Heating-up phase
While the steam oven is being heated
up to the set temperature, the display
will show
Heating-up
and the rising oven
compartment temperature.
When cooking with steam, 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. 7 minutes. The dur-
ation will be longer if you are cooking
refrigerated or frozen food. The heating-
up phase may also last longer if cook-
ing temperatures are low or if you are
using the
Sous-vide
cooking func-
tion.
Cooking phase
The cooking phase begins when the set
temperature is reached. During the
cooking phase, the duration remaining
will be shown in the display.
Steam reduction
If you are cooking at a temperature of
approx. 80 °C or above, the steam oven
door will automatically open a little
shortly before the end of the cooking
time to allow some of the steam to es-
cape.
Steam reduction
will appear on the
display. The door closes again automat-
ically.
Steam reduction can be switched off
(see “Settings – Steam reduction”). With
steam reduction switched off, a lot of
steam will escape when the door is
opened.
Oven interior lighting
For energy-saving reasons, the oven in-
terior lighting has been set at the fact-
ory to go out after the programme has
begun.
If you want it to stay on all the time the
oven is on, you will need to alter the de-
fault setting (see “Settings – Lighting”).
If the door is left open at the end of a
cooking programme, the oven interior
lighting will switch off automatically
after 5 minutes.
The lighting can be switched on for
15 seconds by touching the
button
on the control panel.
