Cooking compartment
Press the
w
symbol to open the appliance door.
The cooking compartment has three shelf positions. The shelf
positions are counted from the bottom up.
Use the enclosed cleaning sponge to empty the evaporator
dish after every cooking operation. Otherwise, the dish may
overflow during the next cooking operation.
Caution!
Do not place anything on the cooking compartment floor. Do
not cover it with aluminium foil. A build-up of heat could
damage the appliance.
The cooking compartment floor and the evaporator dish must
always be kept clear. Always place ovenware in a perforated
cooking container or on a wire rack.
Accessories
Use only the accessories supplied with the product or available
from the after-sales service. They are specially designed for
your appliance.
Your appliance is equipped with the following accessories:
You can obtain further accessories from specialist retailers:
Automatic calibration
The boiling temperature of water depends on the air pressure.
During calibration, the appliance is adapted to the pressure
conditions in the location where it is installed. This happens
automatically when you first use the appliance (see section:
First use). More steam develops than usual.
It is important that the appliance steams without interruption for
20 minutes at 100 °C. Do not open the appliance door during
this time.
If the appliance was not able to calibrate itself automatically (for
example, because the appliance door was opened), the
calibration process is carried out again during the next cooking
operation.
After moving house
So that the appliance automatically adjusts itself to its new
location, you must reset the appliance to the factory settings
(see section: Basic settings) and repeat the initial start-up
process (see section: First use).
After a power cut
The appliance saves the calibration settings even in the event
of a power cut or disconnection from the mains. Recalibration
is not necessary.
Before using for the first time
In this section you will find out which steps are required before
using the appliance for the first time:
■
setting the clock
■
changing the water hardness range if required
■

■
cleaning the accessories before use
Your appliance was thoroughly factory tested for proper
operation. As a result, there may already be a small amount of
condensation in the appliance.

Setting the water hardness range
Descale your appliance regularly. This is the only way to
prevent damage.
Your appliance automatically displays when it needs descaling.
It has been preset to water hardness range "medium". Change
the value if your water is softer or harder.
You can check the water hardness with the test strips supplied
or ask your water supplier.
If your water is very hard, we recommend that you use softened
water.
You can only dispense with descaling completely if you
exclusively use softened water. If this is the case, change the
water hardness to "softened".
You can change the water hardness range in the basic settings
when the appliance is switched off.
