IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT THE USE OF THE
APPLIANCE
Do not use the cooking compartment door as a shelf.
Do not store any food in the appliance. This can lead to
corrosion.
Ovenware Use only the accessories provided. They are specially
designed for your appliance.
Caution! When steaming in the perforated steam dish, always
insert the multi pan underneath. Dripping liquid is caught.
Ovenware must be heat and steam resistant. Silicone
baking tins are not suitable for combined operation with
hot air and steam.
Do not use ovenware that shows signs of rust. Even the small-
est spots of rust can lead to corrosion in the cooking compart-
ment.
Care and cleaning The cooking compartment in your appliance is made of enamel.
Improper care can lead to corrosion in the cooking compart-
ment. Refer to the care and cleaning instructions in the instruc-
tion manual.
Salts are very abrasive. If salt is deposited in the cooking com-
partment, rust could develop in places.
Acidic sauces, such as ketchup and mustard, or salted foods,
e.g. cured roasts, contain chloride and acids. These affect the
stainless steel surface. Clean the cooking compartment after
each use.
DO NOT use harsh abrasive cleaners or sharp metal
scrapers to clean the oven door glass since they can scratch
the surface, which may result in shattering of the glass
(if provided).

SETTING THE COOKING FUNCTION MODE
Turn the Cooking Function Select Knob to select the
desired oven function.
Oven Modes
The following table represents the various oven modes and settings of your oven.
Use the cooking guide tables for those modes as guidelines for cooking.
Mode Description
Steam Mode
Food is cooked by steam provided by the steam generator and in-
jected into the cavity by several jet nozzles.
This mode is suitable for steaming food like vegetables, sh, eggs,
fruits and rice. When cooking by using this mode, always ll the water
tank with fresh water.
Temperature range: 40~100 °C
Steam Combi Mode
Food is cooked by fan oven mode and the help of steam. The steam
is provided by the steam generator and injected into the cavity by
interval.
This mode is suitable for baking pastries, such as puff pastry, apple
pies, brioches, yeast buns, bread rolls, croissants, baguettes and
yeast cakes. The superheated steam will provide a nice crisp, shiny
surface and uffy structure. Meat roasts and sh will keep a more juicy
texture inside. When cooking with this mode always ll the water tank
with fresh water.
Temperature range: 100~230 °C
Regeneration/Reheat Mode
Food is reheated by fan oven mode and the help of steam. The steam
is provided by the steam generator and injected into the cavity by
interval.
This mode is suitable for plated meals. Dishes can be gently reheated
without dry out. When reheating with this mode always ll the water
tank with fresh water.
Temperature: 120 °C

oven use _15
04 OVEN USE
Mode Description
Fan Oven Mode
Food is heated by two heating elements on top of cavity and one
bottom heating element, while the fan from side distributes the hot air
evenly. This setting is suitable for roasting meat, baking gratins and
cake.
Temperature range: 40~230 °C
Grill Mode
Food is heated by the top heating elements. We recommend this
mode for grilling steaks and sausages as well as cheese toasts.
Defrost Mode
Frozen food is defrosted by steam. The steam is provided by the
steam generator and injected into the cavity by interval.
This mode is suitable for frozen meat, poultry, sh and fruit. When
defrosting with this mode always ll the water tank with fresh water.
Temperature range: 40~70 °C
Keep warm Mode
The food will be kept warm by help of the heat, provided by the bottom
heating element
(Do not keep food warm for longer than 2 hours. Warm food spoils
more quickly.)
Temperature: 70 °C
Automatic Functions
The following table represents additional programmes and functions.
Mode Description
Auto Cook Programmes
40 pre-programmed auto cook settings can be selected for your con-
venience. Time and temperature will be set automatically.
You simply select programme and weight your dish and start the
steam cooking process.
Steam Clean
