry should be fully
defrosted before cooking. When
defrosting meat or poultry, place the
food in a perforated container and
place the solid container underneath
to catch the defrosted liquid, so that
the meat is not lying in this liquid. It is
particularly important to observe
food hygiene rules when defrosting
poultry. Do not use the liquid from
defrosted poultry. Pour it away and
wash the tray, the sink and your
hands.
Danger of salmonella!
Fish does not need to be fully
–
defrosted before cooking. Defrost so
that the surface is sufficiently thawed
to take herbs and seasoning.
Turn, stir or separate food about
–
half-way through the defrosting time.
Allow food to stand at room
–
temperature at the end of defrosting.
This standing time (see chart) is
necessary to ensure that the food is
fully defrosted right through to the
core.
Do not refreeze food once it has
–
thawed.
– Defrost frozen pre-cooked meals
according to the manufacturer's
instructions.
– Defrost baked goods in a sealed
freezer bag.
–
Food which will not drip can be
placed in a perforated container
once the wrapping has been
removed.

Practical tips
Cooking whole meals
It is very economical and practical to
cook a whole meal at the same time in
the steam oven.
In general, cooking durations will vary
according to the type of food. This
means that you will need to open the
steam oven at different times to add a
particular dish. Our test kitchen
recommends the following procedure,
as shown in this example using Steam
with pressure °:
Lamb stew 8 minutes
Potatoes 8 minutes
Carrots 4 minutes
Proceed as follows:
^ First place the food with the longest
cooking duration (the lamb stew and
the potatoes) in the steam oven.
^ Select Steam with pressure °
120 °C.
At the end of the cooking duration you
can remove all three dishes at the same
time.
Blanching
You can use your steam oven to blanch
vegetables and fruit for freezing.
Put the prepared fruit or vegetables
^
into a perforated container and place
it in the oven.
Select Steam without pressure P
^
100 °C.
^ Set a time of 1-2 minutes.
^ Press the Start/Stop button.
^ Once blanched, plunge the
vegetables/fruit into ice cold water to
cool them down quickly. Drain them
well.
The vegetables/fruit can now be frozen.
^
Calculate the initial cooking duration
by subtracting the duration for the
carrots from the duration for lamb
stew / potatoes, i.e. 8 minutes less 4
minutes = 4 minutes.
^
Set a duration of 4 minutes and press
the Start/Stop button.
^
Once the 4 minutes and also the
cooling down phase has elapsed,
place the second dish (carrots) in the
oven.
^
Set the cooking duration for the
second dish, i. e. 4 minutes.
^
Press the Start/Stop button.

fruit and vegetables. It is best to use
very ripe fruit, as the riper the fruit the
greater the quantity of juice produced.
Very ripe fruit will also produce a more
intense flavour.

Useful tips
Wash the fruit or vegetables to be
–
juiced and cut away any bruised or
damaged parts.
There is no need to remove pips from
–
fruit.
Remove the stalks from grapes and
–
morello cherries as these are bitter.
The stalks do not need to be
removed from strawberries,
raspberries etc.
Dice large fruit such as apples into
–
2 cm thick cubes. The firmer the fruit
or vegetables, the smaller it should
be diced.
– Try experimenting with mild and tart
flavours, for example, mix apples
with elderberries.
– Adding sugar will increase the
quantity of juice produced and
improve the flavour. Sprinkle the fruit
with sugar and leave to soak in for a
few hours before juicing. For sweet
fruit add 100 - 150 g of sugar and
more tart fruit, 150 - 200 g of sugar.
–
Adding herbs will produce a more
intensely flavoured vegetable juice.
^
Set the duration (see chart).
^
Press the Start/Stop button.
–
If you wish to bottle the juice rather
than consume it straight away, pour it
whilst hot into hot, sterilised bottles
up to the rim and then seal immedi
ately with sterilised rubber tops.

Cleaning and care
Cooking compartment and
pull-out shelf
The cooking compartment, the inside of
the appliance door and also the pull-out
shelf should be cleaned and dried after
each use. Allow the appliance to cool
down to a safe temperature before
cleaning.
Most cooking residues can be removed
easily with a damp cloth and a mild
solution of hot water and washing up
liquid.
In areas where the water is very hard, a
white deposit can build up on interior
walls. This can be removed with a little
vinegar on a damp cloth.
If the water supply in your area is very
hard, discolouration can occur on the
oven interior walls after prolonged use
of the appliance. These can be
removed using a proprietary citric acid
based descaling agent or with a
cleaning agent designed for use on
ceramic hobs and stainless steel.
These can be obtained from a good
retailer.
To remove the pull-out shelf:
Pull the shelf out as far as possible.
^
Unscrew the two thumb nuts a.
^
Take the pull-out shelf off its runners
^
and then clean and dry it.
To replace the pull-out shelf:
^ Pull the two shelf runners out as far
as possible.
^ Push the shelf under the two holders
b, located at the back of the
runners.
^
Then place the shelf on the two
screws at the front of the runners.
^
Then tighten the thumb nuts.
Wipe the cooking compartment and the
pull-out shelf with clean water, and then
rub dry.
If necessary, the pull-out shelf can be
removed completely for cleaning.

Cleaning and care
Shelf runners
It is helpful to remove the shelf runners
when you wish to give the oven a
thorough clean.
To remove the runners:
Loosen fixing screws a and the
^
runners can then be removed quite
easily by pulling them towards you.
The runners are dishwasher safe.
To replace the runners:
After cleaning, re-fit the runners by
^
placing the runner with the guide b
(at the front of the middle runner) on
to the loosened fixing screw.
Insert the eyelet, located at the rear
^
of the middle runner, on to the
protuding pin c in the rear wall of the
cooking compartment.
Tighten the screws again.

Cleaning and care
Water nozzle
During the cooling down phase, water
is sprayed into the cooking
compartment from a water nozzle which
is located behind the deflector plate at
the back of the runners on the right
hand side. With prolonged use, this
nozzle can become dirty and will
require descaling.
The nozzle must be descaled if the fault
message F13 appears in the display.
^ Wait until several beeps sound. Now
open the door and remove the food
which is cooking.
Use the descaling agent supplied
^
with the appliance or a suitable
proprietary descaling agent following
the instructions on the packaging, to
descale the nozzle.
You must now flush out all parts of the
appliance which carry water.
Close the door and switch the
^
appliance on. Select Steam without
pressure P.
Set a duration of 1 minute and press
^
the Start/Stop button.
Wait until the cooling down phase
^
has been completed (see "At the end
of the cooking duration").
^ Then open the door and replace the
water nozzle and the shelf runners.
The steam oven can now be used
again in the normal way.
If the fault message F13 reappears after
the nozzle has been descaled, contact
the Service Department.
Take care as a large amount of
extremely hot steam may escape
when the door is opened. The food
will also be very hot.
^
Leave the appliance to cool down
with the door open.
^
Remove the runners on the
right-hand side (see "Shelf runners")
^
Pull out the nozzle.

Cleaning and care
Descaling
Descaling must be carried out on a
cold appliance to prevent harmful
vapours forming.
The descaling agent is an irritant.
Avoid contact with the the skin and
do not inhale the vapours.
If you do come into contact with
descaling agent it should be rinsed
off immediately with plenty of fresh
water. In the event of an adverse
reaction or if it has been inhaled or
injested, seek medical help.
Replace the lid securely after use
and keep out of the reach of
children.
The appliance will alert you after a
certain number of operating hours that
the steam generator needs to be
descaled. When the appliance is
switched on the k symbol, the Descale
programme symbol k and the number
10 will appear in the
programme/temperature display.
The number indicates that the
appliance can be used a further 10
times before it locks out. If the
appliance is not descaled immediately,
a 9 will appear in the display the next
time the appliance is switched on, and
so on until it has been used ten times.
The appliance will then lock and it must
be descaled before it can be used
again. We recommend that you descale
the appliance before it locks out.
The descaling process can only be
stopped by switching off the appliance.
If the appliance is switched back on,
after interrupting it, a rinse cycle will be
carried out automatically (see "Problem
solving guide").
