General
Cooking containers
This steam combi oven is supplied with stainless steel
cooking containers.
Other containers, in a variety of sizes, both perforated and
solid, are available as optional extras (please refer to
"Optional accessories" in the operating instructions). This
enables you to choose the most suitable container for the
food you are preparing.
It is best to use perforated containers for
steam cooking
. The
steam can reach the food from all sides and the food is
cooked evenly.
Your own containers
You can also use your own containers. However, please note
the following:
– The container must be suitable for using in an oven and
must be steam resistant. Plastic containers can only be
used for steam cooking if the manufacturer has stated that
they are suitable for such use.
– Containers made from silicone should only be used with
the Fan plus function as they are not steam resistant.
– Thick sided containers are not very suitable for using with
steam. They do not conduct heat well and as a result
cooking durations will be considerably longer than those
given in the charts.
