Guide to the Steam Oven
Preheating phase
While the oven is heating up to the set temperature, the display will show the rising temperature inside the oven together with "Preheating" (Exceptions: MasterChef programs and Menu Cooking).
The preheating time depends on the quantity and the temperature of the food. It will be longer if you are preparing refrigerated or frozen food.
Cooking phase
The cooking phase begins when the set temperature is reached. During the cooking phase, the remaining time is displayed.
Steam reduction
Just before the end of the cooking time, the door opens slightly to release some of the steam from the oven. The door will then close again automatically.
You can turn the steam reduction function off (see "Settings"). If turned off, the "Keeping warm" function will also be deactivated.
If "Steam reduction" is turned off, a lot of steam will come out of the oven when the door is opened.
Keeping warm
If you wish to use this function you must change the default setting (see "Settings").
If the steam oven is not turned off at the end of a cooking program, the food will be kept warm for a maximum of 15 minutes.
Please note that delicate food, especially fish, can continue cooking while being kept warm.
