Water container
The maximum water level is 2.0 litres, the minimum 0.5 litres.
These levels are indicated on the container. Do not exceed
the maximum level.
The amount of water required for cooking will depend on the
type of food. Opening the door during cooking will increase
the amount used.
Depending on the food being cooked you may need to refill
the water container after 90 minutes. The appliance will
advise you when there is insufficient water in the container.
At the end of the cooking programme residual water in the
steam generator is pumped back into the water container.
The water container must be emptied after each use.
Noises
You will hear a pumping sound when the appliance is
switched on, during use and after switching it off.
This is the sound of water being pumped through the system
and is quite normal.
Temperature
Some functions have a default recommended temperature.
This temperature can be altered for the programme in use, or
for every time that programme is used (see "Settings").
Duration
You can set the duration from 1 minute (00:01) to 10 hours
(10:00).
Heating-up phase
During the heating-up phase the display will show the
temperature in the cooking compartment as it rises in all
programmes except for Automatic ones.
The duration of the heating-up phase will depend on the
quantity and the temperature of the food. In general the
heating-up phase will last for approx. 5 minutes. The duration
will be longer if you are preparing refrigerated or frozen food.
