1. Safety information
- Installing the appliance incorrectly, making incorrect settings on it or modifying
it can lead to damage, injury or even death.
- Read the installation and operating instructions for the combi steamer through carefully
before starting it up.
Use for intended purpose
- The appliance shall only be used for its intended purpose, namely the professional preparation of food.
- Eloma combi steamers are designed for use in commercial environments.
Method of operation
- Combi-steamer Joker B works with steam, combi-steam (combining the two media hot air and steam)
or convection (hot circulating air) depending on the cooking mode selected with steam.
- The combi-steamer enables you to prepare all food items carefully, economically and simultaneously.
Cooking modes:
Steaming Steaming is the best, most delicate and protective cooking mode.
Food is cooked gently in a constant temperature, surrounded by steam.
Combi-Cooking A combination of the two modes steaming and convection.
This means less shrinkage especially with roasts.
Convection The convection cooking mode is suitable for cooking all food
which should be crispy and brown. Roasting, grilling, baking.
Multifunction key “M” Assignment options for multifunction key:
Regeneration, LT Cooking, Delta-T Cooking

Loading/unloading
Risk of burns
- Depending on the selected cooking temperature, the food containers, grids and inside of the door in
particular may reach high temperatures. It is recommended that you wear protective gloves.
- The temperature of the glass part of the door and the casing may reach more than 60°C at some
points during operation.
- Containers with hot liquid foodstuffs must be covered during transportation to prevent the liquid
from spilling over the sides.
- Maximum permissible loading weight:
-Loading capacity 15 kg
Fixing the rack in place (tabletop appliances)
- Hanging in place: Push the rack up and hang it in place.
- Take care not to bend the tracks when doing this, as this will stop grids, trays and containers from
being held securely in place.
Working with core temperature sensors
- Core temperature sensors can become hot! Wear protective gloves.
- Take care not to prick yourself or anyone else with the point of the sensor.
- Before piercing, check the sensor for soiling to prevent cross-contamination between products.
- Do not leave the sensor hanging out of the cooking chamber. It is a sensitive measuring instrument,
