IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS

Steam in Automatic and Manual Cooking

Before cooking

1.Make sure the water tank is filled with room temperature drinking water and is installed correctly. (See page 7.)

2.Make sure the empty drip tray is installed. (See page 7.)

3.Place food in the oven. Make sure to place the glass tray in lower position (position 2) for cooking with steam mode.

After Cooking

1.After the oven has cooled, remove and empty the water tank, wipe oven cavity. Be aware that the grill heating element and steam outlets may be still hot, so take care when wiping the ceiling and cavity back plate. (The grill heating element will turn on for a very short time before the end of the cooking.) Wait a few minutes, then empty the drip tray.

2.Perform the Drain Water function at least once a day after empty the water tank and wipe the oven cavity.

3.Check that water is not dripping down before removing the drip tray, as a small amount of water drains into the drip tray when the water tank is removed.

4.During and after cooking, condensed water may be on the door, oven walls and oven floor. Dry any liquid residue with a soft cloth. After the last use of the day, we recommend to operate the oven with Grill for 3 minutes without food and accessories for drying the water off around grill heating element.

WARNING: Do not open the oven with your face close to the oven. Steam from the oven may cause burns.

NOTE: Keep the door closed. If opened during cooking, steam will escape and a longer cooking time will be required.

The heating category (a letter A to E) developed by MAFF (Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food) with microwave oven and food manufacturers indicates the ability of the oven to heat small quantities of food (up to 500g [1lb 2oz]). It does not represent the general performance of the oven.

Food packs carry cooking instructions for heating categories A to E. Follow instructions for the letter corresponding to the oven’s heating category. The higher the output power and heating category of the oven the less heating time is required as shown opposite.
