The boiling point depends on the air pressure. The
higher the altitude, the lower the air pressure, and
also the boiling point.
During the first steaming after installation, the
appliance calibrates the boiling point. During
calibration, the appliance is adjusted to the
pressure of the altitude where the appliance is
installed.
Calibrating the Steam Oven
1
Remove all accessories from the oven (cooking
inserts, wire rack). The oven must be empty
and cold.
2
Turn the temperature knob to 100 °C and the
function knob to the top position, steaming at
100% moisture.
The steam oven starts to calibrate.
During calibration more steam might escape from
the oven than during normal use. Calibration takes
about 15 minutes.
Note
Do not interrupt the calibration cycle. Do not open
the oven door during calibration.
Should the calibration process be interrupted by
opening the door or switching off the appliance, the
steaming function will not operate properly.
Switching on the appliance will automatically restart
calibration until the operation has been completed.
Recalibration is not necessary after a power failure.
Recalibrate the appliance manually if you should
move home to a different altitude.
•
First reset all parameters to the factory setting.
Refer to the chapter basic settings.
•
Now it is possible to recalibrate the appliance.
