Before Using the Oven for the First Time

Set the Water Hardness Level
1. Determine the hardness of your tap water by using test
strips (not provided) or by asking your water utility
company.
2. With the oven OFF, push any button to bring up two
choices on the display screen, KITCHEN TIMER and
SETTINGS.
3. Using the "+/–" buttons, select SETTINGS and press
"ENTER".
4. Scroll through SETTINGS until the arrow (>) points to
WATER HARDNESS. Press "ENTER".
5. Using the "+/–" buttons, scroll the number scale, and
press "ENTER" when the arrow points to the hardness
level for your water. The factory setting is 3.
1 = Softened
2 = Soft
3 = Average
4 = Hard
5 = Very Hard
Unless you use softened water, you will need to descale
your steam oven at regular intervals (see "Descale" in the
"Care and Maintenance" section on page 77).
If you move or if your water source changes, you will need
to reset the water hardness value.
Review Other Oven Settings
With the steam oven OFF, you can access various other
oven features. Go to the SETTINGS on the initial options
on the display screen and press "ENTER". The full list of
settings will display:
• Country Code
• Temperature Units
• Weight Units
• Calibration
• Water Hardness
• Descale
• Steam Clean
• Factory Reset
Many of these features should be adjusted during
installation or after a move to a new location.
For more information on these initial settings, see "Steam
Oven Settings", page 52. Descale and steam clean are part
of your routine care of the steam oven. They are described
in detail in the "Care and Maintenance" section of this
manual, starting on page 77
Clean the Accessories
Wash the accessories thoroughly with soapy water and a
cloth before using them.
Clean the Oven Using the STEAM Mode
Before using the steam oven for the first time, heat it once
while it is empty:
1. Fill and slide in the water tank (see instructions under
"Water Tank", page 48).
2. Turn the Mode Selector Ring to STEAM. The display
screen will show SELECT TEMPERATURE on first line
°
and 210°F (100 C) on the second.
3. Press ENTER. The display will show "Set Cook Timer"
on the first line and 0:00 on the second.
4. Using the "+/–" buttons, set the cooking time for 20
minutes (0:20, in HR/MIN format). The oven will heat
for 20 minutes and then stop.
5. Leave the door cracked open until the oven cools.
This initial cleaning will also calibrate the steam oven to the
air pressure at your location. Calibration produces more
steam than ordinary use.
