Thermador PRD48JDSGU Use And Care Manual page 54

Before each use of the steam oven:
1. Fill the water tank with cold water up to the MAX mark.
2. Close the tank lid until it clearly snaps into place.
3. Slide the tank all the way to the back of the slot.
After each use of the steam oven:
Empty the water tank after each use.
1. Keep the water tank level while slowly pulling it out of
the slot to ensure that no remaining water drips down
and out through the vent.
2. Pour out the water.
3. Thoroughly dry the seal of the tank lid and the slot
where the tank resides. Prolonged dampness could
lead to a musty odor in the tank.
Water level sensor warnings:
The water tank must have enough water to generate the steam needed for the cooking mode and time you are using. As
the water is converted to steam, the tank level will drop during cooking. Three different water levels are monitored by the
oven:
Display Screen Warning When

Automatic calibration of the steam oven to air pressure
at your location:
The temperature at which water boils depends on the air
pressure, which is lower at higher elevations. The steam
oven automatically calibrates to adjust to the pressure
conditions in your area the first time steam is used at
° °
212 F (100 C). More steam than usual will be produced
during calibration.

after which the Cook Timer resumes
counting down.
