In this position only the steam generator heating elements
are activated, which means just steam operation (100°C).
STEAM 1 (Fig.1 No.13)
In this position the heating of the cooking chamber is
activated as well as the steam generator heating elements
in the proportion of 75% hot air and 25% steam.
STEAM 2 - REGENERATION (Fig.1 No.14)
In this position the heating of the cooking chamber is
activated as well as the steam generator heating elements
in the proportion of 50% hot air and 50% steam.
Low temperature steam, vacuum-cooking
(Fig.1 No.31)
In this position only the steam generator heating elements
are activated, which means just steam operation
(temperature range between 30°C and 99 °C).
COOKING CHAMBER TEMPERATURE
(Fig.1 No.17)
Setting of the required temperature inside the cooking
chamber. The temperature may be set anywhere between
50° and 300° C. The markings on the knob allow the
approximate regulation of the temperature value, while
the luminous digital indication (display) above the knob
allows a precise regulation. During the process of
programming the temperature value is blinking. If no furt-
her change is made, after 3 seconds the display will
indicate the temperature value actually measured by the
temperature sensor inside the cooking chamber, thus
enabling a constant control of the actual temperature inside
the cooking chamber.
In the "HOT AIR" cooking mode, the programmable
maximum temperature is 300° C. In this case the
temperature range between 250° and 300°C is limited to
10 minutes. In the ”STEAM” cooking mode, the
temperature is automatically limited to 100 °C. In the
”STEAM 1" and ”STEAM 2” cooking modes, the
programmable maximum temperature is 250° C. In the
”LOW-TEMPERATURE STEAM" cooking mode, the
programmable temperature goes from 30° to 99° C.
ACTUAL COOKING TIME (Fig.1 No.18)
Programming the desired cooking time. The time scale is
divided into three different graduations :
Range from 1 - 20 min.: This enlarged range in 1-minute
stages is provided for short term cooking.
Range from 20 - 120 min.: This range in 4-minute stages
is provided for long term cooking.
Range ¥: This sign of infinity indicates continuous
operation. In this position the appliance is preheated or is
working in the “stand-by” operation.
By turning the knob, the timer is activated and the cooking
process starts, if the desired cooking programme and
temperature has been preset. During the course of cooking
process the green indicator light above the knob lights
up. As soon as the cooking time is over, the indicator light
goes out and an audible signal is activated.
Three circular indicator lights, placed in the lower part of
the control panel, are indicating the following control
functions.
WARNING OF SCALE BUILD-UP IN THE
STEAM GENERATOR (Fig.1 No.28)
When the indicator light relating to the symbol comes on,
this means that there is a build-up of scale in the steam
generator and on the heating elements. Descaling should
be carried out as quickly as possible. Detailed instructions
for the chemical descaling of the entire system are given
in the chapter ”Cleaning and care”.
DOOR SAFETY (Fig.1 No.29)
If the indicator light relating to this symbol comes on, the
door is not closed properly and consequently the ”STEAM”
and ”STEAM 1” cooking modes cannot be activated.
STEAM GENERATOR LEVEL GAUGE
(Fig.1 No.30)
The indicator light relating to the steam generator symbol
blinks whenever the water in the steam generator does
not cover the safety level mark.
If the indicator light up continously, this means that the
steam generator is still being filled with water, the heating
elements, however, can be activated. The steam generator
is ready for use.
When the indicator light goes out, this means that the
water level inside the steam generator is correct and there
is no need to top up.
