General notes

Shelf level
You can select any shelf level. You can
also cook on several levels at the same
time. This will not alter the cooking du-
ration.
When using more than one deep cook-
ing container at the same time, it is best
to offset them on their runners and to
leave at least one level free in between
them.
Always insert cooking containers and
the rack between the rails of the shelf
level supports so that they cannot tip.
Frozen food
The heating up phase for frozen food is
longer than for fresh food. The greater
the quantity of frozen food, the longer
the preheating phase.
Temperature
During steam cooking, the temperature
does not exceed 212°F (100°C). Almost
all foods can be cooked at this temper-
ature. Some types of food, such as
berries, need to be cooked at lower
temperatures to prevent them from
bursting. See the relevant sections in
these operating instructions for more
details.
Cooking duration
During steam cooking, the cooking du-
ration does not begin until the set tem-
perature is reached.
In general, the cooking durations for
cooking with steam are the same as for
cooking food in a saucepan. More infor-
mation about any factors which may af-
fect the cooking duration is given in the
relevant sections.
The quantity of food does not affect the
cooking duration. 2 lb (1kg) of potatoes
will take the same time to cook as 1 lb
(500g) of potatoes.
Cooking with liquid
When cooking with liquid only fill the
cooking pan ²/₃full to prevent the liquid
spilling when the cooking pan is re-
moved from the oven.
Your own recipes - Steam
cooking
Food and recipes which are prepared in
pot or a pan can also be cooked in the
steam oven. The cooking times in the
steam oven will be the same. Please
note that food will not be brown or crisp
when cooking with steam.
