Cleaning and heating up for
the first time
For the appliance to be fully functional,
it is necessary before using it for the
first time to run the DESCALE operation
k
, without adding descaling agent.
This process sets the appliance for the
boiling temperature of water, which will
vary depending on the altitude in your
area.
If this is not done too much steam will
be released from the appliance during
use.
Procedure:
^
Fill the water container with 1.0 l wa-
ter, place it in the appliance and clo-
se the door.
^
Select DESCALE
k
with the function
selector.
The following will be displayed:
^
Press
Start.
The time will count down from the star-
ting point of 33 minutes as shown in the
display.
Do not adjust the function selector
during this period as otherwise the
descaling programme will have to
be started from the beginning again.
An audible tone will sound when there
are 8 minutes remaining and the follo-
wing will alternate in the display:
^
Empty out the water container, re-fill it
with 1.0 l of fresh water, place it in the
steam oven and close the door.
^
Press
Start
.
The above procedure must be repeated
twice more when the audible tone
sounds.
Do not be alarmed at the amount of ste-
am emitted.
