3.2.2 Operating modes
Manual cooking
In the Manual cooking mode, individual cooking modes and
equipment functions can be actuated directly. The various cooking
modes and equipment functions can be modified individually.
Automatic cooking (autoChef)
In the automatic cooking mode, stored cooking programs can be
actuated and adapted as necessary.
3.2.3 Types of cooking
Steaming
Steaming is a cooking mode where the food to be cooked is cooked
gently in steam in a temperature range of 30°C to 130°C.
Combisteaming
Combisteaming is a cooking mode that can be used to cook large
roasts, casseroles and baked goods in a temperature range of 30°C
to 250°C.
Hot air
Hot air is a cooking mode where 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 150°C and
then keep it warm.
Delta-T cooking
Delta-T cooking is a cooking mode where the cooking temperature
depends on the core temperature of the food being cooked.
10015160-0ABBE--

Description of the unit
15Operating instructions
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 especially well-suited for general 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 where the food to be cooked is cooked and
browned by hot air in a temperature range of 30°C to 220°C; this
opens up the texture of the food. Humidification and an associated
idle time may precede baking.
3.2.4 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 where the prepared food is held in
the unit in 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 instance, the correct
starting temperature is important.
With Ready2Cook, the cooking zone can automatically be heated or
cooled to the correct starting temperature.
10015160-0ABBE--

Description of the unit
16 Operating instructions
Start time delay
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.
The start time delay can be used to set a waiting period 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 by default 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, 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.
RackControl
With the expanded cooking function RackControl, different foods such
as potatoes, cauliflower, peas, carrots and meat can be cooked
simultaneously for different times.
RackControl monitors the various cooking times in one process.
When one cooking time has elapsed, a signal sounds and the food
being cooked can be removed. RackControl is ideal for rolling
cooking.
FamilyMix
With the expanded cooking function FamilyMix, the appropriate
cooking programs are displayed in the Automatic cooking (autoChef)
menu for the currently set cooking mode. 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 individual products to the RackControl function
and these can then be started when desired during the cooking
process.
Manual humidification
Manual humidification allows the cooking zone humidity to be
increased during operation.
10015160-0ABBE--

Description of the unit
17Operating instructions
Manual humidification can be used only in the hot air and Delta-T hot
air cooking modes.
Idle time
With the idle time expanded cooking function, a cooking step can be
inserted during which the heating and the fans are programmed to
switch off for a certain period of time.
The info step can be used to display addition information while a
cooking program is running.
3.2.5 Core temperature measurement
When using core temperature measurement, the temperature inside
the food being cooked is measured by means of a sensor.
The core temperature sensor measures the core temperature at one
or more points, depending on the version. The temperature measured
at the coldest spot is used to control the cooking process.
As soon as the target core temperature has been reached, the
cooking process is ended automatically or, in the case of a multi-step
cooking program, advances to the next cooking step.
The use of core temperature measurement offers the following
benefits:
•Reduced energy and water consumption
•No overcooking
•Less weight lost by the food being cooked
The following core temperature sensors are available:
80 °C
60 °C
40 °C
120 °C
60 °C
Image: Core temperature measurement with 1- or 4-point core temperature sensor
•1-point core temperature sensor
•4-point core temperature sensor (optional)
3.2.6 Barcode scanner
The barcode scanner scans the barcode on the packaging of the food
to be cooked and transmits it to the unit. The unit then searches for
the appropriate cooking program for the food to be cooked. If several
appropriate cooking programs are found, they are displayed in a list.
A prerequisite is that the cooking programs are assigned a
corresponding identification when saved.

the USB port.
3.2.8 HACCP logging
All cooling programs run are recorded in the HACCP log.
The data are exported via the USB port.
3.2.9 VideoAssist
VideoAssist can be used to display videos with additional
explanations regarding operation.
3.2.10 WaveClean automatic cleaning
With WaveClean automatic cleaning,the cooking zone is cleaned with
the aid of a cleaning cartridge intended specifically for the program
and then rinsed clean.
3.2.11 CombiDoctor (self-diagnostic program)
CombiDoctor uses a selectable self-diagnostic program to check the
components used for climate control and cleaning.
