much on the baking tray.
If possible, use the deeper universal pan.
Using oven cleaner in a hot cooking compartment dam-
ages the enamel.
Never use oven cleaner in the cooking compartment
when it is still warm.
Remove all food remnants from the cooking compart-
ment and the appliance door before you next heat up
the appliance.
If the seal is very dirty, the appliance door will no longer
close properly during operation. This may damage the
front of adjacent kitchen units.
Keep the seal clean at all times.
Never operate the appliance if the seal is damaged or
missing.
Sitting or placing objects on the appliance door may
damage it.
Do not place, hang or support objects on the appli-
ance door.
Do not place cookware or accessories on the appli-
ance door.
With certain models, accessories may scratch the door
pane when closing the appliance door.
Always push accessories fully into the cooking com-
partment.

tion with steam.
Cookware must be heat- and steam-resistant.
Using cookware with rust spots may cause corrosion in
the cooking compartment. Even the smallest spots of
rust can cause corrosion.
Do not use cookware with rust spots.
Dripping liquids make the cooking compartment floor
dirty.
When steaming with a perforated cooking container,
always place the baking tray, the universal pan or the
unperforated cooking container underneath. This will
catch any liquid that drips down.
Hot water in the water tank may damage the steam sys-
tem.
Only fill the water tank with cold water.
If there is water on the cooking compartment floor when
operating the appliance at temperatures above 120°C,
this will damage the enamel.
Do not use the appliance if there is water on the
cooking compartment floor.

floor before operation.
A lot of steam is produced during operation with the
types of steam heating. Condensate that collects in the
drip trough underneath the cooking compartment may
overflow and damage adjacent units.
Do not open the appliance door, or open it as infre-
quently as possible, while the appliance is in opera-
tion.
If descaling solution comes into contact with the control
panel or other delicate surfaces, it will damage them.
Remove descaling solution immediately with water.
Cleaning the water tank in the dishwasher will damage
it.
Do not clean the water tank in the dishwasher.
Clean the water tank with a soft cloth and standard
washing-up liquid.
If several steam operations are carried out one after the
other without wiping out the cooking compartment floor
and the condensate tray afterwards in each case, the
water collected may overflow and may damage furniture
panels or bases.
Wipe down the cooking compartment floor and the
condensate tray after every steam operation.
Environmental protection and saving energy3 Environmental protection and saving energy
3.1 Disposing of packaging
The packaging materials are environmentally compatible
and can be recycled.
Sort the individual components by type and dispose
of them separately.
3.2 Saving energy
If you follow these instructions, your appliance will use
less power.
Only preheat the appliance if the recipe or the recom-
mended settings tell you to do so. How it works
"How it works", Page39
Not preheating the appliance can reduce the energy
used by up to 20%.
Use dark-coloured, black-coated or enamelled baking
tins.
These types of baking tin absorb the heat particularly
well.
Open the appliance door as little as possible during op-
eration.
This maintains the temperature in the cooking com-
partment and eliminates the need for the appliance to
reheat.
When baking multiple dishes, do so in succession or in
parallel.
The cooking compartment is heated after baking the
first dish. This reduces the baking time for the sub-
sequent cakes.
For longer cooking times, you can switch the appliance
off 10minutes before the cooking time ends.

background
en Familiarising yourself with your appliance
There is sufficient residual heat to finish cooking the
dish.
Remove any accessories that are not being used from
the cooking compartment.
Accessories that are not being used do not need to
be heated.
Allow frozen food to defrost before cooking.
This saves the energy that would otherwise be re-
quired to defrost it.
Switch off the display in the basic settings.
"Basic settings", Page23
Energy is saved when the display is switched off.
Note: In accordance with the EU Ecodesign Directive
2023/826, this appliance is in a different state when
switched off. This is referred to below as low power
mode.
Even when the main function is not active, the appliance
needs energy for:
Detecting operation of the touch keys
Monitoring door opening
Editing the time (without display)
By definition, therefore, there is neither an “off” nor a
“standby” mode, which is why the term low power mode
is used. EN IEC 60350-1:2023 must be used to meas-
ure low power mode.

"Rails", Page30
Self-cleaning surfaces
The back panel in the cooking compartment is self-
cleaning. The self-cleaning surfaces are coated with a
porous, matt ceramic layer and have a rough surface.
When the appliance is in operation, the self-cleaning
surfaces absorb splashes from roasting or grilling and
break them down.
If the self-cleaning surfaces no longer clean themselves
adequately during operation, heat up the cooking com-
partment specifically to the right temperature.
"Regenerating self-cleaning surfaces in the cooking
compartment", Page27
Lighting
One or more oven lights illuminate the cooking compart-
ment.
When you open the appliance door, the light in the
cooking compartment switches on. If the appliance door
remains open for longer than 15minutes, the light
switches off again.
For most functions, the lighting is switched on during
operation. The lighting switches off again when the oper-
ation ends.
Cooling fan
The cooling fan switches on and off depending on the
appliance's temperature. The hot air escapes above the
door.
ATTENTION
Covering the ventilation slots will cause the appliance to
overheat.
Do not cover the ventilation slots.
To cool down the appliance and remove residual mois-
ture from the cooking compartment, the cooling fan runs
for a certain time after operation.
Note: You can change the run-on time in the basic set-
tings. If you frequently prepare very moist food or keep
it warm in the cooking compartment, set a longer run-on
time.

7.1 Determining the water hardness before switching on the appliance for the first time
Before using the appliance for the first time, ask your water supplier about the hardness of your tap water. To ensure
that the appliance can reliably remind you to descale it when required, you must set your water hardness range cor-
rectly.
ATTENTION
If the wrong water hardness has been set, the steam function is impaired and appliance cannot remind you to de-
scale it at the right time.
Set the water hardness correctly.
Using unsuitable liquids may damage the appliance.
Do not use distilled water or other liquids.
Only use cold, fresh tap water, softened water or non-carbonated mineral water.
Malfunctions may occur when using filtered or demineralised water. The appliance may request that you top up the
water tank even though it may be full, or operation with steam is cancelled after approx. twominutes.
If required, mix filtered or demineralised water with the bottled non-carbonated mineral water with a ratio of
onetoone.
Notes
If you are using mineral water, set the water hardness range to "very hard". If you are using mineral water, you
must only use non-carbonated mineral water.
If your tap water is very hard, we recommend that you use softened water. If you are using only softened water, set
the "softened" water hardness range.

7.3 Cleaning the appliance before using it
for the first time
Before using the appliance to cook food for the first
time, you must clean the cooking compartment and ac-
cessories.
1.
Remove the product information and the accessories
from the cooking compartment. Remove any leftover
packaging, such as polystyrene pellets, and any ad-
hesive tape that is in or on the appliance.
2.
Wipe the smooth surfaces in the cooking compart-
ment with a soft, damp cloth.
3.
Clean the accessories thoroughly using a detergent
solution and a dish cloth or soft brush.
7.4 Calibrating the appliance before using it
for the first time
The boiling point of water depends on the air pressure.
During the calibration process, the appliance makes ad-
justments to adapt to the pressure conditions in the loc-
ation where it is installed based on the height above sea
level.
Calibrating the request in the display
When you switch on the appliance, a notification ap-
pears on the display to calibrate the appliance. You can
close the notification and use your appliance as normal.
However, the request appears every time the appliance
is switched on until calibration is complete.
Incorrect calibration impairs the steam function.
Note: Depending on the software status of your appli-
ance, you must first download this function to your appli-
ance. You can find more information in the HomeCon-
nect app.
Or calibrate your appliance manually by letting the
steam function run for 30 minutes when the cooking
compartment is empty.
"Steam", Page15

9.2 Steam heating functions
Your appliance has several types of steam heating.
"Types of steam heating", Page9
ATTENTION
A lot of steam is produced during operation with the
types of steam heating. Condensate that collects in the
drip trough underneath the cooking compartment may
overflow and damage adjacent units.
Do not open the appliance door, or open it as infre-
quently as possible, while the appliance is in opera-
tion.
Steam
During "Steam", the food is enveloped by hot steam,
which helps to retain the nutrients. This cooking method
also helps to retain the shape, colour and typical flavour
of the food.
When temperatures between 105°C and 120°C are
set, the cooking time is reduced. This means that even
more nutrients and vitamins are retained when steam-
ing.

Notes
Enamel burns at very high temperatures, causing minor discoloura-
tion. The functionality of your appliance is not affected by this.
The edges of thin trays cannot be completely enamelled and may
be rough. This does not impair the corrosion protection.
Food residues leave a white coating on the enamel surfaces. The
coating does not pose a health risk. The functionality of your appli-
ance is not affected by this. You can remove residues with lemon
juice.

Descaling en
Descaling19 Descaling
To ensure that your appliance continues to operate cor-
rectly, it must be descaled regularly.
How frequently you need to run the descaling pro-
gramme depends on the water hardness and how many
times you have used the steam-assisted operations. The
appliance indicates when only another 5 or fewer
steam-assisted operations are possible. If you do not
carry out descaling, you can no longer set any operation
with steam.
Descaling comprises several steps and takes approxim-
ately 70-95minutes:
Descaling (approx.55-70minutes)
First rinse cycle (approx.8-12minutes)
Second rinse cycle (approx.8-12minutes)
Carry out descaling in full.
If descaling is interrupted, you can no longer set any op-
eration. To ensure that the appliance is ready for opera-
tion again, carry out 2 rinse cycles.
19.1 Preparing descaling

en How it works
Tip: A lot of other information about the preparation,
corresponding adjustment values and recipes can be
found in the HomeConnect app or on our website
www.neff-home.com
.
28.1 General cooking tips
Take note of the following information when cooking all
types of food.
The temperature and cooking time depend on the
amount of food and the recipe. Settings ranges are
specified for this reason. Try using the lower values to
start with.
The setting values apply to food placed in the cook-
ing compartment while the cooking compartment is
still cold. If you want to preheat anyway, do not place
accessories into the cooking compartment until it has
finished preheating.
Remove any accessories that are not being used
from the cooking compartment.
You can buy suitable accessories from customer ser-
vice, from specialist retailers or online.
"Other accessories", Page12
28.2 Baking tips
Dark-coloured metal baking tins are most suitable for
baking cakes, bread and other baked goods.
Use wide, shallow cookware for bakes and gratins.
Food takes longer to cook in deep, narrow cookware
and it browns more on top.
If you are cooking bakes directly in the universal pan,
place the universal pan into the cooking compartment
at level1.
The setting values for bread dough apply to both
dough placed on a baking tray and dough placed in
a loaf tin.
ATTENTION
When the cooking compartment is hot, any water inside
it will create steam. The change in temperature may
cause damage.
Never pour water into the cooking compartment when
it is still hot.
Never place cookware containing water on the cook-
ing compartment floor.
Shelf positions
You will obtain the best results if you use the following
shelf positions.
If you are baking on one level, use shelf position 1.
Baking on 2levels Height
Universal pan
Baking tray
3
1
Baking tins/dishes on two wire racks 3
1
Use the CircoThermhot air heating function.
Note: Items that are placed in the appliance on baking
trays or in baking tins/dishes at the same time will not
necessarily be ready at the same time.
28.3 Roasting, braising and grilling tips
The recommended settings are for fridge-temperature
food and unstuffed, oven-ready poultry.
Place the poultry onto the cookware breast-side or
skin-side down.
Turn roasting joints, grilled items or whole fish after
approx. ½ to ⅔ of the specified time.
Roasting on the wire rack
Food roasted on the wire rack will become very crispy
on all sides. You can roast large poultry, for example, or
multiple individual pieces at the same time.
Roast pieces of a similar weight and thickness. The
grilled food will brown evenly and will remain succu-
lent and juicy.
Place the food to be roasted directly on the wire rack.
To catch any liquids that drip down, place the univer-
sal pan, with the wire rack inside it, into the cooking
compartment at the specified shelf height.
Add up to ½litre of water to the universal pan, de-
pending on the size and type of food that you want to
roast.
You can make a sauce from the juices that are collec-
ted. This also means that less smoke is produced
and the cooking compartment does not become as
dirty.
Roasting in cookware
If you cover the cookware when you cook your food,
this will keep the cooking compartment cleaner.
General information about roasting in cookware
Use heat-resistant, ovenproof cookware.
Place the cookware on the wire rack.
Glass cookware is best.
Follow the manufacturer's instructions for your roast-
ing dishes.
Roasting in uncovered cookware
Use a deep roasting dish.
If you do not have any suitable cookware, you can
use the universal pan.
Roasting in covered cookware
Use a suitable lid that seals well.
When roasting meat, there should be at least 3cm
between the food and the lid. The meat may expand.
WARNING‒Risk ofscalding!
Very hot steam may escape when the lid is opened after
cooking. Steam may not be visible, depending on the
temperature.
Lift the lid in such a way that the hot steam can es-
cape away from you.
Keep children away from the appliance.
Grilling
Grill food if you want it to be crispy.
The "Grill" type of heating is good for cooking thinner
pieces of poultry, meat and fish such as steaks, drum-
sticks and burgers. It is also excellent for toasting
bread.
Circo-roasting is very well suited to cooking whole
poultry and fish, as well as meat, e.g. roast pork with
crackling.
40
background
How it works en
When grilling several food items, choose pieces that
are of a similar weight and thickness. The grilled food
will brown evenly and will remain succulent and juicy.
Place the food to be grilled directly onto the wire
rack.
To catch any liquids that drip down, place the univer-
sal pan into the cooking compartment at least one
level below the wire rack.
Notes
The grill element switches on and off continuously.
This is normal. The temperature that you set determ-
ines how frequently this occurs.
Smoke may be produced when grilling.
28.4 Cooking tips for steaming
Cook your food gently. The food remains particularly
succulent.
In contrast to cooking with added steam, the meat does
not become crispy on the outside.
Use uncovered, heat-resistant cookware that is suit-
able for cooking with steam.
The perforated steaming tray, size XL, is the best op-
tion here. To catch any liquid that drips down, slide
the universal pan into the cooking compartment one
level below.
Alternatively, you can place a glass dish onto the wire
rack.
Cover food that you would normally cook in a bain
marie with film, e.g. cling film.
You do not need to turn the food.
To obtain a slightly different flavour, you can sear the
meat, poultry or fish before steaming. Reduce the
cooking time.
Larger food items require a longer heat-up time and a
longer cooking time.
If you are using several pieces which are the same
weight, the appliance's heat-up time is increased. The
cooking time remains the same.
Open the door as infrequently as possible during
steaming. Wipe the condensate drip tray after prepar-
ation. If the condensate drip tray overflows, this may
cause damage to kitchen units.
The main part of the user manual contains informa-
tion on how to configure the steam settings.
"Steam", Page15
Vegetables on several levels
You can easily cook more than one type of food or even
whole menus, e.g. broccoli and potatoes, on 2 levels.
Page44
Rice or cereal products
Add water or liquid in the specified ratio.
For example, 1:1.5 means add 150ml liquid for every
100g rice.
28.5 Cooking instructions for ready meals
The cooking result greatly depends on the quality of
the food. Pre-browning and irregularities may already
be present in the food before cooking.
Do not use frozen products that are covered with a
thick layer of ice. Remove any ice on the food.
Take ready meals out of the packaging.
If you are warming or cooking the ready meal in
cookware, make sure that the cookware is heat-resist-
ant.
Distribute foods that are in the form of separate
pieces, such as bread rolls and potato products, so
that they are spread out flat and evenly on the ac-
cessory. Leave a little space between the individual
pieces.
Follow the manufacturer's instructions on the pack-
aging.

Place the food with the longest cooking time into the
cooking compartment first. Add the rest of the food at
the appropriate time. This means that all the food will
be ready at the same time.
Follow the cooking instructions for each of the differ-
ent foods.
The heat-up time varies depending on the size and
weight of the food.
The cooking time is unaffected by the quantity of
food.
Use cookware that is steam-resistant.
Cover the soufflé with film, e.g. cling film.
Always insert the universal pan at level 1.
The overall cooking time is extended when cooking
whole meals with steam, as a little steam escapes
each time the appliance door is opened and the
cooking compartment has to be reheated.

Sous-vide
Sous-vide cooking is a method of cooking in a vacuum
at low temperatures between 50 and 95C and in 100%
steam.
Sous-vide cooking is a gentle method of cooking meat,
fish, vegetables and desserts.
A chamber vacuum-sealing machine is used to heat-
seal the food in a special air-tight, heat-resistant va-
cuum-sealing bag.
The protective envelope of the vacuum-sealing bag re-
tains the nutrients and flavours. The low temperatures
and the direct transfer of heat allow precisely controlled
cooking in order to achieve the desired cooking results.
It is almost impossible to overcook the food.
Sous-vide cooking tips
Servings
Take into consideration the specified quantities and
sizes for the food listed in the recommended set-
tings tables. Adjust the cooking time for larger
quantities and items.
The appliance can cook up to 2kg of food sous-
vide.
For vegetables and desserts, the specified quantity
is for 4people.
You can cook on up to 2 levels. When you do this, al-
ways slide the universal pan in at level1 to catch any
drops of condensate. Insert the wire racks at the
levels above accordingly.
The quality of the cooking result is 100% influenced
by the quality of the ingredients you use. Use only
fresh, top-quality food. This is the only way to guaran-
tee a consistent cooking result that delivers impec-
cable flavour.
Vacuum-sealing food
To ensure an even transfer of heat and an optimised
cooking result, use a chamber vacuum-sealing machine
that can create a 99% vacuum when vacuum-sealing
food.
Tip: To prevent gases escaping from the food, e.g. from
vegetables, vacuum-seal the food no more than one day
before you cook it. The gases inhibit the transfer of heat
or cause the texture of the food to change, thus altering
how it cooks, as a result of the vacuum pressure.
Note: Do not use a core temperature probe.
1.
Season food with half the usual the amount of spices.
Cooking in a vacuum means that the flavours cannot
escape. The usual quantities of flavourings such as
spices, herbs and garlic affect the taste much more
and intensify it.
Tip: You can intensify the natural flavours of high-
quality food simply by adding a small knob of butter
and a little salt to the vacuum-sealing bag.
Different ingredients affect how the food cooks:
Salt and sugar reduce the cooking time.
Acidic ingredients such as lemon juice or vinegar
make food firmer.
Alcohol and garlic give the food an unpleasant
after-taste.
2.
To fill the vacuum-sealing bag, fold over the edge of
the bag 3-4cm from the top and place the bag into
a receptacle such as a measuring jug.
When you fill the vacuum-sealing bag, make sure that
there are no traces of food left on the seam area of
the vacuum-sealing bag.
3.
Before cooking the food, check that the vacuum in
the bag is intact.
Make sure that:
There is no air in the vacuum-sealing bag.
1
Preheat the appliance.

background
en How it works
The heat-sealed seam is perfectly sealed.
There are no holes in the vacuum-sealing bag.
Pieces of meat or fish that have been vacuum-
sealed together are not pressed directly against
one another.
4.
If the vacuum-sealing bag is not filled as it should be,
place the food into a new bag and vacuum-seal it
again.
Preparing food for sous-vide cooking
There are germs on the surface of virtually all food.
WARNING‒Risk of harm to health!
Sous-vide cooking is a method of cooking at low tem-
peratures and, if the instructions for use and hygiene in-
structions are not adhered to, it may result adverse
health effects.
Only use high-quality, perfectly fresh food.
Wash and disinfect your hands.
Use disposable gloves, cooking tongs or grill tongs.
Take extra care when preparing critical food, such as
poultry, eggs and fish.
Always thoroughly rinse and peel fruit and vegetables.
Always keep work surfaces and chopping boards
clean.
Use different chopping boards for different types of
food.
Only interrupt the cold chain briefly to prepare the
food.
Store vacuum-sealed food in the refrigerator for a
maximum of 24hours before you start the cooking
process.
Once the food is cooked, consume it immediately. Do
not store it after cooking – not even in the refriger-
ator. It is not suitable for reheating.
To kill the germs, dip the vacuum-sealing bag con-
taining the uncooked food into boiling water for no
more than 3seconds.
This minimises the germs on your ingredients and
maximises hygiene, so your food is now ready for
sous-vide cooking.

1.
Place the food onto the wire rack.
To ensure that the heat is distributed evenly around
the food, do not place the vacuum-sealed food items
on top of one another or close together on the wire
rack.
2.
To catch any drops of condensate, slide the universal
pan in at level1.
3.
ATTENTION‒Risk of damage to kitchen units
Do not fill the water tank a second time for the
sous-vide cooking.
Use the recommended settings when configuring the
appliance settings.
The recommended settings are based on how long
one tankful of water lasts. As a general rule, depend-
ing on the set temperature, the following maximum
cooking times apply when the water tank is com-
pletely full:
Temperature in °C Max. cooking time in
minutes
50 270
60 210
70 150
80 120
90 90
4.
WARNING‒Risk ofscalding!
Hot water collects on the vacuum-sealing bag during
cooking.
Use an oven cloth to carefully lift the vacuum-seal-
ing bag so that the hot water runs off into the uni-
versal pan or the cooking container.
Use the oven cloth to carefully remove the vacuum-
sealing bag.
Once the food is cooked, allow the cooking compart-
ment to cool and then use a sponge to wipe away the
water.
5.
Dry the outside of the vacuum-sealing bag and place
it in a clean container.
6.
Use scissors to open the vacuum-sealing bag. Place
all of the food and liquid into the container.
You can use the stock or marinade to make a sauce.
7.
Prepare the food for serving.
Food Cooking tips
Meat Dab the meat with a tea towel before
placing it into hot oil, in order to
avoid fat spitting out of the pan.
Sear the meat at a very high temper-
ature for a few seconds on each
side. This gives the meat a nice crust
and the flavours you would expect
from frying, without overcooking it.
Fish Season the fish and coat with hot
butter.
To give the fish a nice crust and the
flavours you would expect from fry-
ing, sear it for a few seconds on
each side.
Fry the food for longer if has not
been sufficiently well cooked during
the sous-vide cooking stage.
Serve the fish on preheated plates
and with a hot sauce or butter, as
sous-vide cooking takes place at low
temperatures.
Vegetables Sear the vegetables briefly to give
them the flavours you would expect
from frying.
Season the vegetables or mix them
with other ingredients.
