Tray
Useful for cooking desserts (with cooking duration less than 25 minutes, or without steam), rice, vegetables and cereals, this is also essential for collecting liquids resulting from steaming or defrosting foodstuffs contained in the perforated tray above.
Evaporation tray cover
Evenly distributes steam inside the oven.
Sponge
Useful for removing condensation from inside the oven.
Some models are not provided with all accessories.
The appliance accessories intended to come into contact with food are made of materials that comply with the provisions of current legislation.
Original supplied and optional accessories can be requested to Authorised Assistance Centres. Use only original accessories supplied by the manufacturer.
2.5 Other cooking containers
• You may also use your own containers for cooking in the oven, as long as they are resistant to high temperatures.
• For steam cooking, the use of metal containers is recommended. Metal facilitates better distribution of heat to the foods.
• It is normal for metal containers to deform somewhat during high­temperature cooking, but they will return to their original shape when they cool.
• Thick ceramic plates may require more heat than normal. Longer cooking times may be necessary.

Steam cooking
The steam cooking system cooks any type of food much more delicately. It is also ideal for defrosting foods rapidly, for heating up foods without hardening or drying them out, and for naturally removing salt from foodstuffs preserved with salt.
Steam function settings
Do not place food or any other object directly on the bottom of the oven. The base of the oven and the evaporation tray must always be left free.
1. Place the food inside the oven.
2. Turn the temperature knob to the required temperature (from 30°C to 100°C).
It is not possible to set a temperature above 100°C for steam cooking. If the temperature knob is turned beyond this value, the appliance will automatically ensure that the temperature of 100°C is not exceeded.
3. Turn the function knob to the steam
symbol . The timed cooking indicator
light will flash on the clock, and the display will show the default duration
(hours/minutes).
4. Turn the setting knob to the left or right to set the duration (max 2 hours).
It is not possible to activate steam cooking without setting a cooking duration.
At this point it is possible to set delay cooking.
Delay cooking is the function which allows cooking to be stopped at an established time depending on the time set by the user, after which the oven will switch off automatically.
5. If you do not wish to set delayed cooking, press the setting knob twice, or else wait a few seconds.
6. Go directly to step 10.
To set delayed cooking, proceed as follows:
7. Press the setting knob. The symbol flashes on the clock and the default
delay time (hours/ minutes) is shown on the display.
8. Turn the setting knob to the left or right within 5 seconds to set the duration (max 2 hours).
9. Press the setting knob, or wait 5 seconds from the last setting.

• Use cold tap water which is not too hard, softened water or still mineral water.
• Do not use distilled water, tap water with a high chloride content (> 40 mg/l), or other liquids.
11. Fill a container (e.g. a jug) with sufficient water for the cooking duration (cooking of a maximum duration of 75 minutes will require around 1.5 litres of water).
12. Open the oven door.
13. Rest the container on the open door.
Note: the container with the water must have a gross weight lower than 5 kg.
14. Extract the tube from its seat and immerse its end in the container until it reaches all the way to the bottom.

In the event that the water runs out, the appliance will automatically stop the cooking process, a buzzer will sound and the display will show a request to fill the reservoir with water.
16. When the appliance has finished taking in water (indicated by a buzzer), shake the tube to remove any residual water.
17. Return the tube to its original position, remove the container of water and close the door.
When the door is closed, an automatic system will automatically draw in any residual water in the tube to avoid drips. A bubbling noise may be heard; this is completely normal.
18. Press the confirmation knob to start steaming.
Each time the door is opened, the function in progress will stop and then automatically restart when the door is closed again.
To stop cooking at any point, hold down the confirmation knob for a few seconds and return the function knob and temperature knob to the 0 position.

Preheating stage
Steaming is always preceded by a preheating stage, which allows the appliance to heat up to cooking temperature.
The thermostat indicator light flashes to indicate that this stage is in progress.
When preheating finishes, the thermostat indicator light remains lit steadily, a buzzer sounds and cooking proceeds automatically.
Modifying the set data
During operation, it is possible to modify the cooking duration:
19. When the appliance is in the cooking phase, press the setting knob: the timed
cooking indicator light will start flashing.
20. Turn the setting knob to the left or right within 5 seconds to set the duration (max 2 hours).
21. Press the setting knob to confirm the set data.
If you set a time longer than that previously set meaning that the water in the reservoir is insufficient, cooking will proceed regardless. When the reservoir is empty, the
messages and
will flash on the
display to request that the reservoir be filled with water.
Towards the end, the appliance automatically switches off its heating elements in order to finish cooking using the residual heat inside the oven cavity.
