: Safety precautions
Read these instructions for use carefully.
Please keep the instructions for use and
installation instructions in a safe place. If the
appliance changes owners, the instructions
should always be included.
Safety notes
This appliance is intended for domestic use only. This
appliance must only be used for food preparation.
Adults and children must not operate the appliance without
supervision,
■ if they are physically or mentally incapable of doing so or
■ if they have insufficient knowledge or experience.
Never let children play with the appliance.
Risk of scalding!
Hot steam may escape when the appliance door is opened.
Open the appliance door carefully during or after cooking.
When opening the door, do not lean over it. Ensure that,
depending on the temperature, steam is not visible.
Risk of burns!
Never touch the interior surfaces of the cooking compartment
or the heating elements when they are hot. Small children must
be kept at a safe distance from the appliance.
Risk of fire!
Never store combustible items in the cooking compartment.
Risk of fire!
When preheating, never place greaseproof paper unsecured on
the accessories. Draughts are created when the appliance door
is opened. Greaseproof paper may ignite when in contact with
very hot surfaces. Always use a plate or a baking tin to hold the
greaseproof paper down. Only cover the required surface with
greaseproof paper. The greaseproof paper must not extend
over the edge of accessories.
Risk of scalding!
Never pour water into the cooking compartment when it is hot.
This will create hot steam.
Risk of short circuit!
Never trap connecting cables of electrical appliances in the hot
appliance door. The cable insulation could melt.
Risk of burning!
Never prepare food containing large quantities of drinks with a
high alcohol content. Alcoholic vapours can catch fire in the
cooking compartment. Only use small quantities of drinks with
a high alcohol content and take care when opening the
appliance door.
Risk of burning!
Never remove hot accessories or ovenware from the cooking
compartment without oven gloves.
Risk of scalding!
Do not clean the appliance immediately after switching it off.
The water in the evaporator dish is still hot. Wait until the
appliance has cooled down.
Risk of electric shock!
Incorrect repairs are dangerous. Repairs may only be carried
out by one of our trained aftersales engineers. If the appliance
is defective, pull out the mains plug or switch off the appliance
at the circuit breaker in the fuse box. Call the aftersales
service.
Causes of damage
Caution!
■ Do not place anything on the cooking compartment floor. Do
not cover it with aluminium foil. A build-up of heat could
damage the appliance.
The cooking compartment floor and the evaporator dish must
always be kept clear. Always place ovenware in a perforated
cooking container or on a wire rack.
■ Aluminium foil in the cooking compartment must not come
into contact with the door panel. This could cause permanent
discolouration of the door panel.
■ Ovenware must be heat and steam resistant. Silicone baking
tins are not suitable for combined operation with steam.
■ Do not use ovenware that shows signs of rust. Even the
smallest spots of rust can lead to corrosion in the cooking
compartment.
■ When steaming with a perforated cooking container, always
insert the baking tray or the solid cooking container
underneath. Dripping liquid is caught.
■ Do not store moist food in the closed cooking compartment
for long periods. It can lead to corrosion in the cooking
compartment.
■ Fruit juice may leave stains in the cooking compartment.
Always remove fruit juice immediately and wipe the cooking
compartment with a moist and dry cloth.
■ If the door seal is very dirty, the appliance door will no longer
close properly during operation. The fronts of adjacent units
could be damaged. Always keep the door seal clean and
replace when necessary.
■ Do not place anything on the open appliance door. The
appliance could be damaged.
■ Do not carry or hold the appliance by the door handle. The
door handle cannot support the weight of the appliance, and
could break.
■ The cooking compartment in your appliance is made of high
grade stainless steel. Improper care can lead to corrosion in
the cooking compartment. Refer to the care and cleaning
instructions in the instruction manual. Remove food residues
from the cooking compartment as soon as the appliance has
cooled.

Operating modes
You can use the operating mode selector to set your appliance
for various different applications.
Cooking compartment
The cooking compartment has four shelf heights. The shelf
positions are counted from the bottom up.
Caution!
■ Do not place anything on the cooking compartment floor. Do
not cover it with aluminium foil. A build-up of heat could
damage the appliance.
The cooking compartment floor and the evaporator dish must
always be kept clear. Always place ovenware in a perforated
cooking container or on a wire rack.
■ Do not slide any accessories between the shelf positions, or
they may tip.
Accessories
Use only the accessories supplied with the product or available
from the after-sales service. They are specially designed for
your appliance.
Your appliance is equipped with the following accessories:
You can obtain further accessories from specialist retailers:
The cooking containers may warp during cooking. This is
caused by the considerable temperature differences on the
accessories. It may occur if only a part of the accessory is
covered or if you place frozen items, such as pizza, on the
accessory.
Automatic calibration
The boiling temperature of water depends on the air pressure.
During calibration, the appliance is adapted to the pressure
conditions in the location where it is installed. This happens
automatically when you first use the appliance (see section:
First use). More steam develops than usual.

Do not fill the food more than 4 cm deep in the accessories.
The automatic programmes require the weight of the food. With
individual pieces, always enter the weight of the largest. The
total weight must be within the specified weight range.
Cooking time
After the programme is started the cooking time is displayed. It
may change during the first 10 minutes, as the heating-up time
depends, among other things, on the temperature of the food
and the water.
Preparing vegetables P1 P8
Do not season vegetables until after cooking.
Preparing rice P9 - P 10
Weigh the rice and add to the water in a ratio of 1:1.5. Enter the
weight excluding liquid. Stir the rice after cooking. The
remaining water is then quickly absorbed.
Cook poultry P 11 P 13
Do not place chicken breasts or chicken portions on top of
each other in the ovenware. The chicken portions can be
marinated beforehand.
Cook sirloin at low temperature P 15
With sirloin, it is recommended that you use a thick piece. Sear
the meat well beforehand.
Slow-cooked leg of lamb P 19
Sear the meat well beforehand.
Steam fish P 21 P 22
When preparing fish, grease the perforated cooking container.
Do not place whole fish or fish fillets on top of each other. Enter
the weight of the heaviest fish and choose pieces as similar in
size as possible.
Bake plaited loaf P 24
Leave the yeast dough to prove in the combination steam oven
for half an hour in Steam cooking mode at 40 °C.
Prepare rice pudding P 25
Weigh the rice and add 2.5 times the amount of milk. Ensure
the amount of rice and milk in the accessory is no deeper than
2.5 cm. Stir after cooking. The remaining milk is quickly
absorbed.
Prepare yoghurt P 26
Heat the milk to 90 °C on the hob. Then leave to cool to 40 °C.
If you are using UHT milk, you do not need to heat it.
Stir in one to two teaspoons of natural yoghurt per 100 ml milk,
or the corresponding amount of yoghurt culture into the milk.
Pour the mixture into clean jars and seal them.
After preparation, leave the glass jars to cool in the refrigerator.
Bake bread P 27 P 28
The programmes are designed for baking loaves of bread
without a tin. The dough should not be too soft. Cut into the
dough several times with a sharp knife to a depth of approx.
1 cm before baking.
Bake bread rolls P 29
The bread rolls should all be the same weight. Enter the weight
of an individual bread roll.
Defrost P 35 P 37
When freezing, lay the food as flat as possible and in portion-
sized pieces at -18 °C. Do not freeze excessively large
quantities. Once defrosted, food will not keep for as long and
spoils more quickly than fresh food.
Leave the food to defrost in the freezer bag, on a plate or on
the perforated cooking container. Always insert the baking tray
underneath. The food is then not left lying in the defrost water
and the cooking compartment remains clean.
All defrost programmes apply to raw food.
If necessary, the food can occasionally be split apart or pieces
which have already defrosted can be removed from the
appliance.
After defrosting, allow the food to stand for a further 5 -
15 minutes to come up to room temperature.
: Health risk!
When defrosting food from animal sources, you must remove
the liquid that escapes during defrosting. It must never come
into contact with other food. Bacteria could be transferred. After
defrosting, operate the combination steam oven for 15 minutes
using Hot air at 180 °C.
Defrosting fish fillets (P 35): Never place the fish fillets on top of
each other.
Defrosting whole poultry (P 36): Remove the packaging before
defrosting. Leave the poultry to stand after defrosting. With
large poultry (e.g. small turkeys), you can remove the giblets
after approximately 30 minutes standing time.
Disinfect bottles P 38
Always clean baby bottles with a bottle brush immediately after
feeding. Then clean them in the dishwasher.
Place the bottles in the perforated cooking container so that
they do not touch one another.
Dry the bottles with a clean cloth after disinfecting. The process
corresponds to normal sterilisation by boiling.
Preserve P 39
This programme is suitable for fruits with a stone or core and
for vegetables (except beans).
Blanch pumpkin before preserving.
The programme is designed for 1 litre jars.
After the end of the programme, open the appliance door to
prevent cooking from continuing. Leave the jars to cool down
for a few minutes in the cooking compartment.
Cook eggs P 40
Pierce the eggs before cooking. Do not place eggs on top of
each other. Size M corresponds to a unit weight of approx.
50 g.

Cleaning agents
Cleaning sponge
The enclosed cleaning sponge is very absorbent. Use the
cleaning sponge only for cleaning the cooking compartment
and for removing residual water from the evaporator dish.
Wash the cleaning sponge thoroughly before using for the first
time. You can wash the cleaning sponge in the washing
machine (hot wash).
Microfibre cloth
The honeycomb microfibre cloth is particularly suitable for
cleaning sensitive surfaces such as glass, glass ceramic,
stainless steel or aluminium (product no. 460 770, also
available from our online eShop). It removes liquid and greasy
deposits in one go.
Roasting set
If possible use the roasting set when roasting (ordering
no. Z1684X3, also available online in the eShop). This
considerably reduces the amount of spatter from the roast and
therefore the amount of soiling in the cooking compartment.

The cleaning aid loosens dirt in the cooking compartment using
steam. It can then be removed easily.
The cleaning process consists of:
■ Cleaning (approx. 30 minutes), then empty the evaporator
dish and wipe out the appliance
■ 1st rinse (20 seconds), then empty the evaporator dish
■ 2nd rinse (20 seconds), then remove the remaining water
All three steps must be completed in full. The appliance is
ready for operation again only after the 2nd rinse.

Tips for saving energy
■ Only preheat the appliance if this is specified in the recipe or
in the operating instructions table.
■ Open the appliance door as infrequently as possible while
the food is cooking.
■ Use dark, black lacquered or enamelled baking tins for
baking. They absorb the heat particularly well.
■ It is best to bake several cakes one after the other. The
combination steam oven will still be hot. This reduces the
baking time for the second cake. You can also place two loaf
tins next to each other.
■ If the cooking time is relatively long, you can switch off the
combination steam oven 10 minutes before the end of the
cooking time and use the oven's residual heat to complete
the cooking process.
■ When steaming, you can cook on several levels at the same
time. When preparing foods with different cooking times,
those with the longest cooking time should be placed in the
oven first.

Tables and tips
The tables contain a selection of dishes which are particularly
suitable for your combination steam oven. You can find out
which operating mode, accessories and cooking time to select.
Unless otherwise stated, the information given applies to
inserting accessories when the appliance is cold.
Accessories
Use the accessories provided.
When steaming in the perforated cooking container, always
insert the baking tray underneath. Dripping liquid is caught.
Ovenware
When using ovenware, always place it in the middle of the wire
rack.
Ovenware must be heat and steam resistant. Cooking times are
increased if thick-sided ovenware is used.
Food which would normally be prepared in a bain-marie should
always be covered with foil (e.g.when melting chocolate).
Steam cooking
Steaming is a particularly gentle way of cooking food. The
steam surrounds the dish thereby preventing a loss of nutrients
from the food. Cooking takes place without excess pressure.
As a result, the shape, colour and typical aroma of the dishes
are retained.
Cooking times and quantities
The cooking times when steaming depend on the item size, but
do not depend on the total quantity. The appliance can steam
food to a maximum of 2 kg.
Follow the unit sizes given in the tables. The cooking time is
reduced for smaller pieces and increased for larger ones.
Cooking time is also influenced by the quality and ripeness of
the food. The values quoted can therefore only serve as a
guideline.
Distributing food evenly
Always distribute the food evenly in the ovenware. It will not
cook evenly if the layers are of different depths.
Pressure-sensitive food
When layering delicate foods in the cooking container, do not
pile them too high. It is better to use two containers.
Cooking a menu
With steam, you can cook a whole menu at once, without the
different flavours mixing. Place the food with the longest
cooking time in the appliance first and delay the rest until the
appropriate time. This means that all the food will be ready at
the same time.
The overall cooking time is extended with menu cooking, as a
little steam escapes each time the appliance door is opened
and has to be reheated.
Hot air
The Hot Air operating mode is ideal for sweet and savoury
baking, pot roasts and various cakes.
CircoSteam®
The CircoSteam® operating mode uses a combination of hot
air and steam, and is particularly suitable for the preparation of
roast dishes, chicken and baked items such as yeast-risen
pastry and bread.
Roasts and chicken are nice and crisp on the outside and juicy
inside. What is more, meat loses less of its weight.
Baked items, such as yeast-risen pastry and bread, take on a
particularly attractive surface shine and they do not dry out.
Vegetables
Place the vegetables in the perforated cooking container and
insert at level 3. Insert the baking tray underneath at level 1.
Dripping liquid is caught.

Poultry and meat
Insert the wire rack and baking tray together at the same level. When the roast is cooked, switch off the combination steam
oven and leave it to rest for a further 10 minutes with the door
closed. This will keep the meat juicy.
Using the CircoSteam® operating mode, the meat remains
particularly tender on the inside while crispy on the outside.

Using the roasting set Using the roasting set will give optimum results and the cooking compartment will stay
as clean as possible. You can purchase the roasting set as an accessory from specialist
retailers (see section: Accessories)
When is the roast ready? Use a meat thermometer (available from specialist retailers) or carry out the "spoon test":
press down on the roast with a spoon. If it feels firm, it is ready. If the spoon can be
pressed in, it needs to be cooked for a little longer.
The roast is too dark and the outside is
burnt in places.
Check the shelf height and temperature.
The roast looks good but the juices are
burnt.
Next time, choose a smaller roasting dish or add more liquid.
The roast looks good, but the juices are

Dessert, compote
Compote:
Weigh the fruit and add approximately
Y the amount of water,
then add sugar and spices to taste.
Rice pudding
Weigh the rice and add 2.5 times the amount of milk. Ensure
the level of rice and milk in the accessory is no higher than
2.5 cm. Stir after cooking. The remaining milk is quickly
absorbed.
Yoghurt
Heat the milk to 90 °C on the hob. Then leave to cool to 40 °C.
If you are using UHT milk, you do not need to heat it.
Stir in one to two teaspoons of natural yoghurt per 100 ml milk,
or the corresponding amount of yoghurt culture into the milk.
Pour the mixture into clean jars and seal them.
After preparation, leave the glasses to cool in the refrigerator.
Cakes and pastries
It is best to use dark-coloured metal baking tins.
The temperature and cooking time depend on the quantity and
composition of the dough. That is why ranges of temperatures
are given in the tables.
First set the lower temperature. This will brown the dish more
evenly. A higher temperature can be selected next time, if
required.
Do not overpack the wire rack or baking tray with food.

from the day before can be recrisped.
Defrosting
When freezing, lay the food as flat as possible and in portion-
sized pieces at -18 °C. Do not freeze excessively large
quantities. Once defrosted, food will not keep for as long and
spoils more quickly than fresh food.
Leave the food to defrost in the freezer bag, on a plate or on
the perforated cooking container. Always insert the baking tray
underneath. The food is then not left lying in the defrost water
and the cooking compartment remains clean.
Use the Steam cooking operating mode.
If necessary, the food can occasionally be split apart or pieces
which have already defrosted can be removed from the
appliance.
After defrosting, allow the food to stand for a further 5 -
15 minutes to come up to room temperature.
: Health risk!
When defrosting food from animal sources, you must remove
the liquid that escapes during defrosting. It must never come
into contact with other food. Bacteria could be transferred.
After defrosting, operate the combination steam oven for
15 minutes using Hot air at 180 °C.
Defrost meat
Allow pieces of meat which are to be breadcrumbed to defrost
to the point where seasoning and breadcrumbs adhere to the
meat.
Defrosting poultry
Remove from packaging before defrosting. You must tip the
defrost liquid away.
Cakes baked in a tray or tin are over-
browned at the back
Place the baking tray in the middle of the accessories, not directly against the rear wall
The cake is too dry Make tiny holes in the finished cake using a cocktail stick. Then drizzle fruit juice or an
alcoholic drink over it. Next time, set the temperature 10 °C higher and shorten the bak-
ing times or use the CircoSteam® operating mode
The bread or cake looks good but it is
soggy inside (overmoist with wet
streaks)
Next time, use less liquid. Bake at a lower temperature for a little longer. For cakes with a
moist topping, bake the base first. Cover the base with almonds or bread crumbs first
and then apply the topping. Observe the baking time in the recipe
The cake or pastry is unevenly browned Next time, set the temperature a little lower

Proving dough
With Steam cooking, dough will prove considerably more
quickly than at room temperature.
You can select any shelf position you wish for the wire rack or
you can place the wire rack carefully on the cooking
compartment floor.
Caution: Do not scratch the cooking compartment floor.
Stand the dough bowl on the wire rack. Do not cover the
dough.
Juicing
Before juicing, place the berries in a bowl and sprinkle with
sugar. Leave to stand for at least one hour to draw out the
juice.
Add the berries to the perforated cooking container and insert
at level 3. Slide the baking tray into level 1 to catch the juice.
Finally, place the berries in a cloth and squeeze out the rest of
the juice.
Preserve
Preserve food which is as fresh as possible. When foods are
stored for a relatively long period, their vitamin content is
reduced and they cook more readily.
Only use fruit and vegetables which are in perfect condition.
The following foods cannot be preserved with your appliance:
Contents of tins, meat, fish or pastry dough.
Check preserving jars, rubber rings, clips and springs.
Clean rubber rings and jars thoroughly with hot water. The
"Sterilise bottles" programme is also suitable for cleaning
glasses.
Place the jars in the perforated cooking container. They must
not be in contact with each other.
After the specified cooking time, open the appliance door.
Do not remove the preserving jars from the appliance until they
have completely cooled down.
Frozen products
Observe the instructions on the packaging. The cooking times indicated apply to dishes placed in a cold
cooking compartment.
