Description of the functions Heating-up phase During the heating-up phase the oven compartment is heated to the set temperature. The display will show the temperature of the cooking compartment as it rises. The duration of the heating-up phase will depend on the quantity and the temperature of the food. In general the heating-up phase will last for approx. 7 minutes. The duration will be longer if you are preparing refrigerated or frozen food.
Before using for the first time Please stick the extra data plate for the appliance supplied with this documentation in the space provided in the "After sales service, data plate, guarantee" section of this booklet. Cleaning for the first time ^ Remove any protective foil. ^ Open the door by pressing on the left hand side of the door release. The door will open slightly. Water container ^ Take the water container out of the appliance and remove the insert (see "Cleaning and care - Water container").
Before using for the first time Setting the water hardness level The steam oven is set at the factory to the hard (S04) water hardness setting. It must be adjusted to local water hardness to ensure problem-free operation and so that descaling can be carried out at the correct interval. The harder the water, the more often the appliance will need to be descaled. ^ Check the hardness of your local water supply and adjust the water hardness as necessary (see "Settings").
Operating principles Preparation ^ Fill the water container with mains tap water up to at least the "min" marker. You do not need to remove the insert. Only use mains tap water. Never use distilled or mineral water or other liquids. ^ Push the water container into the appliance until it connects. If the water container is not positioned correctly, the appliance will not heat up and after a while F20 will appear in the display (see "Problem solving guide"). ^ Place the food in the oven.

Additional functions Pre-heating Your appliance has a pre-heating function. This heats the oven interior to approx. 40 °C. The heating-up time is then shorter as the oven interior is pre-heated and therefore the cooking process takes less time. The appliance is delivered with the pre-heating function deactivated. If you wish to use it you will need to alter the setting (see "Settings"). When the pre-heating function has been activated you can still choose whether you want to use it for each programme.
General notes This section contains general information about steam cooking. You will find more detailed information about particular foods and how to cook them in the other sections. The advantages of cooking with steam Almost all vitamins and minerals are retained as the food is not immersed in water. Cooking with steam also retains the true taste of the food better than conventional cooking. We therefore recommend seasoning the food after it has been cooked. Food retains its fresh, orginal colour.
General notes – Place the cooking container in a sufficiently large perforated container, not on the oven floor. – Ensure that there is a gap of at least 3 cm between the upper rim of the container and the top of the cooking compartment to allow sufficient steam into the container. Condensate tray When using a perforated cooking container, push the condensate tray onto the lowest shelf runner to catch any drips. You can also use the condensate tray as a cooking container if necessary.
General notes Cooking duration (time) In general, the cooking durations for cooking with steam are the same as for cooking food in a saucepan. More information about any factors which may affect the cooking duration is given in the relevant sections. The quantity of food does not affect the cooking duration. 1 kg of potatoes will take the same time to cook as 500 g. The durations given in the charts are guidelines only. We recommend selecting the shorter cooking duration quoted.
Steam cooking Vegetables Fresh Prepare fresh vegetables in the usual way, i.e. wash, clean and cut them up. Frozen Frozen vegetables do not need to be defrosted beforehand, Exception: vegetables frozen in a block. Frozen and fresh vegetables which take the same length of time to cook can be cooked together. If vegetables have frozen together in clumps, break these up before cooking with steam. Follow the manufacturer's instructions on the packaging regarding cooking duration.
Steam cooking Cooking duration As with conventional methods, when cooking vegetables with steam the cooking duration will depend on the size and also whether you want the vegetables to be al dente or soft/well done. Example: waxy potatoes, cut into quarters = approx. 18 minutes waxy potatoes, cut in half = approx. 22 minutes Brussels sprouts, large, al dente = approx. 12 minutes Brussels sprouts, small, soft = approx.
Steam cooking Duration in minutes Corn on the cob Courgettes, sliced 30–35 2–3 Curly kale, chopped 23–26 Fairly firm potatoes, peeled whole halved quartered 25–27 19–21 17–18 Fennel, cut into strips 4–5 Fennel, halved 10–12 Firm potatoes, peeled whole halved quartered 27–29 21–22 16–18 Floury potatoes, peeled whole halved quartered 26–28 19–20 15–16 Green asparagus 7 Kohlrabi, cut into batons 6–7 Leeks, halved lengthwise 6 Leeks, sliced Main crop carrots, chopped New potatoes, firm 4–5

Steam cooking Meat Fresh Prepare the meat in the usual way. Frozen Meat should be thoroughly defrosted before cooking in the steam oven (see "Defrosting"). Preparation For meat which needs to be seared before being cooked, sear the meat in a pan on the hob first. Cooking duration The cooking duration depends on the thickness and the texture of the meat, and not on the weight. The thicker the piece of meat, the longer the cooking duration.
Steam cooking Settings Temperature: 100 °C Duration: See chart The durations given in the charts are guidelines only. We recommend selecting the shorter cooking duration quoted. If food is not cooked sufficiently after the shorter time it can be put back in the oven and cooked for longer.
Steam cooking Sausages Settings Temperature: 90 °C Duration: See chart Sausages Duration in minutes Frankfurters 6–8 Bologna sausages 6–8 Veal sausages 6–8 35
Steam cooking Fish Fresh Prepare fresh fish in the usual way, i.e. clean, gut and fillet. Frozen Defrost frozen fish before cooking (see "Defrosting"). Preparation Add some lemon or lime juice to fish before cooking. The citric acid makes the flesh stay firm. It is not necessary to season fish with salt when cooking with steam as this method retains the minerals which give the fish its unique flavour. Cooking containers If using a perforated container to cook fish, grease it beforehand.
Steam cooking Cooking duration The cooking duration depends on the thickness and the texture of the fish, and not on the weight. The thicker the fish, the longer the cooking duration. A 3 cm thick piece of fish weighing 500 g will take longer to cook than a 2 cm thick piece of fish weighing 500 g. The longer fish cooks, the firmer its flesh will become. Use the cooking durations given in the chart. If you find that the fish is not cooked sufficiently only cook it for a few minutes more.
Steam cooking Settings Temperature: See chart Duration: See chart The cooking durations given in the chart are guidelines for fresh fish. We recommend selecting the shorter cooking duration quoted. If food is not cooked sufficiently after the shorter time it can be put back in the oven and cooked for longer. 38 Temperature in °C Duration in minutes Atlantic cod fillet 100 6 Carp, 1.
Steam cooking Shellfish Preparation Defrost frozen shellfish before cooking with steam. Peel, remove and discard the intestines, and then wash the shellfish. Cooking containers If using a perforated container grease it beforehand. Cooking duration The longer shellfish are cooked, the harder they become. Use the cooking durations given in the chart. When cooking shellfish in sauce or stock, we recommend that you increase the cooking duration quoted by a few minutes.
Steam cooking Mussels Fresh ,Only cook mussels which are closed. N.B. Do not eat mussels which have not opened after being cooked. Danger of food poisoning. Steep fresh mussels in water for a few hours before cooking to rinse out any sand. Then brush the mussels vigorously to remove the attached fibres. Frozen Defrost frozen mussels before cooking. Cooking duration The longer mussels are cooked, the harder they become. Use the cooking durations given in the chart.
Steam cooking Rice Rice swells when cooked and needs to be cooked in liquid. The proprotion of rice to liquid depends on the type of rice. The rice absorbs all the liquid and so none of the nutrients are lost. Settings Temperature: 100 °C Duration: See chart Ratio Rice : Liquid Duration in minutes Basmati rice 1 : 1,5 15 Brown rice 1 : 1.5 26–29 Parboiled rice 1 : 1.5 23–25 Round grain rice Pudding rice Risotto 1 : 2,5 1 : 2.5 30 18–19 Wild rice 1 : 1.
Steam cooking Pasta Dry pasta Dry pasta swells when it is cooked and needs to be cooked in liquid. The liquid must cover the pasta. Using hot liquid gives better results. Increase the cooking time stated by the manufacturer by 1/3. Fresh Fresh pasta, such as you can buy from the supermarket chilled counter, does not need to absorb water. Cook fresh pasta in a perforated container. Separate any pieces of pasta which have stuck together and spread them out in the cooking container.
Steam cooking Dumplings Ready made boil-in-the-bag dumplings need to be well covered with water as otherwise they can fall apart. This is because even although they have been soaked in water beforehand they will not absorb enough moisture. Cook fresh dumplings in a greased, perforated container.
Steam cooking Grain Grain swells during cooking and needs to be cooked in liquid. The proportion of grain to liquid depends on the type of grain. Grain can be cooked whole or cracked. Settings Temperature: 100 °C Duration: See chart Ratio Grain : Liquid Duration in minutes Amaranth 1 : 1.5 15–17 Bulgar 1 : 1.5 9 Green spelt, cracked 1:1 7 Green spelt, whole 1:1 18–20 1 : 1.5 10 Oats, cracked 1:1 7 Oats, whole 1:1 18 Polenta 1:3 10 Quinoa 1 : 1.
Steam cooking Dried pulses Soak pulses for at least 10 hours in cold water before cooking. Soaking makes pulses more digestible and shortens the cooking duration required. Exception: Lentils do not need to be soaked before cooking. Soaked pulses must be covered with liquid during cooking. With unsoaked pulses a specific ratio of pulses : water is required.
Steam cooking Unsoaked Duration in minutes Ratio Pulses: Liquid Adzuki beans 95–105 1:3 Black beans 100–120 1:3 Haricot beans 80–90 1:3 Kidney beans 130–140 1:3 Pinto beans 115–135 1:3 13–14 1:2 7 1:2 60–70 1:3 Beans Lentils Brown lentils Red lentils Peas Green split peas Yellow split peas 46 110–130 1:3
Steam cooking Hen's eggs Use a perforated container to cook boiled eggs in the steam oven. The eggs do not need to be pierced before cooking as they are gradually warmed during the heating up phase and so do not burst when they are cooked with steam. Use a solid container for preparing egg dishes, such as scrambled eggs.
Steam cooking Fruit Cook fruit in a solid container so that none of the juice is lost. If you wish to cook fruit in a perforated container, place a solid container directly underneath it to collect the juice. Tip You can use the juice which has collected in the solid container to make a glaze for a fruit flan.
Steam cooking Menu cooking (cooking whole meals) You can use the steam oven to cook a whole meal containing types of food which have different cooking durations, e.g. fish fillet with rice and broccoli. The food which has the longest cooking duration is placed in the steam oven first and then each subsequent dish is placed in the oven at the appropriate time so that the whole meal is ready at the same time. Shelf level When cooking fish or food with a distinctive colour (e.g.
Steam cooking Example Rice Fish fillet Broccoli 20 minutes 6 minutes 4 minutes 20 minutes less 6 minutes = 14 minutes (1st duration: rice) 6 minutes less 4 minutes = 2 minutes (2nd duration: fish fillet) Remaining time = 4 minutes (3rd duration: broccoli) Duration 20 min - rice 6 min - fish fillet 4 min broccoli Setting 14 min 2 min ^ Place the rice in the oven first. ^ Set the first cooking duration: 14 minutes. ^ After 14 minutes, place the fish in the oven.
Special applications Reheating The steam oven is very effective at reheating food gently, without drying it out or cooking it further. The food will reheat evenly and does not need to be stirred during the reheating process. You can reheat individual dishes or plated meals which have been prepared previously (e.g. meat, vegetables and potatoes). Suitable containers Small quantities can be reheated on a plate, larger quantities should be placed in a cooking container.
Special applications Procedure ^ Cover the food with a deep plate, a lid, or with foil that is resistant to temperatures up to 100°C and to steam. ^ Place the plate or dish in a sufficiently large perforated container. Settings Temperature: 100 °C Duration: See chart Duration in minutes 52 Casserole 8–10 Fish fillet 6–8 Meat 8–10 Plated meals 8–10 Poultry 8–10 Side dishes (pasta, rice, etc.
Special applications Defrosting It is much quicker to defrost items in the steam oven than at room temperature. Temperature 60 °C is the best temperature for defrosting. Exception: 50 °C for minced meat and game. Before and after defrosting Remove all packaging before defrosting. Exceptions: Leave bread, biscuits and cakes in their packaging as otherwise they will absorb moisture and become soft. Allow defrosted food to stand at room temperature after removing it from the oven.
Special applications Tips Fish does not need to be fully defrosted before cooking. Defrost so that the surface is sufficiently thawed to take herbs and seasoning. Depending on the thickness of the fish, 2 - -5 minutes should be enough. When defrosting food which has frozen together, e.g. berries, chops, fish fillets etc. separate it about half-way through the defrosting time. Do not refreeze food once it has thawed. Defrost frozen pre-cooked meals according to the manufacturer's instructions.

If using 0.5 litre jars reduce the duration by about 15 minutes. If using 0.25 litre jars reduce the duration by about 20 minutes.
Special applications Extracting juice with steam You can use the steam oven to extract juices from fruit, such as soft berries and cherries. It is best to use overripe fruit, as the riper the fruit the greater the quantity of juice produced. Very ripe fruit will also produce a more intense flavour. Preparation Sort and clean the fruit. Cut out any blemishes. Remove the stalks from grapes and morello cherries as these are bitter. The stalks do not need to be removed from strawberries, raspberries etc.
Special applications Making yoghurt To make yoghurt, you will need either fresh live yoghurt or yoghurt culture, obtainable from health food shops. Use natural yoghurt with live culture and without additives. Heat-treated yoghurt is not suitable. The yoghurt must be fresh (short storage time) You can use either unchilled long-life milk or fresh milk. Long-life milk can be used without any further treatment. Fresh milk must first be heated to 90 °C and then cooled down to 35 °C. Do not boil it.
Special applications Tip When using yoghurt enzyme, yoghurt can be made from a milk / cream mixture. Mix 3/4 litre milk with 1/4 litre cream. Procedure ^ Mix 100 g yoghurt with 1 litre of milk or make up the mixture with yoghurt enzyme, following the instructions on the packaging. ^ Pour the mixture into glass jars and seal the jars. ^ Place the sealed jars in a cooking container.
