signalled by the message meaning that the water tank is
empty.
Warning! Only fill the water tank up to a maximum of 0.5
litres to ensure that the water does not overflow when it
is pumped back to the water tank. RISK OF OVERFLOW.
Emptying the water tank

reaches 75º C before it can be pumped back to the water
tank.
Warning: the water in the tank may be hot. Danger of
burns!
After the water is pumped back to the water tank, the display
will show the message “DEP” requiring the following actions:
1. Remove and empty the water tank.
2. Dry the water tank and introduce it back into the slot
located above the cavity. Clean and dry the cooking
space.
3. Leave the appliance door open so that the cooking space
can cool down and dry completely.
IMPORTANT NOTE: It is advisable to remove the water
tank and empty it after a cooking cycle. This prevents
the formation of bacteria and limestone inside the
appliance.
If the water tank has not been removed from the oven and a
new cooking cycle is started, the oven displays the warning
“DEP”.
This warning can be cleared by pressing the Stop key and
proceed with the new cooking cycle without removing and
emptying the water tank.
