Preventing material damageen

2 Preventing material damage
2.1General
ATTENTION! A build-up of heat may damage the appliance. Do not place anything directly on the cooking com-
partment floor. Do not line the cooking compartment floor with alu-
minium foil. Always place cookware in a perforated cooking con-
tainer or on a wire rack. Chlorinated tap water (>40 mg/l) may damage the appliance. Use low-chloride non-carbonated mineral water. You can obtain information about your tap water
from your water supplier. Chloride and acids may damage the stainless steel surface. Remove any residues of salt, hot sauces, e.g.
ketchup or mustard, salted food, e.g. salted roasts, or other foods containing chloride or acid immediately. Aluminium foil can cause permanent discolouration on the door pane. Ensure that the aluminium foil does not come into contact with the door pane. Fruit juice can cause permanent stains in the cooking compartment. Always remove fruit juice immediately. Wipe with a damp cloth, followed by a dry cloth. The prolonged presence of moisture in the cooking compartment leads to corrosion. Do not keep moist food in the cooking compartment for a long time with the door closed. Do not store food in the cooking compartment. Rusting material may lead to corrosion in the cooking compartment. Only use original accessories in the cooking compartment. Do not use any enamelled baking trays or grill trays. Never use serving plates or cutlery that may rust. Small parts that are not original may damage the appliance. Only use original small parts, e.g. knurled nuts. If necessary, order small parts from our spare parts service. Heat can damage stainless steel cooking containers. Only heat stainless steel cooking containers up to 230 °C. Do not use stainless steel cooking containers in the oven. Leaving the appliance to cool down with the door open will damage the front of neighbouring kitchen units over time. Always allow the cooking compartment to cool down with the door closed after cooking at high temperatures. Take care not to trap anything in the appliance door. Only leave the cooking compartment to dry with the door open if a lot of moisture was produced during operation.

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.
2.2Steam
ATTENTION! Dripping liquids may damage the cooking compartment. To catch any dripping liquids, when steaming using
a perforated cooking container, always insert the unperforated cooking container underneath. Silicone bakeware is not suitable for combined operation 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. Hot water in the water tank may damage the steam system. Only fill the water tank with cold water. If descaling solution comes into contact with the control panel or other delicate surfaces, it will damage them. Remove descaling solution immediately with water.
2.3Core temperature probe
WARNING Risk of electric shock! An incorrect core temperature probe may damage the insulation. Only use the core temperature probe that is suitable
for this appliance. ATTENTION! Temperatures above 250 °C damage the core temperature probe. Only use the core temperature probe in your appli-
ance at a maximum temperature of 230 °C. You may damage the cable of the core temperature probe with the appliance door. Do not trap the cable of the core temperature probe
in the appliance door. The heat of the grill heating element may damage the core temperature probe. Ensure that the distance between the grill heating
element and the core temperature probe and the cable of the core temperature probe is a few centimetres. In doing so, ensure that the meat can expand during the cooking process. Moisture may damage the core temperature probe. Do not clean the core temperature probe in the dishwasher.

enEnvironmental protection and saving energy

2.4Cleaning
ATTENTION! Limescale may damage the appliance. Descale the appliance regularly. Using the wrong descaler may damage the appliance. Only use the specified descaling tablets. Improper care of the appliance can lead to corrosion in the cooking compartment. Follow the care and cleaning instructions for the ap-
pliance. “Cleaning and servicing”, Page 27 Clean the cooking compartment each time you use it as soon as the appliance has cooled down. After cleaning the cooking compartment, use the drying programme Page 29 to dry it.

The descaling tablet may damage the cooking compartment. Use the descaling tablet for the descaling pro-
gramme only. Place the descaling tablet into the water tank. Never place the descaling tablet in the cooking
compartment or heat it up in the cooking compartment. Heat damages the water tank. Do not dry the water tank in the hot cooking compartment.

Environmental protection and saving energy

3.1Disposing of packaging
The packaging materials are environmentally compatible and can be recycled. Sort the individual components by type and dispose
of them separately.

Allow frozen food to defrost before cooking. ¡ This saves the energy that would otherwise be re-
quired to defrost it.

3.2Saving energy
If you follow these instructions, your appliance will use less power. When steaming, you can cook on several levels at the same time. ¡ With steam, various dishes can be prepared at the
same time without the different flavours mixing. When preparing dishes with different cooking times, those with the longest cooking time should be placed in the oven first. When cooking multiple dishes, do so in succession or in parallel. ¡ The cooking compartment is heated after cooking the first dish. This reduces the cooking time for the following dishes. If the cooking time is relatively long, you can switch the appliance off 10 minutes before the cooking time ends. ¡ There will be enough residual heat to finish cooking the dish. 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 operation. ¡ This maintains the temperature in the cooking compartment and eliminates the need for the appliance to reheat. Remove any accessories that are not being used from the cooking compartment. ¡ Accessories that are not being used do not need to be heated.

Outside of the measurable range, the display shows “<15 °C” or “-°C” for the current core temperature. If you leave food in the cooking compartment for some time after cooking, the core temperature will continue to rise somewhat due to the residual heat in the cooking compartment. If you set programmes with the core temperature probe and the cooking timer at the same time, the appliance switches off whichever programme reaches the entered value first.

13.2Core temperature guideline values
The following overview provides you with guideline values for the core temperature. The guideline values depend on the quality and composition of the food. Only use fresh food that has not been frozen. For hygiene reasons, ensure that critical foods such as fish and game reach a core temperature of at least 62 °C to 70 °C and poultry and minced meat 80 °C to 85 °C.

WARNING Risk of burns! The appliance and its parts that can be touched become hot during use. Caution should be exercised here in order to avoid
touching heating elements. Young children under 8 years of age must be kept
away from the appliance.
WARNING Risk of injury! Scratched glass in the appliance door may develop into a crack. Do not use any harsh or abrasive cleaners or sharp
metal scrapers to clean the glass on the appliance door, as they may scratch the surface.

ATTENTION! Unsuitable cleaning agents damage the surfaces of the appliance. Do not use harsh or abrasive cleaning products. Do not use cleaning products with a high alcohol
content. Do not use hard scouring pads or cleaning
sponges. Do not use any special cleaners for cleaning the ap-
pliance while it is hot. Salt contained in new sponge cloths may damage surfaces. Wash new sponge cloths thoroughly before use. Using oven cleaner in a hot cooking compartment damages the stainless steel surfaces. Never use oven cleaner in the cooking compartment

18 Disposal
18.1Disposing of old appliance
Valuable raw materials can be reused by recycling. 1. Unplug the appliance from the mains. 2. Cut through the power cord. 3. Dispose of the appliance in an environmentally
friendly manner. Information about current disposal methods are available from your specialist dealer or local authority.
19 How it works
Here, you can find the ideal settings for various types of food as well as the best accessories and cookware. We have perfectly tailored these recommendations to your appliance.
19.1General cooking tips
Take note of the following information when cooking all types of food. ¡ The cooking times specified are intended as a
guide. The actual cooking time depends on the quality and temperature of the food before cooking, as well as its weight and thickness. ¡ The values given refer to average quantities for 4 people. If you want to prepare a larger amount, expect a longer cooking time. ¡ Use the cookware specified. If you use other cookware, the cooking time may be longer or shorter.
34

8. Fit the tank lid.
17.4Demo mode
If the display shows , demo mode is activated. The appliance does not heat up. Deactivate demo mode 1. To briefly disconnect the appliance from the mains,
switch off the household fuse or the circuit breaker in the fuse box. 2. Deactivate demo mode within 3 minutes in the basic settings Page 25.
This appliance is labelled in accordance with European Directive 2012/19/EU concerning used electrical and electronic appliances (waste electrical and electronic equipment – WEEE). The guideline determines the framework for the return and recycling of used appliances as applicable throughout the EU.
¡ If you have not made a particular dish before, start with the shortest specified time. If required, you can continue to cook the food.
¡ Open the cooking compartment door on the preheated oven for a short time only and quickly place your food inside the appliance.
¡ If you are using only one cooking container, slide the cooking container in at the second level from the bottom.
¡ When steaming, defrosting, dough proving and reheating, you can use up to 3 shelf levels at a time (shelf levels 1, 2 and 3). This will not cause the flavour to transfer. You can therefore cook fish, vegetables and desserts at the same time. The specified cooking times may need to be extended for large quantities of food.
¡ If you are only baking on one level, use level 2. If you are baking on two levels at the same time, use levels 1 and 3.

How it worksen

¡ Ensure that the food does not lie against the cooking compartment, the grease filter or the back panel.
¡ The appliance door must shut properly. Keep the seal surfaces clean at all times.
¡ To ensure optimal steam circulation, do not position the racks and containers too closely.
¡ When cooking very cold foods and when cooking at high temperatures, the cooking container may deform. This deformation has no effect on the function. When the cooking container cools down again, it returns to its original shape.
¡ If the appliance is above 100 °C, allow the appliance to cool down before steaming. Otherwise, the high temperature causes the food to dry out.
¡ When steaming at temperatures up to 100 °C, no preheating is necessary. Place the food in the cold cooking compartment and then switch on the appliance.

19.2Vegetables
Take note of the recommended settings for vegetables. ¡ Vegetables are prepared better in steam than in
boiling water: The taste, colour, and consistency are retained better. Virtually none of the water-soluble vitamins and nutrients are washed out. ¡ All of the information refers to 1 kg washed vegetables. ¡ To steam vegetables, use the perforated cooking container. Slide the perforated cooking container in at the second level from the bottom. Slide the unperforated cooking insert into the level below this. You can use the vegetable broth that is collected here as the basis for a sauce or a vegetable stock. ¡ Blanch for 8 to 10 minutes in the preheated appliance. If you are not serving the vegetables or fruit immediately, chill them in ice water to prevent continued cooking due to residual heat.

19.3Fish
Take note of the recommended settings for fish. ¡ Steaming is a cooking method that does not use
any fat and does not allow the fish to dry out. ¡ For food hygiene reasons, ensure that fish has a
core temperature of at least 62 to 65 °C after cooking. This is also the ideal cooking temperature. ¡ To ensure that the natural flavour is retained and that less water is removed from the fish, do not season the fish with salt until after cooking.

¡ When using the perforated cooking container: You can grease the container if the fish sticks too much.
¡ Slide the unperforated cooking insert into the first level from the bottom to avoid getting fish stock on the cooking compartment surfaces.
¡ For fillets with skin: Place the fish on the rack or tray with the skin side up ­ this helps to retain its texture and flavour.

19.4Fish ­ low-temperature steaming
Use low-temperature steaming to cook fish. ¡ If you steam the fish at between 70 and 90 °C, it is
less likely to be overcooked or to fall apart. Steaming at these temperatures is particular advantageous for delicate fish. ¡ The values given for the different types of fish refer to fillets.

¡ Slide the unperforated cooking insert into the first level from the bottom to avoid getting fish stock on the cooking compartment surfaces.
¡ Serve on a pre-warmed dish. ¡ With low-temperature steaming, no preheating is ne-
cessary. Place the food in the cold oven and then switch on the appliance.

19.5Meat ­ cooking at higher temperatures
Note the recommended settings for cooking at higher temperatures. ¡ Combining steam and hot air is the best way to
cook many types of fish. In this operating mode, the cooking compartment is hermetically sealed and the moisture counteracts the drying effects of the hot air, which is used in conventional cooking. The optimal conditions can be achieved for any type of food thanks to the variable humidity control system. ¡ The cooking times listed are intended as a guide only and depend heavily on the temperature of the meat at the start of cooking and on how long the meat was seared for. Use the core temperature probe so that you can monitor the core temperature more easily. Information and instructions, as well as optimal target temperatures, can be found in the section entitled Core temperature probe Page 20.

¡ Take the meat out of the refrigerator 1 hour before you begin preparing it.
¡ When using the perforated cooking container or the wire rack, slide an unperforated cooking container beneath it. To prevent the food from burning on, pour a little water into the unperforated cooking container. You can also add vegetables, wine, spices and herbs to the unperforated cooking container to make a tasty base for a sauce.
¡ If you want the meat to be rare or medium rare, open the door when the temperature reaches 5 °C below the required core temperature and wait until the target temperature is reached. If you open the door, you prevent the meat from being overcooked and treat the meat to the necessary time to rest.
¡ Time to rest: Allow the meat to rest for 5 minutes on a wire rack after cooking. This gives the meat a chance to “relax”. The circulation of the meat juice slows and, when the meat is cut, less juice is lost.

19.6Fish and poultry ­ low-temperature cooking
Take note of the recommended settings for meat and poultry for low-temperature steaming. ¡ With low-temperature cooking, the dishes are
cooked at temperatures between 60 and 80 °C and for a cooking time from a few minutes up to several hours until cooked through. This cooking method is mainly used for meat dishes and fish dishes. The

sensory properties of the food, e.g. the tenderness and succulence, are retained with this cooking method. Heating it up gently gives the meat an even, delicate pink colour throughout (other than a very thin edge) and makes it extraordinarily succulent. No turning or basting is required. ¡ The cooking times listed are intended as a guide only and depend heavily on the temperature of the meat at the start of cooking and on how long the meat was seared for. Use the core temperature

39

enHow it works

probe so that you can monitor the core temperature more easily. Information and instructions, as well as optimal target temperatures, can be found in the section entitled Core temperature probe Page 20. ¡ Take the meat out of the refrigerator 1 hour before you begin preparing it. ¡ For food hygiene reasons, sear the meat briefly on all sides at a high temperature in the frying pan before cooking it. This gives the meat a crust, which prevents the meat juices from escaping and produces the kind of flavour characteristic of a roast. ¡ Season with care: Because the meat develops as it cooks slowly, all of the flavours become more intense. ¡ When game and horse meat is cooked at low temperatures, its flavour becomes stronger than when prepared the conventional way.

¡ Use the “Low-temperature cooking” mode . In this mode, any moisture escaping from the food remains in the cooking compartment and prevents the food from drying out.
¡ With this operating mode, no preheating is necessary.
¡ Note that the core temperature of the food cannot be higher than the temperature inside the cooking compartment. As a rule of thumb, select an interior temperature that is 10 to 15 °C higher than the required core temperature.
¡ If your guests arrive late, towards the end of the cooking time, you can reduce the temperature to 60 °C to extend the cooking time. If you want to pause cooking, the temperature in the cooking compartment must be no higher than the required core temperature. Large items can remain in the cooking compartment for 1­1.5 hours, and small items can remain in there for 30­45 minutes.
¡ Serve on a pre-warmed dish.

Comments After cooking, you can crisp up the skin side quickly in the frying pan. Or: Grill + air recirculation 230 °C for 5 minutes.
Turn in garlic and herbs before cooking in oil

19.7Poultry
Take note of the recommended settings for poultry. ¡ The moisture present when the appliance is operat-
ing in combination mode prevents food from drying out, which is important for poultry in particular. At the same time, the high temperatures make the surface brown and crispy. The hot steam is able to transfer twice as much heat as conventional hot air, and reaches all parts of the food. The hot steam cooks a chicken, until browned and crispy all round, while the breast meat remains tender and succulent.

¡ The cooking times listed are intended as a guide only and depend heavily on the temperature of the meat at the start of cooking. Use the core temperature probe so that you can monitor the core temperature more easily. Insert the core temperature probe in the chicken breast rather than in the middle or in a cavity. Further information and instructions, as well as optimal target temperatures, can be found in the section entitled Core temperature probe Page 20.
¡ To make the skin crispier, season poultry mainly with spices and herbs, and use little or no oil.

19.8Sous-vide cooking
When sous-vide cooking, you cook the food under a vacuum at low temperatures between 50 and 95 °C and at 100% steam.
WARNING Risk of harm to health! Due to the low sous-vide cooking cooking temperatures, there is a risk to health if you do not follow the instructions for use and hygiene instructions below. Use only fresh, good-quality food. Wash and disinfect your hands. Use disposable
gloves or grill tongs. Take extra care when preparing critical food, such
as poultry, eggs and fish. Always thoroughly rinse and/or peel fruit and veget-
ables where necessary. Always keep work surfaces and chopping boards
clean. Use different chopping boards for different types of food. Maintain the cold chain. Only interrupt the cold chain briefly to prepare the food. Store vacuumsealed food back in the refrigerator until it is ready to be cooked.

The food is suitable for immediate consumption only. Once the food is cooked, consume it immediately. Do not store it after cooking. Do not store the food in the refrigerator either. The food is not suitable for reheating.
¡ With this operating mode, no preheating is necessary.
¡ Sous-vide cooking is a gentle, low-fat method of cooking meat, fish, vegetables and desserts. A vacuum-sealing machine uses heat to hermetically seal the food in a special heat-resistant cooking bag.
¡ The protective envelope retains the nutrients and flavours. The low temperatures and the direct heat transfer help you to achieve precisely controlled cooking in order to achieve the desired cooking results. It is almost impossible to overcook the food.
¡ Use the portion sizes listed in the cooking table. For larger quantities and items, adjust the cooking time accordingly. The portions specified for fish, meat and poultry correspond to a single serving. The portions specified for vegetables and desserts correspond to servings for 4 people.

41

enHow it works

¡ You can cook on up to two levels. Slide the cooking containers in at levels 1 and 3 to achieve the best cooking results. If you are cooking on just one level, use level 2.
¡ When using the sous-vide cooking method, only use heat-resistant vacuum- sealing bags designed for this purpose. Do not cook the food in the vacuumsealing bag in which you bought the food, e.g. portioned fish. These bags are not suitable for sousvide cooking.
¡ To ensure an even transfer of heat and a perfect cooking result, use a chamber vacuum-sealing machine that can create a 99% vacuum when vacuumsealing food.
Vacuum-sealing When vacuuming, heat-seal the food in a special plastic bag so that it is airtight. Note the following points when vacuum-sealing: ¡ There is no/hardly any air in the vacuum-sealing
bag. ¡ The heat-sealed seam is perfectly sealed. ¡ The vacuum-sealing bag has no holes in it. Do not
use a core temperature probe. ¡ Pieces of meat or fish that have been vacuum-
sealed together are not pressed directly against one another. ¡ You have vacuum-sealed vegetables and desserts as flat as possible. Before cooking the food, check whether the vacuum in the bag is intact. If in doubt, place the food into a new bag and vacuumseal it again. Vacuum-seal food no more than one day before the cooking process. This is the only way to prevent the escape of gases from the food (e.g. from vegetables) which inhibit the transfer of heat, or to prevent the texture of the food from changing, and thus altering how it cooks, as a result of the vacuum pressure.
Quality of the food 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 guarantee a consistent cooking result that delivers impeccable flavour.
Cooking Sous-vide cooking prevents flavours from escaping, intensifying the food’s natural flavour. Note that the usual quantities of seasoning and condiments, such as

herbs, spices and garlic, will have a much greater effect on the flavour. Start off by halving the quantities you usually use. If the ingredients are of high quality, it is often sufficient to enclose them in the bag with just a small knob of butter and a little salt and pepper. Generally, the fact that the food’s natural flavours intensify during cooking is sufficient on its own to produce a flavourful cooking result. Do not place the vacuum-sealed food items on top of one another or too close together in the cooking containers. In order to ensure even heat distribution, make sure that you do not touch the food. If you have more than one vacuum-sealing bag, cook on two levels. Remove the vacuum-sealing bags with care after cooking, as hot water accumulates on the bags. Place the unperforated cooking container into the cooking compartment at the level below the perforated cooking container containing the hot food. Dry the outside of the bag, place it into a clean, unperforated cooking container and cut it open with scissors. Place all of the food, along with its juices, into the cooking container. The food can be finished off as follows once the sousvide cooking stage is complete: ¡ Vegetables: Flash fry in a frying pan or on the tep-
pan yaki to give them the flavours you would expect from frying. In doing so, you can effortlessly season the vegetables or mix them with other ingredients without the vegetables cooling down. ¡ Fish: Season and coat with hot butter. Since many types of fish fall apart easily after cooking using the sous-vide method, if you want to flash fry fish, this should be done before the sous- vide cooking stage. Fry the food for longer if has not been sufficiently well cooked during the sous-vide cooking stage. ¡ Meat: Flash fry at a very high temperature for a few seconds only on each side. This gives the meat a nice crust and the flavours you would expect from frying, without overcooking it. You can achieve a particularly good result using a teppan yaki or under the grill. Note: Dab the meat with a tea towel before placing it into hot oil, in order to avoid fat spitting out of the pan. Serve the food on pre-heated plates and, if possible, with a hot sauce or butter as sous-vide cooking takes place at relatively low temperatures.

19.9Grilling
Note the recommended settings for grilling. A total of three grilling functions mean that you can brown or grill (full surface grill and air recirculation) your food to your requirements ­ or do both at the same time in a single step (full surface grill level 1 + humidity and full surface grill, setting 2 + humidity). ¡ | Browning with full surface grill + air recircula-
tion at a temperature of 230 °C: Also known as cooking au gratin. The last step in a cooking process. A brown crust forms on the surface of the food. Only takes a few minutes. The ingredients are already pre-cooked. ¡ | Grilling with full surface grill + air recirculation at a temperature of 180-200 °C: Complete cooking process whereby the surface is toasted. The cooking process is longer than when cooking au gratin. The ingredients must not be pre-cooked.

¡ – | Browning + grilling with full surface grill level 1 + humidity and full surface grill level 2 + humidity: With these two functions, food is simultaneously cooked and browned as the two steps are carried out simultaneously with one type of heating. The steam cooks the food, e.g. a potato gratin, and the second step browns it.
¡ Do not grill food with the oven door open. ¡ With the full surface grill and air recirculation func-
tion, a pre-heating time of 5 minutes is sufficient. You do not need to wait until the appliance reaches the temperature. With the full surface grill and air recircul
