Warning and Safety instructions If the combination steam oven is built in behind a furniture front (e.g. a door), do not close the furniture door while the oven is in use. Heat and moisture can build up behind the furniture front when closed. This can result in damage to the combination steam oven, the housing unit and the floor. Leave the furniture door open until the combination steam oven has cooled down completely.
Warning and Safety instructions Plastic dishes that are not suitable for use in an oven will melt and may ignite at high temperatures, and can damage the combination steam oven. Use only plastic containers that are suitable for use in an oven. Follow the instructions from the crockery manufacturer. If you wish to use plastic containers for steam cooking, make sure that these are heat-resistant to 100 °C and able to withstand hot steam. Other plastic containers can melt or become fragile and brittle.
Warning and Safety instructions Some types of food dry out quickly and can self-ignite if high grill temperatures are used. Never use the grill to finish baking part-cooked rolls or bread or to dry flowers or herbs. Use Fan plus or Conventional heat for this type of procedure. To avoid fuelling any flames, do not open the combination steam oven door if there is smoke inside the oven compartment.
Warning and Safety instructions Cleaning and care Risk of injury due to electric shock. The steam from a steam cleaning appliance could reach live electrical components and cause a short circuit. Do not use a steam cleaner to clean the appliance. Scratches on the door glass can result in the glass breaking. Do not use abrasive cleaners, hard sponges, brushes or sharp metal tools to clean the door glass. The side runners can be removed (see “Cleaning and care – Cleaning the side runners”).

General notes This section contains general information. You will find more detailed information about particular foods and how to cook them in the other sections. The advantages of cooking with steam Almost all vitamins and minerals are retained as the food is not immersed in water. Cooking with steam also retains the true taste of the food better than conventional cooking. We therefore recommend seasoning the food after it has been cooked. Food also retains its fresh, original colour.
General notes Shelf level Cooking duration You can select any shelf level. You can also cook on several levels at the same time. This will not alter the cooking duration. During steam cooking, the cooking duration does not begin until the set temperature is reached. When using more than one deep container at the same time for steam cooking it is best to offset them on their runners and to leave at least one level free in between them.
General notes Universal tray and combi rack Use the universal tray with the combi rack placed on top of it, e.g. for roasting and grilling. During roasting, you can use the meat juices collected in the tray to make a gravy or sauce. If you are using the universal tray with the combi rack on top, insert the universal tray between the rails of a shelf level and the combi rack will automatically slide in above them. When removing them from the oven, pull both out together.
Steam cooking Eco Steam cooking Notes on the cooking tables You can use the Eco Steam cooking function to save energy during steam cooking. This function is suitable mainly for cooking fish and vegetables. Follow the instructions on cooking durations, temperatures and cooking notes. We recommend following the cooking durations and temperatures from the tables specified in “Steam cooking”. You can cook for longer if necessary.

Sous-vide (vacuum) cooking With this gentle cooking method, food is cooked slowly and at a low, constant temperature in vacuum packaging. With vacuum cooking, no moisture evaporates during cooking and all nutrients and flavours are retained. The cooking result has an intensive taste and food is cooked evenly. Use only fresh food which is in a good condition. Ensure hygienic conditions and that food has not been out of the refrigerator too long, e.g. during transportation.
Sous-vide (vacuum) cooking Important usage notes For best cooking results, follow the instructions below: - Use herbs and spices more sparingly than with conventional cooking methods because the impact on the taste of the food will be stronger. You can also cook the food unseasoned and add seasoning after cooking. - The cooking duration is reduced when salt, sugar and liquids are added. - The food becomes firmer if acidic ingredients such as lemon or vinegar are added.
Sous-vide (vacuum) cooking Tips Using the Sous-vide function - In order to reduce cooking times, you can vacuum-seal food items 1–2 days before the cooking programme. Store the vacuum-sealed food in the refrigerator at no more than 5 °C. In order to preserve quality and flavour, the food should be cooked no later than 2 days afterwards. Rinse the food with cold water and dry it. - Freeze liquids such as marinades before vacuum-sealing to prevent them from escaping from the bag.
Sous-vide (vacuum) cooking Possible reasons for unsatisfactory results The bag has opened: - The seal was not clean or strong enough and has opened. - The bag was damaged by a sharp bone. The food has an unpleasant or strange taste: - Incorrect storage of the food; the food was kept out of the refrigerator for too long. - The food was contaminated with bacteria before it was vacuum sealed. - Too much of ingredients such as spices was added. - The bag or seal was not in perfect order.
