9 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
In the event that personal clothing or hair catches fire,
drop and roll immediately to extinguish flames.
Keep doors shut unless necessary for cooking or
cleaning purposes. Do not leave open doors
unattended.
Have an appropriate fire extinguisher available,
nearby, highly visible and easily accessible near the
appliance.
Do not heat or warm unopened food containers. Build-
up of pressure may cause the container to burst and
cause injury.
Smother flames from food fires other than grease fires
with baking soda. Never use water on cooking fires.
Always place oven racks in desired location while
oven is cool. Always use oven mitts, when the oven is
warm. If a rack must be moved while oven is hot, do
not let potholder contact the heating elements.
WARNING
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY TO PERSONS IN
THE EVENT OF A GREASE FIRE, OBSERVE THE
FOLLOWING:
CAUTION
a) SMOTHER FLAMES with a close-fitting lid,
cookie sheet, or metal tray, then turn off the
burner. BE CAREFUL TO PREVENT BURNS. If
the flames do not go out immediately, EVACUATE
AND CALL THE FIRE DEPARTMENT.
b) NEVER PICK UP A FLAMING PAN – You may be
burned.
c) DO NOT USE WATER, including wet dishcloths
or towels – a violent steam explosion will result.
d) Use an extinguisher ONLY if:
To avoid possible injury or damage to the appliance,
ensure rack is installed exactly per installation
instructions and not backwards or upside down.
Always use dry potholders. Moist or damp potholders
on hot surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do
not let potholder touch hot heating elements. Do not
use a towel or other bulky cloth.
WARNING
‒ You know you have a Class ABC extinguisher,
and you already know how to operate it.
‒ The fire is small and contained in the area
where it started.
‒ The fire department is being called.
‒ You can fight the fire with your back to an exit.
Scalding hazard
Movement when opening the appliance door and when
removing the cookware can cause hot liquid to spray
out. Do not stand too close to the appliance when
opening it. Open appliance door carefully. Remove
cookware carefully. Keep children away.
Secure all loose garments, etc. before beginning. Tie
long hair so that it does not hang loose, and do not
wear loose fitting clothing or hanging garments, such
as ties, scarves, jewelry, or dangling sleeves.
Burn Prevention
DO NOT TOUCH HEATING ELEMENTS OR
INTERIOR SURFACES OF OVEN - Heating elements
may be hot even though they are dark in color. Interior
surfaces of an oven become hot enough to cause
burns. During and after use, do not touch, or let
clothing, potholders, or other flammable materials
contact heating elements or interior surfaces of oven
until they have had sufficient time to cool. Other
surfaces of the appliance may become hot enough to
cause burns. Among these surfaces are oven vent
openings, surfaces near these openings and oven
doors.
Use caution when cooking foods with high alcohol
content (e.g. rum, brandy, bourbon) in the oven.
Alcohol evaporates at high temperatures. There is a
risk of burning as the alcohol vapors may catch fire in
the oven. Use only small quantities of alcohol in foods,
and open the oven door carefully.
WARNING
Risk of scalding
Hot liquid may spill over the sides of cooking
accessories when they are removed from the cooking
compartment. Carefully remove cooking accessories
with oven mitts.
Exercise caution when opening the appliance.
Standing to the side, open the door (or drawer) slowly
and slightly to let hot air and/or steam escape. Keep
your face clear of the opening and make sure there
are no children or pets near the unit. After the release
of hot air and/or steam, proceed with your cooking.

9 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
Cleaning Safety
WARNING
Risk of severe burns! Do not clean the appliance
Risk of scalding
immediately after turning it off. The water in the
evaporator dish is still hot. Wait until the appliance
has cooled down.
Hot steam can escape when you open the appliance
door. Steam is not visible at certain temperatures. Do
not stand too close to the appliance when opening it.
Open the appliance door with caution. Keep children
away.

Scratched glass in the appliance door can burst. Do
not use any glass scrapers or strong or abrasive
cleaning agents.
Risk of burns
Hot steam can leak during operation. Do not touch the
ventilation openings. Keep children away.
WARNING
Risk of electrical shock
Child Safety
Moisture entering the appliance can cause an
electrical shock. Don't use a high-pressure cleaner or
steam cleaner.
When children become old enough to use the
appliance, it is the legal responsibility of the parents
or legal guardians to ensure that they are instructed in
safe practices by qualified persons.
Do not allow anyone to climb, stand, lean, sit, or hang
on any part of an appliance, especially a door,
warming drawer, or storage drawer. This can damage
the appliance, and the unit may tip over, potentially
causing severe injury.
Cookware Safety
Do not place food directly on oven bottom.
Follow the manufacturer’s directions when using
cooking or roasting bags.
Do not allow children to use this appliance unless
closely supervised by an adult. Children and pets
should not be left alone or unattended in the area
where the appliance is in use. They should never be
allowed to play in its vicinity, whether or not the
appliance is in use.
WARNING
Risk of electric shock
Use of a wrong core temperature probe can damage
the insulation. Use only the core temperature probe
intended for this appliance.
CAUTION
Ovenware must be heat and steam resistant. Silicone
baking pans are not suitable for Combination mode.
Items of interest to children should not be stored in an
appliance, in cabinets above an appliance or on the
backsplash. Children climbing on an appliance to
reach items could be seriously injured.
When using Steam mode with a perforated cooking
pan, always slide the baking pan underneath it. The
pan will catch any drippings.
The oven bottom and the evaporator dish must always
remain clear. Always place ovenware on the rack or in
the perforated cooking pan.

Do not detach the door seal. The appliance door
will no longer close properly if the door seal is
damaged. Adjoining furniture frontages may be
damaged. Have the door seal replaced.
Causes of damage
NOTICES:
Do not hold or carry the appliance by the door
handle. The door handle cannot carry the weight
of the device and could break off.
▯
▯
▯
Do not place anything directly on the oven floor.
Do not line it with aluminum foil. Heat build-up
can damage the appliance.
The oven bottom should always remain clear.
Always place dishes in a perforated baking pan or
on a rack.
Environmental protection
We recommend you install a descaling system for
hard mains water. You can inquire with your
waterworks to obtain information about your
mains water.
Unpack the appliance and dispose of the packaging in
line with environmental requirements.
▯
▯
▯
Aluminum foil may not contact the door pane in
the oven. This can cause permanent discoloration
of the door pane.
Tips for saving energy
Dishes must be heat and steam resistant. Silicone
baking dishes are not suited for combination
operation with steam.
▯
▯
▯
Open the appliance door as little as possible
while cooking.
Use dark, black-painted or enamelled baking
forms. These absorb the heat particularly well.
Use only original accessories in the oven interior.
Rusting material (such as serving platters or
knives and forks) can cause corrosion in the oven
interior.
It is best to bake several cakes in succession. The
steam oven is still warm. This shortens the baking
time for the second cake. You can also slide in
two loaf tins next to each other.
▯
▯
▯
▯
Use original small parts (e.g. knurled nuts) only.
Reorder small parts through out spare parts
service if these should be lost..
▯
▯
For longer cooking times, you can switch off the
steam oven 10 minutes before the end of the
cooking time and you can use the residual heat to
finish cooking.
When steaming with a perforated baking dish,
always push the baking sheet or the unperforated
baking dish beneath it. This will catch drippings.
When steaming, you can cook simultaneously on
several levels. If dishes require different cooking
times, insert the dishes that require the longest
time first.
Do not leave moist groceries in a closed oven for
an extended period of time. It can lead to
corrosion inside the oven.
Salt, spicy sauces (e.g. ketchup or mustard) or
salted dishes (e.g. cured roast) contain chlorides
and acids. These corrode the surfaces of
stainless steel. Always remove residues
immediately.
▯
▯
Fruit juice can leave stains in the oven. Always
remove fruit juice immediately and wipe up first
with a damp and then a dry cloth.
Your appliance's oven interior consists of high-
grade stainless steel. Corrosion can occur in the
oven interior if it is not cared for properly.
Observe the care and cleaning notes in the
operating instructions. After every use, clean the
oven interior straight after the appliance has
cooled down. After cleaning, dry the oven interior
with the drying program.

After a removal
Repeat calibration so that the appliance will
automatically adapt again to the new location.
Calibrating
The boiling point of water depends on barometric
pressure. As air pressure drops with increasing
elevation, the boiling point drops as well. During
calibration, the appliance sets the boiling point to the
pressure conditions at the place where it is installed.
After resetting to factory settings
After resetting to factory settings in the basic settings
menu the appliance has to be recalibrated.
After a power failure
It is important for the appliance to steam for
20 minutes at 212° F (100°C) without interruption. Do
not open the appliance door during this time.
The appliance saves the calibration settings, even
after a power failure or a disconnection from the
mains. It need not be recalibrated.
Notes
‒
‒
Calibrate the appliance only when it is cold.
Grease filter
During calibration, the appliance generates more
steam than it normally would do.

Insert the core temperature probe in
the food to be cooked
Core temperature probe
Insert the core temperature probe in the food to be
cooked before you place it in the oven interior.
The core temperature probe enables exact cooking to
the spot. It measures the temperature inside the food
being cooked. Automatic switching off when the
desired core temperature is reached ensures that
each cooked food is cooked precisely.
Insert the metal tip at the thickest point in the food
you are cooking. Make sure that the end of the tip is
approximately in the center. It must not be placed in
the fat and must not touch any cookware or bones.
Use the included core temperature probe only. You
can purchase one as a spare part from after-sales
service or in the online shop.
If there are several pieces, insert the core
temperature probe in the middle of the thickest piece.
The core temperature probe is damaged at
temperatures above 480°F (250°C). Therefore, only
ever use it in your appliance at a maximum
temperature setting of 445°F (230°C).
Insert the core temperature probe completely, if
possible.
In the case of poultry, make sure that the tip of the
core temperature probe is not in the cavity in the
center, but in the meat between the belly and upper
leg.
Always remove the core temperature probe from the
oven interior after use. Never store it in the oven
interior.
After every use, clean the core temperature probe with
a moist cloth. Do not wash it in a dishwasher!
9
WARNING
Risk of electric shock
Use of a wrong core temperature probe can
damage the insulation. Use only the core
temperature probe intended for this appliance.
9
WARNING
Risk of burns
The oven interior and the core temperature
probe become very hot. Use oven mitts to plug

Tables and tips
‒
When steaming, defrosting, proofing dough, and
reheating, you can use up to three slide-in levels
at the same time (slide-in levels 2, 3, and 4 from
the bottom). This way there is no taste transfer.
This is how fish, vegetables, and dessert can be
prepared at the same time. The cooking times
specified may be longer with a large quantity of
food.
Notes
‒
The cooking times specified are intended as a
guide. The actual cooking time depends on the
quality and temperature of the food before
cooking, the weight and thickness of the food to
be cooked.
‒
Always preheat the appliance. Here's how to get
the best cooking results.
‒
‒
Baking can only be done on one level; for this,
use the second level from the bottom.
The cooking times specified refer to a pre-heated
appliance. Cook the food approx. 5 minutes
longer if the appliance is not pre-heated.
Do not allow the food to touch the cooking
compartment, grease filter or back wall of the
oven.
‒
‒
‒
‒
‒
The specifications refer to average quantities for
four people. If you would like to prepare more,
you should calculate a longer cooking time.
‒
‒
‒
‒
The steam baking oven door must close securely.
Always keep the sealing surfaces clean.
Use the cookware specified. If you use other
cookware, cooking times may be longer or
shorter.
Do not crowd the grid and containers too tightly.
This guarantees optimal steam circulation.
Leave the grease filter in the appliance at all
times.
Begin with the shortest time specified if you have
not made a dish before. If necessary, you can
always cook the food longer.
If you want to prepare dishes in steam and the
appliance is hotter than 100°C (e.g. because
something was baked in it previously), let the
appliance cool off before steaming. Otherwise
the dishes will dry out due to the excessive heat.
Make sure to open the cooking compartment door
of the pre-heated appliance only briefly and to fill
the appliance quickly.
If you are using only one cooking container, insert
it on the second level from the bottom.

than in boiling water. Their taste, color and
consistency are preserved better. Vitamins and
ingredients that are soluble in water are hardly
washed out. As the steam oven operates without
pressure at only 212 °F (100°C), foods are
prepared considerably more gently than in a
pressure cooker, for example.
Blanch vegetables for up to four minutes in the
preheated appliance. If vegetables or fruits are
not served straight away, quench them in icy
water to prevent simmering in the residual heat.

Fish
▯
Steaming does not dry out fish and its intrinsic
taste and texture are preserved very well.
▯
▯
▯
When using the perforated cooking receptacle:
you can grease it lightly if fish should stick to it
too easily.
▯
For reasons of hygiene, fish and other critical
foodstuffs should have a core temperature of at
least 143 - 149° F (62 - 65°C) after cooking. This
is simultaneously the ideal cooking point.
Insert the unperforated cooking insert in the first
level from below to avoid extreme soiling of the
oven interior with intensively smelling fish juice.
▯
Do not salt fish until after cooking it. This
preserves the natural aroma and less water is
extracted from the fish.
In the case of fillets with skin: place the fish with
its skin side pointing upward to preserve its
structure and aroma.

Meat – cooking at higher temperatures
▯
▯
▯
The combination of steam and hot air is the
optimum cooking process for many types of
meats. In this mode of operation, the oven
compartment is sealed hermetically and moisture
prevents the drying-out effect of the conventional
hot air. Thanks to variable humidity control, you
can achieve the optimum climate for every food.
▯
▯
▯
When using the perforated cooking inserts or the
rack, place an unperforated cooking receptacle
beneath it. Pour some water into the unperforated
cooking insert to prevent baking in. You can also
insert vegetables, wine, spices and herbs to
arrive at a tasty basis for sauces.
If you would like to cook meat rare or medium-
rare: open the door 5°C (approx. 40 °F) before
the required core temperature has been reached
and wait until the target temperature is reached.
This prevents overcooking and you give the meat
the time it needs to settle.
The cooking times specified serve to help you
orientate yourself and depend very much on the
initial temperature of the food and the length of
time it is browned. Use the core temperature
probe for better control. You will find notes and
optimum target temperatures in the section
entitled Core temperature probe.
Letting meat settle: let the meat settle for another
10-15 minutes after cooking. In this way, the meat
can "relax". Circulation of the meat juice
diminishes and there are fewer losses of juice
when cutting open the meat.
Take meat out of the fridge one hour before
preparing it.

Meat/poultry – slow cooking
▯
Vigorously browned meat matures over a longer
time at a lower temperature. As a result, the meat
evenly becomes gentle pink and extraordinarily
juicy apart from a very thin edge. And it is neither
necessary to turn the meat nor pour juice over it.
▯
Game tastes stronger after low-temperature
cooking than when prepared by classical
methods.
▯
▯
Use the "Slow cooking" mode › . The moisture
escaping from the food stays in the cooking
compartment and prevents drying out of prepared
foods.
▯
The cooking times specified are only a
recommendation and depend very much on the
initial temperature of the food and the length of
time it is browned. Use the core temperature
sensor for better control. You will find notes and
optimum target temperatures in the section
entitled Core temperature sensor.
Please note that you cannot achieve any core
temperatures above the cooking compartment's
temperature. As a rule of thumb: the set oven
temperature should be 50 - 60°F (10-15 °C)
above the desired core temperature.
▯
▯
Take meat out of the fridge one hour before
preparing it.
▯
You can reduce the temperature to 140°F (60 °C)
towards the end of the cooking time. Thus, you
can prolong the cooking time (for example, if
guests arrive late). If you want to stop the cooking
process, the interior temperature must not be
higher than the desired core temperature. Thus,
large pieces can stay in the oven for 1 - 1.5 hours,
while small pieces can stay there for 30 -
45 minutes.
For hygienic reasons, sear the meat briefly at a
high temperature in the pan from all sides before
cooking it. As a result, a crust is produced that
prevents leaking of the meat juice and ensures a
typical roast aroma.
▯
Season carefully: slow maturing of the meat
boosts all aromas.
▯
Serve food on preheated cookware.

drying out which, especially in the case of poultry,
is crucial. At the same time, the high temperature
lends crispy browning to the surface. The heat
transmitted by the hot steam is twice as high as in
the case of conventional hot air and it reaches all
parts of the food. This is why a chicken becomes
browned and crispy all-round, and nevertheless
the breast meat stays tender and juicy.
If you season poultry mainly with spices and with
little or no oil, the skin will become crispier.

Using the steam oven, you can prepare your
baked items with the optimum humidity:
▯
You can only bake on one level in the steam oven.
Insert the unperforated cooking container into the
second level from below. When using a high
baking tin, place it on the wire rack, which you
then insert in the first level from below.
‒
‒
‒
a | Convection + 0% Humidity:
moisture can escape in the case of fruit cakes
and quiche. This mode corresponds to hot air
in the conventional oven.
` | Convection + 30% Humidity:
mixed cake does not dry out. The intrinsic
humidity in a food cannot escape from the
oven interior.
_ - \ | Convection + 60 - 100% Humidity:
puff pastry and yeast-risen pastries become
looser on the inside and crispy on the outside
with a gloss.
▯
▯
Always leave the grease filter in place when
baking.
Misting brings additional steam to the food during
baking with Convection + 0% Humidity or with
Convection + 30% Humidity when touching the 2
symbol. Use the misting function for example
when baking bread at the beginning of the baking
time and the bread will increase in volume and
will get a crispy crust.

Raising dough
▯
The steam oven offers the ideal climate for raising
dough and dough mixtures or dough pieces
without drying them out.
▯
▯
The bowl need not be covered with a moist cloth.
Raising only takes half as much as it used to.
The specified dough proofing time is for your
orientation only. Raise dough until its volume has
doubled.
▯
Use the "Dough proofing" mode V to do this.

such as berries or bits of meat. Fish need not
thaw fully. It suffices if the surface is soft enough
to absorb the spices.
Thawing
▯
In the steam oven you can gently and evenly thaw
deep frozen foods faster than at room
temperature.
9
WARNING
▯
▯
Use the "Defrosting" mode W to do this.
Health risk
When thawing animal foodstuffs, it is imperative
to remove the liquid that arises during thawing.
It must never come into contact with other
foodstuffs. Germs could be transmitted.
Slide the unperforated cooking insert
underneath the food. Pour away the collected
thawing liquid from meat and poultry. Then
clean the sink and rinse with plenty of water.
Clean the cooking insert in hot soapy solution
or in a dishwasher.
The specified thawing times are for your
orientation only. The time it takes to thaw
depends on the size and weight of the frozen
food: freeze your foods flatly or individually. This
shortens the thawing time.
▯
Take foods out of the packaging before thawing
them.
▯
▯
Thaw only the amount you immediately need.
Remember: in certain circumstances, thawed
food does not keep so well and goes bad faster
then fresh food. Immediately process thawed food
and cook it thoroughly.
After defrosting, operate the steam oven for
15 minutes with Convection at 350 °F (approx.
180°C).
▯
After half of the thawing time, turn meat or fish
over fish or separate fragmentary frozen food

Boiling down
▯
In the steam oven, you can preserve fruit and
vegetables without much effort.
▯
▯
Check and conscientiously clean preserving jars,
rubber rings, clamps and springs.
▯
If possible, boil down foodstuffs directly after
shopping or harvesting. Prolonged storage
reduces vitamin content and leads easily to
fermentation.
Disinfect rinsed jars before preserving in your
steam oven at 212°F (100 °C) and 100% humidity
for 20-25 minutes.
▯
▯
Place preserving jars in the perforated cooking
receptacles. They must not touch each other.
▯
▯
Use only fruit and vegetables that are in a perfect
state.
Open the oven interior door after the cooking
time has elapsed. Do not remove preserving jars
from the oven interior until they have cooled down
fully.
The steam oven is not suitable for preserving
meat.

Preparing yoghourt
▯
You can prepare your own yoghourt in the steam
oven.
▯
In the case of yoghourt ferment, pay attention to
the notes on the packaging.
▯
Heat up pasteurized milk to 195°F (90°C) on the
cook-top to avoid disturbing the yoghourt
cultures. Ultra heat treated milk (UH milk) does
not need heating. (Note: If you produce yoghourt
with cold milk, this will prolong the maturation
time.)
▯
▯
Pour the yoghourt into rinsed jars.
You can disinfect the rinsed jars in your steam
oven at 212°F (100°C) and 100% humidity for 20 -
25 minutes before pouring in the yoghourt. Make
sure you allow the jars and the oven interior to
cool down before you pour the yoghourt into the
jars and place the jars in the appliance.
▯
▯
Important! Allow the milk to cool to 105°F (40°C)
in a water bath to avoid destroying the yoghourt
cultures.
▯
▯
After preparing it, place the yoghourt in the
fridge.
Stir natural yoghourt with declared yoghourt
cultures into the milk (1 - 2 teaspoons of yoghourt
for every 100 ml (approx. 2.1 pints)).
To prevent the yoghourt from going sour, add
skimmed milk powder (1 - 2 tablespoons per liter
(approx. 2 pints) to the milk before heating it.

Preparing bulky food
Acrylamide in foodstuffs
Which foods are affected?
▯
You can remove the side slide-in racks to prepare
bulky food.
Acrylamide is mainly produced in grain and potato
products that are heated to high temperatures, such
as potato crisps, chips, toast, bread rolls, bread, fine
baked goods (biscuits, gingerbread, cookies).
▯
To do this, undo the knurled nuts on the front of
the slide-in racks and pull out the racks toward
you (see section entitled Removing slide-in racks).
▯
Place the rack directly on the bottom of the oven
interior and then place the food or the roaster on
the rack. Do not place the food or the roaster
directly on the bottom of the oven interior.
Tips for keeping acrylamide to a mini-
mum when preparing food
General
Keep cooking times to a minimum. Cook
meals until they are golden brown, but
not too dark. Large, thick pieces of food
contain less acrylamide.
Baking
With convection max. 355° F (180°C).
Cookies
Egg or egg yolk reduces the production
of acrylamide. Spread out a single layer
evenly on the baking tray.
Oven fries
Cook at least 400 g at once on a baking
tray so that the fries do not dry out.
