Cleaning should be carried out after each use.  Take a soft absorbent cloth to remove any excess moisture from 

the cavity.  Empty the water jug and leave the door open for the steam oven to completely dry.

Descaling of the steam oven is essential.  The appliance will prompt you by displaying ‘CAL’ in the display.  The 

frequency of descaling will depend on the water hardness levels and how frequently the appliance is used.  The 

process takes approximately 30 minutes to complete.

To start the descaling process, hold down the left-hand dial until ‘ENTR CAL’ appears in the display. Turn the 

dial to the right and at the same time hold down the right-hand dial. ‘0.5L’ will be displayed.  Using a coffee 

machine/kettle liquid descaling agent pour in 0.5 litres of the solution.  Press the right-hand dial to confi rm the 

start.  After the descaling process has been carried out, the machine will require rinsing.  ‘1.0L’ will appear in the 

display.  You will need to do this twice. ‘End’ will appear in the display to indicate the descaling is complete.

SETTING THE CLOCK

The oven will not operate unless the clock has been set. The display will show a fl ashing  ‘00:00’. Turn the left-

hand dial to the right / left to set the time.  Depress the dial to confi rm.

SETTING THE WATER HARDNESS

After setting the clock, the alternative display will show ‘Dur’ and the pre-set water hardness setting of ‘MED’.  

Turn the left dial to increase / decrease the water hardness level.  To accurately set the water harness, contact 

your local water board and refer to the chart in the instruction booklet.

PREPARING YOUR OVEN FOR USE

In order to remove any oily residues leftover from the manufacturing process, it is important to burn 

your oven off.  

Press in the right-hand dial to switch the steam oven on. In order for the steam combination oven to work, the 

water reservoir must be full.  Remove the reservoir and place back into the steam oven.  The cooking function 

options will illuminate.  Turn the dial to the right until the fan symbol illuminates.  Using the left-hand dial 

depress to confi rm the pre-set time. It is now possible to amend the temperature.  Turn the dial to the right to 

increase the temperature to the maximum of 220°C.  Depress to confi rm and to start. 

ADJUSTING THE CLOCK

Depress and hold the right-hand dial for a few seconds until the clock display fl ashes.  Turn the left-hand dial to 

the right / left to set the time.  Depress the dial to confi rm.

UNLIKE

 a microwave, 

the steam oven times 

do not increase with the 

quantity of food.  The 

time will only increase 

if the density increases.  

Cut vegetables to even 

shapes and sizes.

ONLY

 cover foods if 

the consistency might 

change with the addition 

of moisture. i.e. a 

casserole may become 

too liquid.

“The steam oven 
can do so much 
more than cook 
just fi sh and 
vegetables.”

“I never knew 
that it could cook, 
reheat and defrost.  
The results are 
so much better 
than using 
a microwave.”
