12
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Proper use
Danger of burning. The steam oven becomes hot when in use.
You could burn yourself on the heating elements, oven interior,
cooked food, oven accessories or hot steam. Use pot holders when
placing food in the oven or removing it and when adjusting oven
shelves etc. in a hot oven. Take care when putting cooking pans into
the oven or removing them not to spill the contents.
Use only dry, heat-resistant potholders. Moist or damp potholders
used on hot surfaces may result in steam burns. Do not let potholders come in contact with oil or grease. Do not substitute dish towels
or other bulky items for potholders. Do not let potholders touch hot
heating elements.
Do not heat up food in closed containers e.g. tins or sealed jars in
the steam oven, as pressure will build up in the container, causing it
to explode.
Plastic containers which are not suitable for use in an oven can
melt at high temperatures and can even damage the steam oven or
catch fire.
Only use plastic containers which are declared by the manufacturer
as being suitable for use in a steam oven. Follow the manufacturer's
instructions on use. If you want to use plastic containers for steaming food make sure that they are temperature resistant to 210°F /
100°C and steam resistant. Any other plastic containers could melt,
become brittle or break when subjected to heat.
Food which is left in the oven to be kept hot can dry out and the
moisture released can lead to corrosion damage in the appliance. Do
not use the steam oven for keeping food warm and do not use utensils in the appliance which could corrode.
Do not leave the appliance door open unnecessarily as someone
may trip over it or be injured by it.
13
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
The door can support a maximum weight of 22lbs (10kg). Do not
sit, lean or place heavy items on the open oven door. Also be sure
nothing can get trapped between the door and the oven cavity. The
steam oven could get damaged.
Oil and fat can ignite if overheated. Never leave the steam oven
unattended when cooking with oil and fat.
If it does ignite do not put the flames out with water. Switch the
steam oven off immediately and then suffocate the flames by keeping the oven door closed.
Smother the fire or flames, or use a dry chemical extinguishing
agent or foam fire extinguisher.
Due to the high temperatures radiated, objects left near the steam
oven when it is in use could catch fire.
Do not use the steam oven to heat up the room.
Broiling food for an excessively long time can cause it to dry out
with the risk of catching fire.
Do not exceed recommended broiling times.
Some foods dry out very quickly and can be ignited by high broil-
ing temperatures. Do not use broiling functions for crisping rolls or
bread or to dry flowers or herbs. Instead use the Convection
Plus or Surround functions.
To avoid fueling any flames, do not open the appliance door if you
see smoke coming from the food in the oven interior. Interrupt the
current process by turning off the appliance and disconnecting it
from the power. Do not open the door until the smoke has dissipated.
Use caution when using alcohol in your recipes. Alcohol evapo-
rates at high temperatures but may, in rare circumstances, combust
on the hot heating elements.
Never cover the floor of the oven with aluminum foil, or place oven
dishes, pans, saucepans or trays directly onto the floor of the oven.
14
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Never use the steam oven without a drain filter as large food
residues may block the drain and the pump.
To prevent the risk of damage, do not leave the roast probe in the
oven cavity when it is not being used.
When using an electrical appliance, e.g., a hand-held mixer, near
the steam oven, make sure that the power cord does not get caught
in the door. The insulation on the cord could become damaged, giving rise to an electric shock hazard.
Do not operate the appliance without the lamp cover. Steam could
attack the electrical components and cause a short circuit. Steam
could also damage the electrical components.
The steam oven should be installed at a safe height for users to
safely access all cooking levels and pans. Otherwise spills could
cause burns or scalding and children may be put at risk by the hot
appliance door.
Flammable materials should not be stored in an oven or in the
vicinity of the cooktop.
Open the door carefully to allow hot air or steam to escape before
placing or removing food.
Keep the oven vent ducts open.
Wear proper apparel - Loose-fitting or hanging garments should
never be worn while using the appliance.
To prevent burns, always place oven racks at their desired height
while the steam oven is cool. If the rack must be moved while the
oven is hot, do not let pot holders touch hot heating elements.
15
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Caution: Heating elements may be hot even though they are not
glowing. Interior surfaces of an steam oven become hot enough to
cause burns. External parts of the steam oven such as the door
glass, vents, and the control panel can become hot. During and after
use, do not touch, or let clothing or other flammable materials come
into contact with heating elements or interior surfaces of the steam
oven until they have had sufficient time to cool.
16
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Cleaning and care

Description of functions
Control panel
The water container and condensate
container are located behind the control
panel. The control panel is opened and
closed using the "Lift Panel" sensor.
The panel is equipped with a device
which will automatically stop it moving
if it meets an obstruction while opening
or closing. Do not touch the door handle while the panel is opening or closing.
Water container
The maximum water level is 3 pints
(1.4liters), the minimum 1 quart (1liter).
These levels are indicated on the container. Do not exceed the maximum
level.
The amount of water depends on the
type of food and the duration of cooking. You may need to refill the water
container during the cooking procedure.
Opening the door will increase the
amount used.
Fill the water container to the maximum
level before each use.
Condensate container
Condensate that collects in the appliance from cooking is pumped into the
condensate container. The container
has a maximum capacity of 3 pints
(1.4liters).
Grease filter
Insert the grease filter in the back wall
for all roasting programs.
It should be removed when using steam
programs.
It must also be removed when baking,
as otherwise results can be uneven (exception: deep fresh fruit pies, pizza with
extra toppings).
Roast probe
The roast probe measures the core
temperature in the food, enabling the
temperature during the cooking process
to be monitored simply and accurately.
Temperature / Core temperature
Some modes offer a recommended
temperature. The recommended temperature can be changed for a single
cooking program or cooking step, or
permanently within a specific area (see
"Settings – Recommended temperatures").
It is also possible to change the core
temperature for a single cooking program or cooking step within the specified area.
24
Description of functions
Moisture content
The Combi Steam and Reheat modes use
a combination of oven heat and moisture. You can alter the moisture/humidity level within a given range for an individual cooking program or a cooking
stage.
Depending on the setting for the program, either moisture or fresh air is injected into the oven. If the humidity
level is set to 0%, the maximum
amount of air will be injected and no
moisture. If the level is set to 100%, air
will not be injected into the oven and
the maximum amount of moisture will
be injected.
Some food gives off moisture during
the cooking process. This moisture
from the food also controls the amount
of moisture needed. If the required
amount of moisture is very low and the
food already contains a lot of water the
steam generator may not be activated
at all.
Cooking duration
Depending on the function, you can set
a cooking duration of between 1 minute
and 6, 10 or 12 hours.
The duration of the MasterChef, Maintenance and Menu Cooking programs is
set at the factory and cannot be altered.
With the Steam Cooking function and
programs that use steam alone, the
cooking duration does not start to
count down until the set temperature
has been reached. It begins immediately with all other functions and programs.
Noises
You will hear a pumping sound when
the appliance is turned on, during use
and after turning it off. This is the sound
of water being pumped through the
system and is quite normal.
When the steam oven is in use, you will
hear a fan noise.
25
Description of functions
Preheating phase
During the preheating phase the display
will show the temperature in the cooking compartment as it rises and Pre-
Heating in all programs except for MasterChef, Menu Cooking, and Maintenance.
During steam cooking, the duration of
the preheating phase will depend on the
quantity and the temperature of the
food. In general this phase will last for
approx. 5 minutes. The duration will be
longer if you are preparing refrigerated
or frozen food.
Cooking phase
The cooking phase begins when the set
temperature is reached. During the
cooking phase, the time left will be
shown on the display.
Steam reduction
If cooking is performed in a certain temperature range during steam cooking
and combination cooking, the steam reduction function switches on automatically at the end of the cooking program.
This reduces the amount of steam
which escapes from the appliance
when the door is opened at the end of
the cooking duration. Steam Reduction
will appear in the display in addition to
Program Finished.
Oven interior lighting
The oven light has been set at the factory to go out when cooking starts.
If you want it to stay on all the time the
oven is on you will need to alter the default setting (see "Settings - Lighting").
If the door is left open at the end of a
cooking program, the oven lighting will
turn off automatically after 5minutes.
The oven lighting gives off heat. If you
are operating the combi steam oven at
a temperature below 125°F (50°C), the
oven compartment lighting switches off
automatically.
If the "Light" button on the control
panel is pressed, the oven compartment lighting will come on for 15seconds.
This function can be switched off if you
wish (see "Settings - Steam reduction").

Accessories / Oven interior
Remove all accessories from the
steam oven.
Wash them by hand using hot water
and a soft clean sponge and a mild
solution of warm water and liquid
dish soap or in the dishwasher.
Risk of damage to the surfaces of
the universal tray and the wire oven
rack.
The universal tray and wire oven rack
are treated with PerfectClean and
must only be cleaned by hand.
See "Cleaning and care - PerfectClean" for more information.
Clean the universal tray and wire
oven rack with a solution of warm
water and liquid dish soap applied

The interior of the steam oven has
been treated at the factory with a conditioning agent.
Setting the water hardness
level
The steam oven is factory set for Hard
water. It must be adjusted local water
hardness to ensure trouble-free operation and to ensure that descaling is carried out at the correct interval. The
harder the water, the more often it will
need to be descaled.
Check the hardness of your local wa-
ter supply and adjust the water hardness as necessary (see "Settings Water hardness").
To remove this, clean the oven inte-
rior with warm water and liquid dish
soap and then dry thoroughly with a
soft cloth.
29
Before using for the first time
Setting the correct boiling
point for water
Before cooking food for the first time,
you must set the boiling point for water,
as this varies depending on the altitude
of the installation location of the appliance. This procedure also flushes out
the waterways.
This procedure must be carried out
to ensure efficient functioning of your
appliance.
Only use cold tap water (less than
68°F / 20°C). Never use distilled or
mineral water or other liquids.
Remove the water container and fill it
to the "max" marker.
Push the water container into the ap-
pliance until it engages.
You should then run the Steam Cook-
ing program at 210°F / 100°C for
15minutes. Proceed as described in
"Operation ‒ Steam cooking."
Heating up the steam oven
To remove the grease from the ring
heating element, heat the appliance
up with nothing in it at 400°F / 200°C
using the Convection Bake function for
30minutes.
Proceed as described in "Operation ‒
Functions without steam."
There will be a slight smell the first
time the heating element is heated up.
The smell and any vapors will dissipate after a short time, and do not indicate a faulty connection or appliance.
It is important to ensure that the
kitchen is well ventilated during this
operation.
Resetting the correct boiling point for
water
If you move, the appliance will need to
be re-set for the new altitude if this differs from the old one by 984 ft (300m)
or more. To do this, descale the appliance (see "Cleaning and care – Maintenance – Descaling").
