Cooking compartment functions

The functions in the cooking compartment make your appliance easier to use. This, for example, enables the cooking compartment to be well lit and a cooling fan to prevent the appliance from overheating.

Opening the appliance door

If you open the appliance door during an operation, the operation is paused. The operation continues to run when you close the door.

Reheat 80-100 °C For plated meals

Cooked food is gently reheated. The steam ensures that the food does not dry out

Dough proving 30-50 °C For yeast dough

Dough will rise considerably more quickly than at room temperature. The surface of the dough does not dry out

Sous-vide 50-95 °C Cooking under a vacuum at low temperatures between 50 and 95 °C and 100% steam: Suitable

for meat, fish, vegetables and desserts. A vacuum-sealing machine is used to heat-seal the food in a special air-tight, heat-resistant cooking

bag. The protective envelope retains the nutrients and flavours.

Defrost setting 30-60 °C For fruit and vegetables

The moisture gently transfers the heat to the food. The food does not dry out or lose its shape

Note: You can set the interior lighting not to come on during the operation in the basic settings. ~ "Basic

settings" on page 18

Cooling fan

The cooling fan switches on and off as required. The hot air escapes above the door.

Caution!

Do not cover the ventilation slots. Otherwise, the appliance may overheat.

Note: For some types of heating, the operation continues to run even when the appliance door is open.

Interior lighting

If you open the appliance door, the interior lighting switches on. If the door remains open for longer than around 15 minutes, the lighting switches off again.

For most operating modes, the interior lighting switches on as soon as the operation is started. When the operation has finished, the lighting switches off.

So that the cooking compartment cools down more quickly after the operation, the cooling fan continues to run for a certain period afterwards.

Note: You can change how long the cooling fan continues to run for in the basic settings. ~ "Basic

Cleani ng

With good care and cleaning, your appliance will retain its appearance and remain fully functioning for a long time to come. We will explain here how you should correctly care for and clean your appliance.

:Warning – Risk of short circuit!

Do not use high-pressure cleaners or steam jet cleaners to clean your appliance.

Caution! Risk of surface damage

Do not use

■ harsh or abrasive cleaning agents

■ oven cleaners

■ corrosive or aggressive cleaners, or those

If such an agent comes into contact with the front of the appliance, wash it off immediately with water.

Caution! Risk of surface damage

If descaler comes into contact with the front of the appliance or any other sensitive surfaces, wash it off immediately with water.

Remove food residues from the cooking compartment as soon as the appliance has cooled.

Salts are very corrosive and can cause rust. Remove remains of acidic sauces (ketchup, mustard) or salted food from the cooking compartment immediately after cooling.

Do not use hard scouring pads or cleaning sponges.

cleaning agents

Appliance exterior (with aluminium front) Use soapy water and dry with a soft cloth.

Mild window cleaning agent - wipe over the aluminium front horizontally and without applying pressure using a soft window cloth or a lint-free microfibre cloth.

Appliance exterior (with stainless steel front) Use soapy water and dry with a soft cloth.

Always remove flecks of limescale, grease, starch and albumin (e.g. egg white) immediately. Special stainless steel cleaning agents can be obtained from the after-sales service or from specialist retailers.

en Cleaning

Descaling

The appliance must be descaled regularly in order for it to continue operating correctly.

There are several steps in the descaling programme. For hygiene reasons, the descaling programme must be run through completely so that the appliance can be ready for operation again.

■ Descale (approx. 30 minutes), then empty the

evaporator dish and refill the water tank

■ First rinsing cycle (20 seconds), then empty the

evaporator dish

■ Second rinsing cycle (20 seconds), then remove the

remaining water

If descaling is interrupted (for example, due to a power failure or because the appliance is switched off), you are prompted to continue with the descaling programme after the appliance is switched back on.

The frequency with which the appliance must be descaled depends on the hardness of the water used. When only five more steam-assisted operations are possible, or fewer, the appliance reminds you to descale it with a message on the display. The number of remaining operations is displayed after the appliance is switched on. You can therefore prepare for the descaling in good time.

Starting

Caution!

■ Risk of damage to the appliance: Only use liquid

descalers recommended by us for the descaling programme. The time the product needs to work during descaling depends on the type of descaler used. Other descalers may damage the appliance. Descaler order no. 311 680

■ Descaling solution: Do not allow any descaling

solution or descaler to come into contact with the control panel or other surfaces on the appliance. This damages the surfaces. If this does happen, remove the descaling solution immediately with water.

First rinsing cycle

1. Remove the descaling solution from the evaporator

dish using the cleaning sponge.

2. Remove the water tank, rinse thoroughly, fill with

water and reinsert.

3. Close the appliance door.

1. Mix 100 ml water with 20 ml liquid descaler to make

a descaling solution.

2. Completely fill the evaporator dish with descaling

solution.

3. Fill the water tank with water only.

4. Start "Descale" as described.

1. Mix 300 ml water with 60 ml liquid descaler to make

a descaling solution.

Set t i ng s table and tips

Steaming is a particularly gentle way of cooking food. The steam surrounds the dish thereby preventing a loss of nutrients from the food. Cooking takes place without excess pressure. As a result, the shape, colour and typical aroma of the dishes are retained.

The tables contain a selection of dishes which are particularly suitable for your steam oven. You can find out which heating type, accessories, temperature and cooking time are best to select. Unless otherwise stated, the information given applies to inserting accessories when the appliance is cold.

Accessories

Use the accessories provided.

When steaming in the perforated steam container, always insert the solid steam container underneath. Dripping liquid is caught.

Ovenware

When using ovenware, always place it in the middle of the perforated steam container.

Ovenware must be heat and steam resistant. Cooking times are increased if thick-sided ovenware is used.

Food which would normally be prepared in a bain-marie should always be covered with foil (e.g. when melting chocolate).

Cooking time and quantity

Follow the unit sizes given in the tables. The cooking time is reduced for smaller pieces and increased for larger ones. Cooking time is also influenced by the quality and ripeness of the food. The values quoted can therefore only serve as a guideline.

Distributing food evenly

Always distribute the food evenly in the ovenware. It will not cook evenly if the layers are of different depths.

Pressure-sensitive food

When layering delicate foods in the steam container, do not pile them too high. You should ideally use two steam containers.

Cooking a menu

With steam, you can cook a whole menu at once, without the different flavours mixing. Place the food with the longest cooking time in the appliance first and delay the rest until the appropriate time. This means that all the food will be ready at the same time.

The overall cooking time is extended with menu cooking, as a little steam escapes each time the appliance door is opened and has to be reheated.

Vegetables

Place the vegetables in the perforated steam container and insert at level 3. Always insert the solid steam container underneath at level 1. Any dripping liquid will be caught.

The cooking times when steaming depend on the item size, but do not depend on the total quantity. The appliance can steam food to a maximum of 2 kg.

Sous-vide

Sous-vide cooking is a method of cooking under a vacuum at low temperatures from 50-95 C and in 100% steam.

Sous-vide cooking is a gentle method of preparing meat, fish, vegetables and desserts. A chamber vacuum-sealing machine is used to heat-seal the food in a special air-tight, heat-resistant vacuum-sealing bag.

The protective envelope of the vacuum-sealing bag retains the nutrients and flavours. The low temperatures and the direct transfer of heat allow precisely controlled cooking in order to achieve the desired cooking results. It is almost impossible to overcook the food.

Portions Take into consideration the specified quantities and sizes for the food listed in the settings table. For relatively large quantities and items, the cooking time must be adjusted accordingly. The appliance can cook up to 2 kg of food sous-vide.

The quantities given for fish, meat and poultry correspond to one to two portions. A portion size sufficient for four people has been selected for vegetables and desserts.

Rack levels You can cook on up to two levels. For this purpose, always slide in the unperforated cooking container at level 1 to catch any drops of condensate. Insert the perforated cooking container above accordingly.

Hygiene

:Warning – Health risk!

Sous-vide cooking is a method of cooking at low temperatures. As a result, it is important that you always follow the application and hygiene instructions below:

■ Only use high-quality, perfectly fresh food.

■ Wash and disinfect your hands. Use disposable

gloves or cooking/grill tongs.

■ Take extra care when preparing hygienically critical

food, such as poultry, eggs and fish.

■ Always thoroughly rinse and/or peel fruit and

vegetables.

■ Always keep work surfaces and chopping boards

■ Maintain the cold chain. Make sure that you only

■ Food is suitable for immediate consumption only.

Tip: Since germs can be found on the surface of almost all food, the best way to kill these germs is to put the vacuum-sealed, uncooked food in boiling water for a maximum of 3 seconds. This is the best way to prepare your ingredients for sous-vide cooking so that they are free from germs and hygienic. Then place the vacuumsealing bag in the cooking compartment to sous-vide cook the food.

clean. Use different chopping boards for different types of food.

interrupt it briefly to prepare the food, and then return the food in its vacuum-sealed bag to the refrigerator for storage before you cook it. Store the prepared food for a maximum of 24 hours.

Once the food is cooked, consume it immediately. Do not store it after cooking – not even in the refrigerator. It is not suitable for reheating.

Vacuum-sealing bags When using the sous-vide cooking method, only use heat-resistant vacuum-sealing bags designed for this purpose.

The vacuum-sealing bag must only be used once. Do not use these bags more than once.

Do not cook the food in the bag you bought it in (e.g. portions of fish). These bags are not suitable for sousvide cooking.

Vacuum-sealing Use a chamber vacuum-sealing machine that can create a 99% vacuum to vacuum-seal the food. This is the only way to achieve even heat transfer and therefore a perfect cooking result.

Note: To fill the vacuum-sealing bag, fold the edge of the bag down by 3-4 cm and place it into a container, e.g. into a measuring jug.

Before cooking the food, check whether the vacuum in the vacuum-sealing bag is intact. Make sure that:

■ There is no/hardly any air in the vacuum-sealing

bag.

■ The heat-sealed seam is perfectly sealed.

■ There are no holes in the vacuum-sealing bag. You

do not use the core temperature probe.

■ You do not pile pieces of meat or fish on top of one

another.

■ As far as possible, you avoid piling up vegetables

and desserts when vacuum-sealing them.

■ To ensure that the seam is perfect, the seam area on

the edge of the vacuum-sealing bag does not become wet with food residue.

If in doubt, place the food into a new vacuum-sealing bag and vacuum-seal it again.

Food should be vacuum-sealed at most one day before it is cooked. This is the only way to prevent the escape of gases from the food (e.g. from vegetables) that inhibit the transfer of heat, or to prevent the texture of the food from changing, and thus altering how it cooks, as a result of the vacuum pressure.

Quality of the food The quality of the cooking result is 100% influenced by the quality of the ingredients you use. Use only fresh, top-quality food. This is the only way to guarantee a consistent cooking result that delivers impeccable flavour.

Preparation Cooking under a vacuum means that the flavours cannot escape. In using this method, please note that the usual quantities of seasoning and condiments, such as herbs, spices and garlic, can have a much greater effect on the flavour and can intensify the flavour. You should therefore start off by halving the quantities you usually use.

If the ingredients are of high quality, it is often sufficient to enclose them in the vacuum-sealing bag with just a small knob of butter and a little salt. Generally, the fact that the food's natural flavours intensify during cooking is sufficient on its own to produce a flavourful cooking result.

Settings table and tips en

The following ingredients influence how the food is prepared:

■ Salt and sugar reduce the cooking time

■ Acidic food, such as lemon or vinegar, help the food

to firm up

■ Alcohol or garlic give the food an unpleasant after-

taste

Do not place the vacuum-sealed food items on top of one another or too close together in the perforated cooking containers. In order to ensure that the heat is distributed evenly, the food items should not be touching. Always slide in the unperforated cooking container at level 1 to catch any drops of condensate.

:Warning – Risk of scalding!

Hot water collects on the vacuum-sealing bag during cooking. Use an oven cloth to carefully lift the vacuumsealing bag, so that the hot water runs off into the universal pan or the cooking container. Then use the oven cloth to carefully remove the vacuum-sealing bag.

Once the food is cooked, allow the cooking compartment to cool and then use a sponge to wipe away the water from the evaporator dish.

Dry the outside of the vacuum-sealing bag, place it in a clean container and use scissors to open it. Place all of the food, along with its juices, into the container. You can use the stock or marinade to make a sauce.

The food can be finished off as follows once the sousvide cooking stage is complete:

Meat: Flash fry in a frying pan at a very high

temperature for only a few seconds on each side. This gives it a nice crust and the flavours you would expect from frying, without overcooking it.

Important: Dab the meat with a paper towel before placing it into hot oil, in order to avoid fat spitting out of the pan.

Vegetables: Flash fry in a frying pan to give them the flavours you would expect from frying. When frying vegetables like this, it is easy to season them or mix them with other ingredients.

Fish: Season and coat with hot butter.

Fry the food for longer if has not been sufficiently well cooked during the sous-vide cooking stage.

Serve the food on pre-heated plates and, if possible, with a hot sauce or butter as sous-vide cooking takes place at relatively low temperatures.

Defrosting

Settings table and tips en

The steam function "Defrost" is suitable for defrosting frozen fruit and vegetables. It is best to allow poultry, meat and fish to defrost in the refrigerator. To defrost the frozen food, remove it from its packaging. Place frozen fruit and vegetables into the steaming pan with the perforated base, and place the steaming pan with the unperforated base underneath. This keeps the food away from the water that forms as it defrosts, and allows this water to be collected as it drips down. For frozen food that needs to retain liquid when it is cooked, e.g. creamed spinach, use the steaming pan with the

Tip: Food that has been frozen in thinner pieces or in portions defrosts more quickly than food items frozen in a block.

Preserving

Preserve food which is as fresh as possible. When foods are stored for a relatively long period, their vitamin content is reduced and they ferment and spoil more easily.

Only use fruit and vegetables which are in perfect condition.

The following foods cannot be preserved with your appliance: Contents of tins, meat, fish or pastry dough.

Check preserving jars, rubber rings, clips and springs.

Pip fruits 1-litre preserving jars 2 Steam 100 25 - 30

Clean rubber rings and jars thoroughly with hot water. The "Sterilise bottles" programme is also suitable for cleaning jars.

Place the jars into the perforated steam container. They must not touch each other.

After the specified cooking time, open the appliance door.

Do not remove the preserving jars from the appliance until they have completely cooled down.
