Steam oven cooking function
This cooking function uses steam to cook the food. During steam
cooking, the steam flows from the boiler into the oven cavity. The
steam heats the oven cavity and cooks the food.
This type of cooking is ideal for cooking any type of vegetables and
fish, preserving the colour, taste and goodness of the food.
IMPORTANT: This process MUST be followed when you are using the
steam oven cooking function.
oFill the water jug with distilled water, or if this is unavailable cold
drinking water. IMPORTANT: You may get scale building up in
the steam boiler if you use tap water.
oFill the water jug up to the 1.2 l mark. DO NOT fill the jug right
to the top. Otherwise the water that is pumped back into the jug
at the end of a cooking cycle may overflow.
oInsert the water jug into the water jug compartment.
oPush the water jug down completely, this ensures a perfect seal
between the tube located in the jug and the hydraulic circuit
inside of the oven.
oALWAYS ensure that the inox baking tray is inserted underneath
the perforated deep tray. This will catch any condensation, juice
or food that falls from the perforated deep tray.
oTurn the oven thermostat knob to the temperature that you
require.
oThe oven operating light will switch on to confirm that the oven
is heating. When you finish cooking and switch the oven
thermostat knob to the off position, the oven operating light will
switch off.
oThe oven operating light should be green in colour. If it turns
red, then there is a problem with the operation of the oven (see
the error code table on page 28).
oAfter cooking is completed, turn the oven thermostat knob to the
off position.
oWhen the oven cavity is sufficiently cooled, you should use a soft
cloth to dry any liquid that remains in the oven cavity.

18
oIMPORTANT: The water jug should be emptied after cooking.
Grill cooking function
This cooking function uses the upper heating element to cook the food.
This type of cooking is ideal for grilling medium to large portions of
sausages, bacon, steaks etc.
oIf you are using the grill function, whilst this doesn’t involve
steam, you can leave the water jug inside of the water jug
compartment. It will not affect the cooking abilities of the oven.
oTurn the grill thermostat knob to the temperature that you
require.
oThe grill operating light will switch on to confirm that the grill is
in use. When you finish cooking and switch the grill thermostat
knob to the off position, the grill operating light will switch off.
Cooking guidelines
oPlease refer to the information given on food packaging for
guidance on cooking temperatures and times. Once familiar with
the performance of your appliance, temperatures and times can
be varied to suit personal preference.
oMake sure that frozen foods are thoroughly thawed before
cooking, unless the instructions on the food packaging advise
that you can “cook from frozen”.
oYou should pre-heat the oven and not place food inside of it until
the pre-heating period is over.
oBefore cooking, check that any unused accessories are removed
from the oven.
oTry to open the door as little as possible to view the dishes.

the baking tray and NOT for removing it from the oven cavity.

oThe baking tray handle should not be left in position when the
appliance is switched on.
Accessories
The accessories supplied with the oven, allow you to get the optimum
performance from your appliance on the various cooking modes that
are available.
oThe drip pan and shelf accessories
can be placed on various levels by
positioning them in the side racks
located inside of the oven.
oThis allows you to select the most suitable level for cooking,
depending on what you are cooking and what cooking mode you
are using.

20

support surface for any single level cooking container.
oIt can also be used as a drip tray, for collecting cooking juices or
fat that may be generated during the steam cooking function.
oThe shelf should be used as a support surface; it should normally
be placed in positions 2, 3 or 4.
