GENERAL
T
HERE ARE
a number of accessories available on
the market. Before you buy, ensure that they are
suitable for cooking with steam and hot air in
combination.
P
LACE A CONTAINER
on the wire shelf. It can hold
greater weights than the baking tray or steam
tray can.
E
NSURE THAT THERE IS
a space of at least 30 mm
between the upper rim of the container and the
cavity ceiling to allow sufficient steam to enter
the container.
CHOOSING COOKING CONTAINER
U
SE PERFORATED COOKING
containers whenever
possible, e.g. for cooking vegetables. The steam
has free access to the food from all sides and the
food is cooked evenly.
S
TEAM EASILY REACHES
into the space between big
pieces of food such as large potatoes. This
ensures even and effective cooking. It enables a
large quantity to finish in the same amount of
time as a smaller quantity. Placing (spacing) food
to allow the steam even and easy access to
individual pieces of food enables it to be cooked
in the same amount of time as smaller quantities.
M
ORE COMPACT DISHES
such as casseroles or bakes,
or food such as peas or asparagus spears, which
have very little or no space between them will
take longer to cook because the steam has less
space in which to work.
SPONGE
T
HE SUPPLIED SPONGE
is used for wiping off residual
condensation that may be present in the cooled
oven after cooking. It is important that you allow
the oven to cool off to avoid scalding.
WIRE SHELF
T
HE WIRE SHELF
allows hot air circulation around
the food. Put food directly
on it or use it as support
for pots, cake tins and
other cooking containers.
When you put food directly on the wire shelf,
place the baking & drip tray under it.
BAKING & DRIP TRAY
U
SE THE BAKING & DRIP TRAY
beneath the wire shelf
and steam tray. It may also be used as a cooking
utensil or as a baking tray.
T
HE BAKING
&
DRIP TRAY
is
used to collect the
dripping juices and food
particles that otherwise
would stain and soil the
interior of the oven. Avoid placing vessels directly
on the oven floor.
STEAM TRAY
U
SE THE STEAM TRAY
for foods such as fish,
vegetables and potatoes.
U
SE THE OVEN WITHOUT THE
STEAM TRAY
for foods such
as rice and grains.
WATER CONTAINER
T
HE WATER CONTAINER IS LOCATED
behind the door
and is accessible as soon as the door is opened.
A
LL COOKING FUNCTIONS
, except Forced air, require
the water container to be full.
F
ILL WATER CONTAINER
to the
"MAX" mark with tap water.
U
SE ONLY
fresh tap water or still
bottled water. Never use
distilled or filtered water nor
any other liquids in the water
container.
I
T IS IMPORTANT TO EMPTY THE WATER CONTAINER AFTER
EACH USE
.
This is for hygienic reasons. It also
prevents condensate from building up inside the
appliance.
C
AREFULLY
(i.e. slowly, so as not to spill) pull the
water container out of its compartment. Keep it
horizontal to allow remaining water to drain out
of the valve seat.
PROBE
Use only the temperature probe
recommended for this oven.
T
HE PROBE IS DESIGNED
to
measure the internal
temperature of your food
between the range of 30 °C
and 100 °C. As soon as the set
temperature is reached, the appliance
switches off and displays
"Temperature is reached" in the
display.
N
EVER IMMERSE
the probe in water
when cleaning. Simply wipe clean
with a damp cloth or kitchen roll
after use.
