Operating the steam oven
Food can be cooked very gently using steam.
You can also use steam assistance with some conven-
tional heating modes.
WARNING
Hot steam may escape when the appliance door is
opened. Steam is not visible at certain temperatures!
▶
Open the appliance door carefully during or after cook-
ing.
▶
Do not stand too near or lean over the appliance when
opening the appliance door .
Note:There is a humming noise while the pump is in op-
eration and after switching it off. This noise is caused by
the pump function test. It is a normal operating noise. You
will also hear this noise after running non-steam modes
when the oven is turned off. This is normal.

sufficiently filled before operation.
