Steam Oven Functions English 54
Use the “+/–” buttons to scroll through the settings list,
pressing ENTER for the one you wish to adjust.
COUNTRY CODE : Instead of manually changing weight or
temperature units, you can go to COUNTRY CODE and
select either USA or CANADA. Choosing USA defaults the
weight and temperature units to lbs./°F. Choosing CANADA
defaults these settings to kg/°C. The Country Code display
will change to CUSTOM if you change either of the units by
going directly to them in the settings list.
TEMPERATURE UNITS : If you choose this setting, you
can override the COUNTRY CODE default and manually
select either degrees Fahrenheit (°F) or Celsius (°C) for the
temperature display. The calculation for conversion
between temperatures in Fahrenheit and Celsius is shown
below (T = temperature):
T°(Fahrenheit) = T°(Celsius) x 9/5 + 32
WEIGHT UNITS : If you choose this setting, you can
override the COUNTRY CODE default and manually select
either pounds (lbs.) or kilograms (kg) for food weight entry.
The calculation for conversion between weights in pounds
and kilograms is shown below (W = Weight):
W (Pounds) = W (kilograms) / 2.2
CALIBRATION : This setting resets the temperature
calibration to 210°F (100°C) the next time the STEAM mode
is used. (
See also “Automatic Calibration” on page 53).
WATER HARDNESS: The hardness of the tap or bottled
water ( NEVER distilled water) you put in the water tank
should be determined and entered with this setting when
the range is installed. As explained on
page 53 , you may
either use water hardness strips or contact your local water
utility to find out the hardness of your tap water. Enter
WATER HARDNESS and set it to this value using the
“+/–”
buttons for the number scale. If you move or if your water
source changes, you will need to reset the water hardness
value.
DESCALE : Your steam oven will need to be descaled (or
decalcified) at regular intervals to remove the calcium and
magnesium deposits from the water heated to make steam.
Once the water hardness is set, the steam oven display will
automatically alert you when descaling is required.
Note:
If you use softened water, you will not need to descale the
steam oven.
Detailed instructions for descaling the steam oven are
provided in the
“Care and Maintenance” section of this
manual starting on page 79. The oven cannot be used for
any other purpose while descaling is in progress.
STEAM CLEAN : You may use steam to dissolve food
residues and spills so that they can be easily wiped up.
Running the STEAM CLEAN cycle takes 30 – 35 minutes,
and the oven cannot be used for any other purpose while
steam cleaning is underway. Detailed instructions for steam
cleaning the oven are provided in the
“Care and
Maintenance” section of this manual starting on page 79.
FACTORY RESET: This feature will restore all settings to
these default values:
Country Code: USA
Temperature Units: Fahrenheit
Weight Units: Pounds
Calibration: On
Water Hardness: 3 – Medium
