Hot accessories

Risk of burning.

Always use an oven cloth or oven gloves to remove hot accessories from the appliance.

Hot water	Risk of scalding.Do not clean the appliance immediately after switching it off. The water in the evaporator dish is still hot. Wait until the appliance has cooled down.
Incorrect repairs	Danger of electric shock.Incorrect repairs are dangerous. Repairs may only be carried out by one of our trained after-sales engineers.If the appliance is faulty, switch off the circuit breaker in the fuse box or disconnect the appliance at the mains. Contact the after-sales service.

Causes of damage

Keep the cooking compartment floor clear	Do not place anything on the cooking compartment floor. Do not cover it with aluminium foil. A build-up of heat could damage the appliance.The cooking compartment floor and the evaporator dish must always be kept clear. Always place ovenware on the wire rack or in the perforated cooking container.
Aluminium foil	Aluminium foil in the cooking compartment must not come into contact with the door panel. This could cause permanent discolouration of the door panel.
Ovenware	Ovenware must be heat and steam resistant. Silicone baking tins are not suitable for combined operation with hot air and steam.Do not use ovenware that shows signs of rust. Even the smallest spots of rust can lead to corrosion in the cooking compartment.
Steaming with a perforated cooking container	When steaming in a perforated cooking container, always insert the baking tray underneath. Dripping liquid is caught.
Moist food	Do not store moist food in the closed cooking compartment for prolonged periods. It can lead to corrosion in the cooking compartment.
Fruit juice	When baking very moist fruit flan, do not pack the baking tray too generously. If fruit juice drips from the baking tray, it leaves stains that cannot be removed.
Very dirty door seal	If the door seal is very dirty, the appliance door will no longer close properly. The fronts of adjacent units could be damaged. Always keep the door seal clean and replace when necessary.
Appliance door as a set down area	Do not place anything on the appliance door when it is open. The appliance could be damaged.

Energy and environment tips

Here will be given tips on saving energy and disposing of your appliance properly.

Saving energy

Only preheat the appliance if this is specified in the recipe or in the operating instructions table.

Open the appliance door as infrequently as possible while the food is cooking.

Baking

Use dark, black lacquered or enamelled baking tins. They absorb the heat particularly well.

It is best to bake several cakes one after the other. The combination steam oven will still be hot. This reduces the baking time for the second cake. You can also place two loaf tins next to each other.

When cooking times are relatively long, you can switch off the steam oven 10 minutes before the cooking time has finished and use the oven's residual heat to complete the cooking.

Steam

When steaming, you can cook on several levels at the same time. When preparing foods with different cooking times, those with the longest cooking time should be placed in the oven first.

Environmentally-friendly disposal

Dispose of packaging in an environmentally-friendly manner.

This appliance is labelled in accordance with European Directive 2002/96/EU on Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment - WEEE.

The directive gives a framework for the collection and recycling of old appliances, which is valid across the EU.

Water tank

When you open the appliance door, you will see the water tank on the right-hand side.

Only fill the water tank with fresh tap water or with still bottled water.

If your water is very hard, we recommend that you use softened water.

If your tap water contains a high percentage of chlorides (> 40 mg/l), use still mineral water low in chlorides. You can obtain information on your tap water from your water supply company.

Before using for the first time, moisten the tank cover seal with a little water.

Caution.

Do not fill the water tank with distilled water or any other liquids. You may damage the appliance.

Defrosting

If possible, freeze the food flat and in portions at -18 °C. Do not freeze excessively large quantities. Once defrosted, food will not keep for as long and spoils more quickly than fresh food.

Leave the food to defrost in the freezer bag, on a plate or in the perforated cooking container. Always insert the baking tray underneath. The food is then not left lying in the defrost water and the cooking compartment remains clean.

All defrost programmes apply to raw food.

If necessary, the food can occasionally be split apart or pieces which have already defrosted can be removed from the appliance.

After defrosting, allow the food to stand for a further 5 – 15 minutes to come up to room temperature.

Health risk.

When defrosting food from animal sources, you must remove the liquid that escapes during defrosting. It must never come into contact with other food. Bacteria could be transferred.

After defrosting, operate the combination steam oven with hot air for 15 minutes at 180^ C.

Defrosting fish fillet

Never place the fish fillets on top of each other.

Defrosting whole poultry

Remove the packaging before defrosting.

Leave the poultry to stand after defrosting. With large poultry (e.g. small turkeys), you can remove the giblets after approximately 30 minutes standing time.

Defrosting meat

With this programme you can defrost individual pieces.

Thawing fruit a little

If you only want to thaw the fruit a little, change the cooking result individually.

Special

Sterilising bottles

Always clean the bottles immediately after drinking with a bottle brush. Then clean them in the dishwasher.

Place the bottles in the perforated cooking container so that they do not touch one another.

Dry the bottles with a clean cloth after sterilising. The process corresponds to normal sterilisation by boiling.

Preserving

The programme is suitable for fruits with stones and pips and for vegetables (except beans).

Blanch pumpkin before preserving.

The programme is designed for 1-litre glass jars.

For larger or smaller jars, you must adjust the cooking result individually.

Tables and tips

	The tables contain a selection of dishes which are particularly suitable for your combination steam oven. You can find out which operating mode, accessories and cooking time to select. Unless otherwise stated, the information given applies to inserting accessories when the appliance is cold.
Accessories	Use the accessories provided.When steaming in the perforated cooking container, always insert the baking tray underneath. Dripping liquid is caught.
Ovenware	When using ovenware, always place it in the middle of the wire rack.Ovenware must be heat and steam resistant. Cooking times are increased when thick-walled ovenware is used.Food which would normally be prepared in a bain-marie should always be covered with foil (e.g. melting chocolate).
Steam cooking	Steaming is a particularly gentle way of cooking food. The steam surrounds the dish thereby preventing a loss of nutrients from the food. Cooking takes place without overpressure. As a result, the shape, colour and typical aroma of the dishes are retained.
Cooking times and quantities	The cooking times for the steam cooking setting depend on the unit sizes and are independent of the overall quantity. The appliance can steam food to a maximum of 2 kg.Follow the unit sizes given in the tables. The cooking time is reduced for smaller pieces and increased for larger ones. Cooking time is also influenced by the quality and ripeness of the food. The values quoted can therefore only serve as a guideline.

Distribute food evenly

Always distribute the food evenly in the ovenware. It will not cook evenly if the layers are of different depths.

Pressure-sensitive food

When layering delicate foods in the cooking container, do not pile them too high. It is better to use two containers.

Cooking a menu

With steam, you can cook a whole menu at once, without the different flavours mixing. Place the food with the longest cooking time in the appliance first and delay the rest until the appropriate time. This means that all the food will be ready at the same time.

The overall cooking time is extended with menu cooking, as a little steam escapes each time the appliance door is opened and has to be reheated.

Hot air

The Hot air heating type is ideal for sweet and savoury baking, pot roasts and various cakes.

CircoSteam®

The CircoSteam® operating mode uses a combination of hot air and steam, and is particularly suitable for the preparation of roast dishes, chicken and baked items such as yeast-risen pastry and bread.

Roasts and chicken are nice and crisp on the outside and juicy inside. What is more, meat loses less of its weight.

Baked items, such as yeast-risen pastry and bread, take on a particularly attractive surface shine and they do not dry out.

Vegetables

Place the vegetables in the perforated cooking container and insert at level 3. Insert the baking tray underneath at level 1. Dripping liquid is caught.

Meat, poultry, fish

Insert the wire rack and baking tray together at the same level.

When the roast is cooked, switch off the combination steam oven and allow the roast to stand in the oven for a further 10 minutes with the door closed. This will keep the meat juicy.

Using the CircoSteam® operating mode, the meat remains particularly tender on the inside while crispy on the outside.

Roasting tips

Using the roasting set.	Using the roasting set will give you optimum results and the cooking compartment will stay as clean as possible.You can obtain the roasting set as an accessory in specialist retailers(see section: Cooking compartment and accessories).
When is the roast ready?	Use a meat thermometer (available from specialist shops) or carry out a “spoon test”: press down on the roast with a spoon. If it feels firm, it is ready. If the spoon can be pressed in, it needs to be cooked for a little longer.
The roast is too dark and the outside is partly burnt.	Check the shelf position and temperature.
The roast looks good but the juices are burnt.	Next time, chose a smaller roasting dish or add more liquid.
The roast looks good, but the juices are too clear and watery.	Next time, chose a larger roasting dish or add less liquid.

Braising meat

Braising is the ideal cooking method for all tender pieces of meat which are to be cooked medium rare or medium. The meat remains very juicy and turns out as soft as butter.

Slide the baking tray into the comination steam oven and preheat with the Slow cook operating mode.

Sear the meat on the hob on all sides.

Place in the preheated steam oven and continue to cook gently.

When cooked, arrange on preheated plates and serve with a hot sauce.

Cakes and pastries

It is best to use dark-coloured metal baking tins.

The temperature and cooking time depend on the quantity and composition of the dough mixture.

For this reason, temperature ranges are quoted in the tables.

First set the lower temperature. This will brown the dish more evenly. A higher temperature can be selected next time, if required.

Do not overfill the wire rack or baking tray with food.

You want to bake following your own recipe.	Use similar items in the baking tables as a guide.
to help you establish whether the sponge cake is baked through.	Approx. 10 minutes before the end of the baking time stated in the recipe, use a cocktail stick to prick the cake at its highest point. If there is no mixture stuck to the cocktail stick when it is removed, the cake is ready.
The cake collapses.	Next time, use less liquid or set the baking temperature 10 °C lower. Observe the specified mixing times in the recipe.
The cake has risen in the middle but has sunk around the edge.	Do not grease the edge of the springform cake tin. After baking, loosen the cake carefully with a knife.
Cakes baked in a tray or tin are overbrowned at the back	Place the baking tray in the middle of the accessories, not directly against the rear panel.
The cake is too dry.	Make small holes in the cake when it is done using a toothpick. Then drizzle fruit juice or an alcoholic drink over it. Next time, set the temperature 10 °C higher and shorten the cooking times or use the Combination type of heating.
The bread or the cake has a good appearance but it is soggy inside (overmoist with wet streaks)	Next time, use less liquid. Bake at a lower temperature for a little longer. For cakes with a moist topping, bake the base first. Cover the base with almonds or bread crumbs first and then apply the topping. Observe the baking time in the recipe.
The cake or pastry is unevenly browned.	Next time, set the temperature a little lower.

Defrost

If possible, freeze the food flat and in portions at -18^ . Do not freeze excessively large quantities. Once defrosted, food will not keep for as long and spoils more quickly than fresh food.

Leave the food to defrost in the freezer bag, on a plate or on the perforated cooking container. Always insert the baking tray underneath. The food is then not left lying in the defrost water and the cooking compartment remains clean.

Use the Defrost operating mode.

If necessary, the meal can occasionally be split apart or pieces which have already defrosted can be removed from the appliance.

After defrosting, allow the food to stand for a further 5 - 15 minutes to come up to room temperature.

Health risk.

When defrosting food from animal sources, you must remove the liquid that escapes during defrosting. It must never come into contact with other food. Bacteria could be transferred.

After defrosting, operate the steam oven with hot air for 15 minutes at 180^ C.

Defrost meat

allow pieces of meat which are to be breadcrumbed to defrost to the point where seasoning and breadcrumbs adhere to the meat.

Defrost poultryremove from packaging before defrosting. You must tip the defrost liquid away.

Juicing

Before juicing, place the berries in a bowl and sprinkle with sugar. Leave to stand for at least one hour to draw out the juice.

Pour the berries into the perforated cooking container and insert at level 3. Insert the solid cooking container at level 1 to catch the juice.

Finally, place the berries in a cloth and squeeze out the rest of the juice.

Preserving

Preserve food which is as fresh as possible. When foods are stored for a relatively long period, their vitamin content is reduced and they cook more readily.

Only use fruit and vegetables which are in perfect condition.

Check preserving jars, rubber rings, clips and springs.

Clean rubber rings and jars thoroughly with hot water. The "Sterilise bottles" programme is also suitable for cleaning glasses.

Place the jars in the perforated cooking container. They must not be in contact with each other.

After the specified cooking time, open the cooking compartment door.

Do not remove the preserving jars from the appliance until they have completely cooled down.
