This procedure must be carried out
to ensure efficient functioning of your
appliance.
Distilled or carbonated water or other
liquids could damage the steam
oven.
Only use cold, fresh tap water (be-
low 20 °C).

need to be re-set for the new altitude if
this differs from the old one by 300 m or
more. To do this, descale the appliance
(see “Cleaning and care – Descaling the
steam oven”).
