: Safety precautions

Read these instructions for use carefully. Please keep the instructions for use and installation instructions in a safe place. If the appliance changes owners, the instructions should always be included.

Safety notes

This appliance is intended for domestic use only. This
appliance must only be used for food preparation.

Adults and children must not operate the appliance without
supervision,

■ if they are physically or mentally incapable of doing so or

■ if they have insufficient knowledge or experience.

Never let children play with the appliance.

Risk of scalding!

Hot steam may escape when the appliance door is opened.
Open the appliance door carefully during or after cooking.
When opening the door, do not lean over it. Ensure that,
depending on the temperature, steam is not visible.

Risk of burns!

Never touch the interior surfaces of the cooking compartment
or the heating elements when they are hot. Small children must
be kept at a safe distance from the appliance.

Risk of fire!

Never store combustible items in the cooking compartment.

Risk of fire!

When preheating, never place greaseproof paper unsecured on
the accessories. Draughts are created when the appliance door
is opened. Greaseproof paper may ignite when in contact with
very hot surfaces. Always use a plate or a baking tin to hold the
greaseproof paper down. Only cover the required surface with
greaseproof paper. The greaseproof paper must not extend
over the edge of accessories.

Risk of scalding!

Never pour water into the cooking compartment when it is hot.
This will create hot steam.

Risk of short circuit!

Never trap connecting cables of electrical appliances in the hot
appliance door. The cable insulation could melt.

Risk of burning!

Never prepare food containing large quantities of drinks with a
high alcohol content. Alcoholic vapours can catch fire in the
cooking compartment. Only use small quantities of drinks with
a high alcohol content and take care when opening the
appliance door.

Risk of electric shock!

Incorrect repairs are dangerous. Repairs may only be carried
out by one of our trained aftersales engineers. If the appliance
is defective, pull out the mains plug or switch off the appliance
at the circuit breaker in the fuse box. Call the aftersales
service.

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 must be heat and steam resistant. Silicone baking

tins are not suitable for combined operation with steam.

■ Do not use ovenware that shows signs of rust. Even the

smallest spots of rust can lead to corrosion in the cooking
compartment.

■ When steaming with a perforated cooking container, always

insert the baking tray 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.

■ Fruit juice may leave stains in the cooking compartment.

Always remove fruit juice immediately and wipe the cooking
compartment with a moist and dry cloth.

■ 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
could break.

■ The cooking compartment in your appliance is made of high

grade stainless steel. Improper care can lead to corrosion in
the cooking compartment. Refer to the care and cleaning
instructions in the instruction manual. Remove food residues
from the cooking compartment as soon as the appliance has
cooled.

Risk of burning!

Never remove hot accessories or ovenware from the cooking
compartment without oven gloves.

Risk of scalding!

Do not clean the appliance immediately after switching it off.
The water in the evaporator dish is still hot. Wait until the
appliance has cooled down.

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.

Before using for the first time

In this section you will find out which steps are required before
using the appliance for the first time:

■ Setting the clock

■ Setting the water hardness range

Slow cooking sirloin P 15
With sirloin, it is recommended that you use a thick piece. Sear
the meat well beforehand.

Slow-cooked leg of lamb P 19
Sear the meat well beforehand.

Steaming fish P 21  P 22
When preparing fish, grease the perforated cooking container.

Do not place whole fish or fish fillets on top of each other. Enter
the weight of the heaviest fish and choose pieces as similar in
size as possible.

10

Baking plaited loaf P 24
Allow the yeast dough to prove in the combination steam oven
for half an hour using Steam at 40 °C.

Preparing rice pudding P 25
Weigh the rice and add 2.5 times the amount of milk. Ensure
the level of rice and milk in the accessory is no higher than

2.5 cm. Stir after cooking. The remaining milk is quickly
absorbed.

Preparing yoghurt P 26
Heat the milk to 90 °C on the hob. Then leave to cool to 40 °C.
If you are using UHT milk, you do not need to heat it.

Stir in one to two teaspoons of natural yoghurt per 100 ml milk,
or the corresponding amount of yoghurt culture into the milk.
Pour the mixture into clean jars and seal them.

After preparation, leave the glasses to cool in the refrigerator.
Baking bread P 27  P 28

The programmes are designed for baking loaves of bread
without a tin. The dough should not be too soft. Score the
dough several times with a sharp knife to a depth of approx.
1 cm before baking.

Baking bread rolls P 29
The rolls should all be the same weight. Enter the weight of an
individual bread roll.

Defrosting P 35  P 37
When freezing, lay the food as flat as possible and in portion­sized pieces at -18 °C. Do not freeze excessively large
quantities. Once defrosted, food will not keep for as long and
spoils more quickly than fresh food.

Leave the food to defrost in the freezer bag, on a plate or on
the perforated cooking container. Always insert the baking tray
underneath. The food is then not left lying in the defrost water
and the cooking compartment remains clean.

All defrost programmes apply to raw food.
If necessary, the meal can occasionally be split apart or pieces

which have already defrosted can be removed from the
appliance.

After defrosting, allow the food to stand for a further 5­15 minutes to come up to room temperature.

: Health risk!

When defrosting food from animal sources, you must remove
the liquid that escapes during defrosting. It must never come
into contact with other food. Bacteria could be transferred. After
defrosting, operate the combination steam oven for 15 minutes
using Hot air at 180 °C.

Defrosting fish fillets (P 35): Never place the fish fillets on top of
each other.

Defrosting whole poultry (P 36): Remove the packaging before
defrosting. Leave the poultry to stand after defrosting. With
large poultry (e.g. small turkeys), you can remove the giblets
after approximately 30 minutes standing time.

Disinfecting bottles P 38
Always clean the bottles with a bottle brush immediately after
drinking. Then clean them in the dishwasher.

Place the bottles in the perforated cooking container so that
they do not touch one another.

Dry the bottles with a clean cloth after sterilising. The process
corresponds to normal sterilisation by boiling.

Preserving P 39
This programme is suitable for fruits with a stone and core and
for vegetables (except beans).

Blanch pumpkin before preserving.
The programme is designed for 1 litre jars.
After the end of the programme, open the appliance door to

prevent cooking from continuing. Leave the jars to cool down
for a few minutes in the cooking compartment.

Cooking eggs P 40
Pierce the eggs before cooking. Do not place eggs on top of
each other. Size M corresponds to a unit weight of approx.
50 g.

Care and cleaning

In this section, you will find information on

■ care and cleaning of your appliance

■ the cleaning aid

■ descaling

: 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

Press any button to deactivate the automatic safety switch-off.
You can now make new settings.

■ corrosive or aggressive cleaners, or those containing

chlorine

■ cleaning agents with a high alcohol content

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 or the oven and grill
cleaning gel comes into contact with the front of the appliance
or other sensitive surfaces, wash it off immediately with water.

Remove food residues from the cooking compartment as soon
as the appliance has cooled. Burnt-on remains will be much
harder to remove later.

For heavy soiling use the cleaning aid (see section: Cleaning
aid).

13

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

Cooking compartment interior with evapo­rator dish

Hot, soapy water or a vinegar solution – use the enclosed cleaning sponge or a soft
dish brush.

Caution!

The cooking compartment could rust.: Do not use steel pads or scourers.
If the cooking compartment is very dirty, use only the oven and grill cleaning gel rec-

ommended by the after-sales service (product no. 463 582, also available online in the
eShop). Follow the manufacturers instructions. Other oven cleaners could damage the
appliance.
The cooking compartment light and the seals around the door, light and evaporator
dish must not come into contact with the gel. Allow the gel to act for a maximum of
12 hours and do not switch on the appliance during this time. Then rinse the cooking
compartment thoroughly with water (e.g. with a spray bottle) to remove all traces of the

gel
Water tank Soapy water – do not clean in the dishwasher.
Tank recess Rub dry after every use
Seal in the water tank lid Thoroughly dry after every use
Rails See section: Cleaning the rails
Door panels See section: Cleaning the door panels

Caution!

Risk of surface damage: After cleaning, wipe the door panels with glass cleaner, then

dry. Otherwise, stains will be caused that will not be able to be removed.
Door seal Hot soapy water
Accessories Soak in hot soapy water. Clean with a washing-up brush or sponge, or in the dish-

washer.

Clean stains caused by starchy food (e.g.rice) with a vinegar solution

Cleaning sponge

The enclosed cleaning sponge is very absorbent. Use the
cleaning sponge only for cleaning the cooking compartment
and for removing residual water from the evaporator dish.

Wash the cleaning sponge thoroughly before using for the first
time. You can wash the cleaning sponge in the washing
machine (hot wash).

Microfibre cloth

The honeycomb microfibre cloth is particularly suitable for
cleaning sensitive surfaces such as glass, glass ceramic,
stainless steel or aluminium (product no. 460 770, also
available from our online eShop). It removes liquid and greasy
deposits in one go.

Roasting set

If possible use the roasting set when roasting (ordering
no. HEZ36DB, also available online in the eShop). This
considerably reduces the amount of spatter from the roast and
therefore the amount of soiling in the cooking compartment.

Environmental protection

Unpack the appliance and dispose of the packaging in an
environmentally-responsible manner.

Environmental protection

This appliance is labelled in accordance with the
European Directive 2002/96/EU concerning used
electrical and electronic appliances (WEEE –
waste electrical and electronic equipment). The
guideline determines the framework for the return
and recycling of used appliances as applicable.

Tables and tips

The tables contain a selection of dishes which are particularly
suitable for your combination steam oven. You can find out
which operating mode, accessories and cooking time 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 cooking container, always
insert the baking tray underneath. Dripping liquid is caught.

Ovenware
When using ovenware, always place it in the middle of the wire
rack.
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).

Steam

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.

Cooking times and quantities
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.
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 cooking container, do not
pile them too high. It is better to use two containers.

Tips for saving energy

■ Only preheat the appliance if this is specified in the recipe or

in the operating instructions table.

■ Open the appliance door as infrequently as possible while

the food is cooking.

■ Use dark, black lacquered or enamelled baking tins for

baking. They absorb the heat particularly well.

■ It is best to bake several cakes one after the other. The

combination steam oven will still be hot. This reduces the
baking time for the second cake. You can also place two loaf
tins next to each other.

■ If the cooking time is relatively long, you can switch off the

combination steam oven 10 minutes before the end of the
cooking time and use the oven's residual heat to complete
the cooking process.

■ When steaming, you can cook on several levels at the same

time. When preparing foods with different cooking times,
those with the longest cooking time should be placed in the
oven first.

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.

Hot air

The Hot Air operating mode is ideal for sweet and savoury
baking, pot roasts and various cakes.

Hot air + Steam

The Hot air + Steam operating mode is particularly suited to the
preparation of roasted joints, chicken and baked items, such as
yeast-risen pastry and bread.

Roasts and chicken are nice and crisp on the outside and juicy
inside. What is more, meat loses less of its weight.

Baked items, such as yeast-risen pastry and bread, take on a
particularly attractive surface shine and they do not dry out.

20

Vegetables

Place the vegetables in the perforated cooking container and
insert at level 3. Insert the baking tray underneath at level 1.
Dripping liquid is caught.

When freezing, lay the food as flat as possible and in portion­sized pieces at -18 °C. Do not freeze excessively large
quantities. Once defrosted, food will not keep for as long and
spoils more quickly than fresh food.

Leave the food to defrost in the freezer bag, on a plate or on
the perforated cooking container. Always insert the baking tray
underneath. The food is then not left lying in the defrost water
and the cooking compartment remains clean.

Use the Steam operating mode.
If necessary, the meal can occasionally be split apart or pieces

which have already defrosted can be removed from the
appliance.

After defrosting, allow the food to stand for a further 5 -

15 minutes to come up to room temperature.

: Health risk!

When defrosting food from animal sources, you must remove
the liquid that escapes during defrosting. It must never come
into contact with other food. Bacteria could be transferred.
After defrosting, operate the combination steam oven for
15 minutes using Hot air at 180 °C.

Defrost meat
Allow pieces of meat which are to be breadcrumbed to defrost
to the point where seasoning and breadcrumbs adhere to the
meat.

Defrosting poultry
Remove from packaging before defrosting. You must tip the
defrost liquid away.

Before juicing, place the berries in a bowl and sprinkle with
sugar. Leave to stand for at least one hour to draw out the
juice.

Add the berries to the perforated cooking container and insert
at level 3. Slide the baking tray into level 1 to catch the juice.

Finally, place the berries in a cloth and squeeze out the rest of
the juice.

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.

Food Accessories Level Operating

Vegetables 1-litre preserving jars 2 Steam 100 30 - 120
Stone fruits 1-litre preserving jars 2 Steam 100 25 - 30
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
glasses.

Place the jars in the perforated cooking container. They must
not be in contact with 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.
