Steam cooking mode
Water container
The maximum water level is 1.5 litres,
the minimum 0.5 litres. These levels are
indicated on the container. Do not ex-
ceed the maximum level.
The amount of water used will depend
on the type of food and the duration of
cooking. Water will sometimes need to
be replenished during the cooking pro-
gramme. Water consumption is in-
creased if the door is opened during
cooking.
At the end of the cooking programme
hot residual water in the steam gener-
ator is pumped back into the water con-
tainer. The water container must be
emptied after each use.
The water container is removed using a
push/pull system: push gently on the
water container to remove it.
Temperature
Some functions have a default recom-
mended temperature. This temperature
can be altered within the given range for
the programme or programme stage in
use, or for every time that programme is
used (see "Settings - Recommended
temperatures"). Temperatures can be
changed in 5 °C steps, or in 1 °C steps
for Sous-vide cooking.

You will hear a pumping sound when
the appliance is switched on, during

hear a fan noise.

ing compartment as it rises and

When cooking with steam, the duration
of the heating-up phase will depend on

food. In general the heating-up phase
will last for approx. 5 minutes. The dur-
ation will be longer if you are cooking
refrigerated or frozen food.
