Malfunctions may occur when using filtered or deminer-
alised water. The appliance may request that you top
up the water tank even though it may be full, or opera-
tion with steam is cancelled after approx. two minutes.
▶
If required, mix filtered or demineralised water with
the bottled non-carbonated mineral water with a ra-
tio of one to one.
Notes
¡
If you are using mineral water, set the water hard-
ness range to "very hard". If you are using mineral
water, you must only use non-carbonated mineral
water.
¡
If your tap water is very hard, we recommend that
you use softened water. If you are using only
softened water, set the "softened" water hardness
range.

7.3 Calibrating and cleaning the appliance
before using it for the first time
To ensure that the appliance is automatically calib-
rated, allow the appliance to run empty in steam opera-
tion. Before using the appliance to cook food for the
first time, you must clean the cooking compartment
and accessories.
Note:
The boiling point of water depends on the air
pressure. During the calibration process, the appliance
makes adjustments to adapt to the pressure conditions
in the location where it is installed.
Do not open the appliance door while calibration is in
progress, as this will cancel the calibration process.
Requirement:
The cooking compartment is cold or at
room temperature.
1.
Remove the product information and the accessor-
ies from the cooking compartment. Remove any
leftover packaging, such as polystyrene pellets, and
any adhesive tape that is in or on the appliance.
2.
Wipe the smooth surfaces in the cooking compart-
ment with a soft, damp cloth.
3.
Press to switch the appliance on.
