Before cooking with the steam combi oven for the first time, it
must be set to the correct boiling point for water in your area.
This is determined by the altitude at which you live. This
procedure also flushes out the water pipework.
This procedure must be carried out to ensure efficient
functioning of your appliance.
^ Run the appliance using steam cooking 2 (100 °C) for
15 minutes. Proceed as described in "Operating
principles".
If you move house, the appliance will need to be reset for the
new altitude if this differs from the old one by 300 m or more.
To do this, descale the appliance (see "Cleaning and care /
Descaling").
To remove the grease from the ring heating element, heat the
appliance up with nothing in it at 200 °C using the Fan Plus
programme for 30 minutes. Proceed as described in
"Operation".
There will be a slight smell the first time the heating element is
heated up.
The smell and any vapours will dissipate after a short time,
and do not indicate a faulty connection or appliance. It is
important to ensure that the room is well ventilated during this
operation.
