Safety features
27
Under normal circumstances, the appli‐
ance controls pressure and temperature
automatically. However, should a fault
occur, the appliance has a pressure re‐
lease and a safety valve to prevent high
pressure developing, as well as a safety
device to prevent overheating.
Depending on frequency of use, the
safety valve and the pressure release
valve should be replaced every 1 to 2
years.
Safety devices must not be altered
or tampered with.
Pressure release / Safety valve
The pressure release and the safety
valve may operate separately, together
or one after the other.
When either or both trip, steam will be
released above and below the door
hinge arm.
Press the Start/Stop button.
Wait until the cooling down phase
has been completed (see "Operation
- Interrupting a process").
Open the door.
First check whether the silicone
washer has been forced out of the
pressure release mechanism
. If it
has, fit a new one (see "Overview -
Accessories supplied") into the hold‐
er in the pressure release mechanism
inside the door.
The steam oven can now be used again
as normal.
If the pressure release mechanism
has not been activated (i.e. the sili‐
cone washer is still in its holder), re‐
move the
safety valve
from inside
the appliance door.
