Causes of damage
Caution!
■ Do not place anything on the cooking compartment floor. Do
not cover it with aluminium foil. A build-up of heat could
damage the appliance.
The cooking compartment floor and the evaporator dish must
always be kept clear. Always place ovenware in a perforated
cooking container or on a wire rack.
■ Aluminium foil in the cooking compartment must not come
into contact with the door panel. This could cause permanent
discolouration of the door panel.
■ Ovenware: Ovenware must be heat and steam resistant.
■ Do not use ovenware that shows signs of rust. Even the
smallest spots of rust can lead to corrosion in the cooking
compartment.
■ Dripping liquids: When steaming with a perforated cooking
container, always insert the baking tray, the universal pan or
the solid cooking container underneath. Dripping liquid is
caught.
■ Do not store moist food in the closed cooking compartment
for long periods. It can lead to corrosion in the cooking
compartment.
■ If the door seal is very dirty, the appliance door will no longer
close properly during operation. The fronts of adjacent units
could be damaged. Always keep the door seal clean and
replace when necessary.
■ Do not place anything on the open appliance door. The
appliance could be damaged.
■ Do not carry or hold the appliance by the door handle. The
door handle cannot support the weight of the appliance, and

Progress display
The progress display provides you with a quick overview of the
cooking time as it counts down. It appears as a line under the
status bar after the cooking time starts. The line begins on the
left and becomes longer as the cooking time progresses. The
line reaches the right-hand extremity of the display once the
cooking time has elapsed.
Settings areas
The two settings areas show suggested values that you can
change. The settings area which is currently active has a light
background with black writing. You can make changes here.
You can use the
¾ and ¿ navigation buttons to switch from one
settings area to the next one. The
¾ and ¿ arrows in the
settings areas show you which way you can go with the
navigation buttons.
Once you start the oven, both settings areas are dark with light
writing.
Rotation direction indicator
The
Ï indicator shows the direction in which you can move
the rotary selector.
Ð = turn the rotary selector clockwise
Ñ = turn the rotary selector anti-clockwise
If both direction arrows are shown, you can turn the rotary
selector in either direction.
Temperature indicator
The temperature indicator bars show the heating phases or
residual heat in the cooking compartment.
Heating indicator
The heating indicator displays the rising temperature in the
cooking compartment.
The bars do not appear when settings are made for cleaning.
You can use the
± button to check the current heating
temperature when heating up. Due to thermal inertia, the
temperature displayed may be slightly different to the actual
temperature inside the oven.
Residual heat
The temperature indicator shows the residual heat in the
cooking compartment when the appliance is switched off. If the
last bar is filled, the temperature in the cooking compartment is
approximately 300 °C. Once the temperature has dropped to
approximately 60 °C, the display goes out.
Types of heating
You can use the " button (Types of heating) to set your
appliance for various different applications.
Automatic calibration
The boiling temperature of water depends on the air pressure.
During calibration, the appliance is adapted to the pressure
conditions in the location where it is installed. This happens
automatically when you first use the appliance (see section:
First use). More steam develops than usual.
It is important that the appliance steams without interruption for
20 minutes at 100 °C. Do not open the appliance door during
this time.
If the appliance was not able to calibrate itself automatically (for
example, because the appliance door was opened), the
calibration process is carried out again during the next cooking
operation.
After moving house
So that the appliance automatically adjusts itself to its new
location, you must reset the appliance to the factory settings
(see section: Basic settings) and repeat the initial start-up
process (see section: First use).
After a power cut
The appliance saves the calibration settings even in the event
of a power cut or disconnection from the mains. Recalibration
is not necessary.

Type of heating Application
Steam 35 - 100 °C For vegetables, fish, side dishes, for juicing fruit and for blanching.
Reheat 80 - 100 °C For plated meals and baked items.
Cooked food is gently reheated. The steam ensures that the food does not dry out.
Prove 35 - 50 °C For yeast dough and sour dough.
Dough will prove considerably more quickly than at room temperature. The surface of the
dough does not dry out.
Defrost 35 - 60 °C For vegetables, meat, fish and fruit.
The moisture gently transfers the heat to the food. The food does not dry out or lose its
shape.
