Set the correct boiling point for
water
Before cooking food for the first time,
you must set the boiling point for water,
as this varies depending on the altitude
the appliance is located at. This
procedure also flushes out the
waterways.
This procedure
must
be carried out
to ensure efficient functioning of your
appliance.
Only use cold mains tap water
(less than 20 °C). Never use distilled
or mineral water or other liquids.
Remove the water container (on the
right) and fill it up to the maximum
marker.
Push the water container into the
appliance until it connects.
You should then run the
Steam cooking
programme at 100 °C for 15 minutes.
Proceed as described in "Operation:
Steam cooking".
Set the correct boiling point for water
following a house move
If you move house, the appliance will
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 / Maintenance /
Descaling").
Heating up the appliance
To remove the grease from the ring
heating element, heat the appliance
up with nothing in it at 200 °C
using the
Fan plus
function for
30 minutes.
Proceed as described in "Operation:
Functions without steam".
There will be a slight smell the first
time the heating element is heated up.
The smell and any vapours will
dissipate after a short time, and do not
indicate a faulty connection or
appliance.
It is important to ensure that the
kitchen is well ventilated during this
operation.
