9

Description

Rack

Useful for supporting containers with food during cooking.

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.

2.5 Other cooking containers

You may also use your own containers for cooking, 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.

Use

4.Press the temperature knob to confirm the required cooking duration. The timed

cooking indicator light remains on steadily, while the temperature indication starts flashing.

5.If you wish to modify the default temperature (100°C), turn the temperature knob to the left or right until you reach the required value.

The minimum temperature which can be set is 30°C. Each movement of the temperature knob changes the value by 5°C.

6.Press the temperature knob to confirm the cooking temperature set. The temperature indication remains steady, while the programmed cooking indicator light starts flashing.

If cooking has just been performed with temperatures greater than 100°C, you must wait for the oven to cool in order to use the steaming function.

At this point it is possible to set programmed cooking.

Programmed 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.

If you do not wish to set timed cooking, just wait a few seconds until the indicator light

starts flashing, otherwise continue from step 10.

If you do wish to set timed cooking, proceed as follows:

7.While the programmed cooking

indicator light is flashing, turn the temperature knob to the right or left to set the cooking end time.

8.Press the temperature knob to confirm the cooking end time. The programmed

cooking indicator light remains on steadily.

9.After a few seconds, the indicator light

flashes on the display.

16

Use

10. Press the function knob. A request to fill the tank with water is shown on the display.

Filling the tank

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.

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.

15. Press the function knob to start drawing water into the appliance's tank.

The appliance will automatically draw the quantity of water necessary for cooking on the basis of the set duration.

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 tank with water.

EN

17

Use

16. When the appliance has finished taking in water, 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 function knob to start steaming.

Cooking can be interrupted at any time by pressing and holding the function knob for a few seconds.

Each time the door is opened, the function in progress will stop and then automatically restart when the door is closed again.

Preheating stage

Steaming is always preceded by a preheating stage, which allows the appliance to heat up to cooking temperature.

The temperature reached flashes to indicate that this stage is in progress.

When preheating finishes, the temperature reached 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 timed cooking indicator light is lit steadily and cooking is in

progress inside the appliance, press the temperature knob. The timed cooking

indicator light will start flashing.

18

Use

If you set a longer cooking time than that previously set - meaning that the water added to the tank will be insufficient - the indicator

light will flash on the display

for a few seconds. Cooking will proceed regardless, but when the tank is empty a request to add water will be shown on the display.

20. Turn the temperature knob right or left to alter the pre-set cooking time.

Towards the end, the appliance automatically switches off its heating elements in order to finish cooking using the residual heat inside the oven cavity.

Modifying programmed cooking

If programmed cooking is set, after modifying the cooking time, the end of cooking time must be re-set.

21. When the timed cooking and programmed cooking indicator

lights are lit steadily and the appliance is waiting for cooking to start, press the temperature knob. The timed cooking

indicator light will start flashing.

22.Turn the temperature knob right or left to alter the pre-set cooking time.

23.Press the temperature knob again. The

timed cooking indicator light switches off and the programmed

cooking indicator light starts flashing. The display shows the cooking end time.

24.Turn the temperature knob right or left to delay the cooking end time.

25.After a few seconds the timed cooking

and programmed cooking indicator lights stop flashing and programmed cooking restarts with the new settings.
