4127003--0ABBE-E

Description of the unit
18 Operating instructions
3.3.2 Types of cooking
Steaming
Steaming is a cooking mode, in which the food to be cooked is
cooked gently by means of steam in a temperature range of 30 °C to
130 °C.
Combisteaming
Combisteaming is a cooking mode, in which the Steaming and
Convection cooking modes are combined. The temperature range
extends from 30 °C to 250 °C.
Convection
Convection is a cooking mode, in which the food to be cooked is
cooked without additional moisture in a temperature range of 30 °C to
300 °C.
Perfection (regeneration)
Perfection is a cooking mode that can be used to prepare cooled
cooked food quickly in a temperature range of 30 °C to 180 °C and
then keep it warm.
Delta-T cooking
Delta-T cooking is a cooking mode, in which the cooking temperature
depends on the core temperature of the food being cooked.
The cooking temperature is always higher than the current core
temperature by the set value (Delta-T value, cooking temperature
difference). The resulting cooking time is longer than with other
cooking modes.
Delta-T cooking is particularly well-suited for gentle cooking. The food
being cooked remains tender and juicy with little weight loss.
Low-temperature cooking
Low-temperature cooking is a cooking mode where the food to be
cooked is cooked in an especially gentle manner in a temperature
range of 30 °C to 100 °C.
The cooking time is considerably longer than at higher temperatures,
but no supervision is required and the cooking time can be extended
considerably without any loss in quality.
The food being cooked remains tender and juicy with little weight
loss.
Baking
Baking is a cooking mode, in which the texture of the food to be
cooked is loosened and then cooked and browned by Convection in a
temperature range of 30 °C to 220 °C. Before baking takes place, a
humidifying process with its associated acting time can be performed.
4127003--0ABBE-E

Description of the unit
19Operating instructions
3.3.3 Expanded cooking functions
Expanded cooking functions can be used to modify individual cooking
steps for the particular food being cooked.
The following expanded cooking functions are available:
PerfectHOLD
PerfectHOLD is a cooking function, in which the food to be cooked is
kept warm in the unit at a temperature range of 50 °C to 100 °C after
the actual cooking process, until it is ready to be served.
Ready2Cook (preheating)
For many cooking programs such as baking for example, the correct
starting temperature is important.
With Ready2Cook, the cooking zone can automatically be heated or
cooled to the correct starting temperature.
A screen-filling display gives information during the procedure about
the status.
Start-time preselection
When using the start time delay, temperatures that promote the
growth of harmful microorganisms on the food being cooked can
occur in the cooking zone. Observe food processing regulations.
Start-time preselection allows a waiting period to be set until the
program starts.
In this way, bottlenecks in production and preparation can be
avoided.
The prepared food to be cooked can be loaded into the unit and the
desired cooking program selected.
Steam Exhaust System (SES)
This function is activated as standard for all cooking programs that
have a cooking time longer than 6 minutes.
The Steam Exhaust System (SES) is activated automatically shortly
before the end of cooking.
After the cooking time has elapsed, the Steam Exhaust System (SES)
extracts the steam from the cooking zone. It is then possible to open
the cooking zone door without risk of injury.
4127003--0ABBE-E

Description of the unit
20 Operating instructions
RackControl2
RackControl is ideal for rolling cooking.
With the extended RackControl2 cooking function, different foods
such as potatoes, cauliflower, peas, carrots and meat can be cooked
simultaneously for different times.
RackControl2 monitors the various cooking times in one process.
When a cooking time has elapsed, a signal sounds and the food
being cooked can be removed.
The set temperature can be changed during an active cooking
process, without the process having to be stopped.
ChefsHelp
The extended ChefsHelp cooking function allows a cooking step to be
inserted, which at a certain time gives the user further help
information through text and images.
FamilyMix
With the extended FamilyMix cooking function, the appropriate
cooking programs for the currently set cooking mode are displayed
from the
Automatic cooking (autoChef) menu. The cooking programs
displayed have the same cooking climate and an identical or shorter
cooking time. Tapping the individual suggestions transfers the
cooking times for the particular products to the RackControl function,
and these can then be started during cooking when desired.
Manual humidification
