cuum-packed food is gently steamed. The food probe temperature can be monitored

with the food probe. The food probe temperature is the set cooking space temperature.

This ensures that the food is cooked to the same degree of doneness throughout.

Temperature range 30–95 °C

Recommended value 60 °C

Level 1 to 4

Recommended maximum cooking time 48 hours

The cooking space is heated simultaneously by steam and hot air. The food is heated or

cooked by steam.

7 GourmetGuide

Tips for an optimal result

▪ Only use fresh food. This applies to meat and fish in particular. Food that has already

been kept for some time has a higher bacterial content and is therefore unsuitable for

Vacuisine.

▪ Meat quality: Both lean (e.g. fillet) and marbled, more sinewy (e.g. stewing meat and

belly pork) cuts of meat and can be prepared optimally using Vacuisine.

Preparing the food

▪ Vacuum seal the food. For this, see the tips in the operating instructions for the va-

cuum drawer, on the homepage or in the recipe brochure.

▪ To monitor the food probe temperature of the meat with the food probe, the spot

where the food probe punctures the vacuum bag must be sealed with a sealing pad

(see page 62). This ensures that the vacuum is maintained in the bag.

▸ Attach a sealing pad to the bag con-

taining the vacuumed food, having

first ensured that the bag is clean and

dry.

▸ Insert the food probe through the seal-

ing pad and the bag, and into the

meat. The tip of the food probe should

be inserted into the centre of the thick-

est end of the meat.

Selecting and starting Vacuisine

▸ Put the perforated cooking tray into the cooking space and place the vacuum-sealed

food in it.

Ensure that the bags are adjacent and not overlapping so that the steam can cir-

culate and cook the food evenly.

The filled water tank must be in position in the water tank compartment.

If the desired cooking time is longer than 10 hours, place the stainless steel tray

underneath the perforated cooking tray.

▸ Plug the food probe into the appliance, if necessary.

▸ If the appliance is switched off: first press the adjusting knob.

▸ Press the touch button.

▸ Select .

▸ Make the desired settings.

▸ If a cooking time of 10–48 hours is required, use the timer (see page 27) only to

check the cooking time. «Vacuisine» will continue to run until interrupted manually.

The cooking time can be monitored with the timer.

▸ To start Vacuisine, select .

With «Vacuisine», the food probe only serves to monitor the food probe temperat-

ure. It is not possible to set the food probe temperature. If the food probe is

plugged in for monitoring, an acoustic signal is emitted when the core temperature

of the meat is roughly the same as the temperature of the cooking space.

7 GourmetGuide

Monitoring the food probe temperature using the food probe temperature

▸ When the food probe temperature and the cooking space temperature are roughly the

same:

– an acoustic signal is emitted.

– «Food has reached food probe temperature.» appears in the display.

– the meat is cooked. The operation is not cancelled.

– the meat can be left in the appliance for up to an hour.

▸ If the cooking time (not timer!) is accidentally set too short and is up before the food

probe temperature has been reached:

– the operation is not cancelled.

– an acoustic signal is emitted.

– «Food has not yet reached food probe temperature. Operation will continue.» ap-

pears in the display.

7.4 BakeOmatic

BakeOmatic comprises applications for different food groups. The size and shape of

the food are recognized and the duration and cooking space climate are adjusted auto-

matically. BakeOmatic is suitable for the following foods and dishes:

Fresh aperitif nibbles Frozen pizza (F) *

Frozen aperitif nibbles (F) * Flan

Gratin Bread

Soufflé Plaited bread

Baked potatoes Yeast pastries with filling

Pre-fried frozen products (F) * Loaf cake

Braising meat Muffins / tray-baked cake

Fresh pizza

* Depending on the software version

Degree of browning

For certain food categories, the degree of browning can be adjusted by selecting the

«lightly browned», «medium browned» or «well browned» setting.

When used for frozen products, the approximate duration indicated on the pack-

aging must be selected instead of the degree of browning. Frozen products are

prepared in a variety of ways.

Duration

When BakeOmatic starts, sensors determine the optimum duration. The effective duration

is displayed after about 10–15 minutes.

Before starting, the cooking space must have cooled down and be dry in order to

determine the optimum duration.

The appliance door must not be opened whilst the duration is being determined.

7 GourmetGuide

Preheating

In the case of the «Flan» food group, after starting, separate preheating takes place

first. Put the food in after preheating has ended.

Selecting and starting BakeOmatic

The filled water tank must be in position in the water tank compartment.

A delayed start is only possible for applications where preheating is not required

and is only suitable for food that does not need to be refrigerated or to rise.

▸ If the appliance is switched off: first press the adjusting knob.

▸ Press the touch button.

▸ Select .

▸ Select the desired application.

▸ Select the degree of browning or, for frozen products, the appropriate time indicated

on the packaging.

– The BakeOmatic settings are displayed.

– The following appears in the display: « is being determined.».

– The countdown to the time remaining appears in the display and in the digital dis-

play.

The appliance door must not be opened whilst the duration is being determined.

Otherwise, the optimal duration and temperature will not be calculated correctly.

7.5 Professional baking

With professional baking, the cold cooking space is heated by a steam phase

(about 10 minutes) and a hot air phase, which follows automatically. This makes yeast

and puff pastries light and airy while also forming a nice, shiny crust. «Proofing» allows

you to proof a large batch of dough or pre-prepared portions at optimal temperature and

humidity levels.

Professional baking has the following range of uses:

Bread

Plaited bread

Puff pastry

Proofing

The appliance door must not be opened during the steam phase, as this would al-

low cold air to stream in, extending the steam phase and oversteaming the bread.

The bread would come out flatter as a result.

7 GourmetGuide

Tips

▪ Allow bread, bread buns and other yeast pastries to proof for about 15 minutes after

forming into shape. Place on a stainless steel tray, which has been lined with baking

paper, put it into the cold cooking space and bake.

▪ The adjustable temperature corresponds to that of the hot air phase. The temperature

during the steam phase is preset.

▪ For a nice, crispy crust: the smaller the item to be baked, the higher the temperature.

The optimum temperature for bread buns is generally higher than for a single loaf of

bread.

▪ When using «Plaited bread», we recommend brushing the shaped dough with

egg wash.

Selecting and starting professional baking

▸ Put in the food.

▸ If the appliance is switched off, first press the adjusting knob.

▸ Press the touch button.

7.6 Soft roasting

How it functions

The soft roasting function allows high-quality cuts of meat to be prepared gently. You

can select exactly when the cooking process is complete, irrespective of the weight and

thickness of the meat. The temperature is automatically regulated.

The cooking time can be set to between 2½ and 4½ hours for «Soft roasting

seared» or between 1½ and 2½hours for «Soft roasting with steam».

Tips for an optimal result

▪ Take the meat out of the refrigerator some 30–60 minutes before soft roasting.

▪ Weight of meat:

– Soft roasting seared: 500–2000g

– Soft roasting with steam: 500–1500g

▪ Meat food probe temperature: up to 90°C

▪ Meat thickness: at least 4cm

▪ Quality: lean, high-quality meat

«Soft roasting seared»

▸ Season or marinate the meat.

Remove any marinade made with herbs, mustard, etc. from the meat before sear-

ing. These ingredients burn easily.

▸ Salt the meat immediately before searing.

▸ Briefly sear the meat all over for no longer than 5minutes.

▸ Then place the meat in a glass or porcelain roasting dish.

If you do not intend to sear the meat until after the soft roasting, lower the recom-

mended target temperature by around 3–4°C.

▸ Insert the food probe into the meat so that the tip is in the centre of the thickest part.

The food probe must be inserted as far into the middle of the meat as possible to

get a correct reading of the food probe temperature. The temperature inside the

meat is crucial for optimal results at the end of cooking.

▸ Put the wire shelf at level 2 and place the dish on it.

▸ Insert the food probe plug into the socket.

▸ Start «Soft roasting seared» (see page 41).

«Soft roasting with steam»

For «Soft roasting with steam», the meat is cooked gently with steam. Since steam

transfers energy better, shorter cooking times and thus energy savings are possible. As

steam produces condensate, more residual water is left in the cooking space at the end

of the cooking process than with «Soft roasting seared».

▸ Insert the food probe into the meat so that the tip is in the centre of the thickest part.

The food probe must be inserted as far into the middle of the meat as possible to

get a correct reading of the food probe temperature. The temperature inside the

meat is crucial for optimal results at the end of cooking.

or hay.

▸ Insert the food probe plug into the socket.

▸ Start «Soft roasting with steam» (see page 41).

▸ After soft roasting, gently sear the meat all over for a total of 4–6minutes.

▸ After searing, wrap the whole piece of meat in aluminium foil and leave it covered for

about 5minutes.

▸ Cut the meat and serve immediately.

As the meat is only seared after soft roasting for optical reasons, the recommen-

ded target temperature is 4°C lower than for «Soft roasting seared».

dampened with water and a little washing-up liquid. Wipe dry with a soft cloth.

▸ To remove dried-on soiling more easily, switch the appliance on for about 30 minutes

beforehand, setting it to the operating mode and a temperature of 80°C. This will

soften the soiling.

▸ For stubborn soiling, clean the cooking space when cold with a grease-dissolving

spray cleaner or cream cleaner in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.

12.3 Cleaning the appliance door

Under no circumstances may the appliance door be removed, otherwise the pro-

tection against leaking microwaves is no longer guaranteed.

12.8 Descaling

How it functions

Whenever steam is produced, depending on the hardness of the local water supply (i.e.

the limescale content of the water), limescale is deposited in the boiler.

The appliance automatically detects and indicates when descaling is necessary.

– After pressing the touch button and finishing a cooking process, the following ap-

pears in the display:

Would you like to descale the appliance now?

You must accompany the process.

12 Care and maintenance

We recommend descaling the appliance whenever the warning appears in the dis-

play. Continued to descale the appliance will likely impair its functions or cause

damage to the appliance. Descaling takes about 45 minutes.

Descaling interval

The time interval between descaling depends on the hardness of the water and fre-

quency of use. If steaming 4× 30 minutes per week, the appliance must be descaled –

depending on water hardness – roughly as follows:

Water hardness Descale after about

Hard 5 months

Medium 8 months

Soft 12 months

Read remaining operating time

The remaining steam operating time until the next descaling process can be read in the

user settings under «Descaling».

Descaler

durgol swiss steamer

Using the wrong descaler can damage the appliance!

Only use «durgol swiss steamer» to descale your appliance. The descaler contains

highly effective acid. Immediately rinse away any splashes with water. Follow the

manufacturer's instructions.

See «Accessories and spare parts» for where to obtain this descaler (see page

61).

«durgol swiss steamer» was developed especially for this appli-

ance.

Standard descaling solutions are not suitable as they may con-

tain foam-creating additives or not be effective enough.

Using a different descaler could cause

▪ overfoaming inside the appliance

▪ insufficient descaling of the boiler

▪ damage to the appliance in the worst case.

12 Care and maintenance

Starting the descaling process

The appliance must have cooled down before descaling.

Remove accessories, cookware or other objects from the cooking space. Do not

leave the appliance unattended: during the descaling process, the descaler must

be filled and the water tank must be emptied. The appliance door must be kept

closed during descaling.

When the following message appears in the display «Would you like to descale the appli-

ance now? You must accompany the process.»:

▸ Select «Yes».

▸ The following appears in the display: «The appliance is being prepared for descaling.»

If an acoustic signal is emitted and « Residual heat too high» appears in the dis-

play, the appliance has not cooled down sufficiently and the descaling process

cannot be started.

▸ Allow the appliance to cool down.

▸ As soon as the corresponding message appears in the display: fill the water tank with

0.5 l undiluted descaler, insert the tank and select .

– The descaling process starts.

– The following appears in the display: «Descaling appliance.»

For safety reasons, once started the descaling process cannot be cancelled.

Replacing the rinsing solution

▸ As soon as the corresponding message appears in the display, remove the water

tank, pour the rinsing solution away and fill it with 1l warm water.

▸ Put the water tank back.

– The rinsing phase starts automatically.

– The following appears in the display: «Rinsing appliance.».

▸ Repeat the process as often as is necessary.

As the water is heated up during final rinsing, the appliance door may steam up.

Ending the descaling process

▸ As soon as the corresponding message appears in the display, remove, empty and

dry the water tank.

▸ Wipe up any water in the bottom of the cooking space with a soft cloth.

▸ To confirm the message, select .

– The following appears in the display: «Appliance has been successfully descaled».

▸ To confirm the message, select .
