Frozen
The heating-up phase for frozen food is
longer than for fresh food. The greater
the quantity of frozen food, the longer
the heating-up phase.
Temperature
During steam cooking, the temperature
does not exceed 100 °C. Almost all
foods can be cooked at this
temperature. 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.
Duration
During steam cooking, the cooking
duration does not begin until the set
temperature is reached.
In general, the cooking durations for
cooking with steam are the same as for
cooking food in a saucepan. More
information about any factors which
may affect the cooking duration is given
in the relevant sections.
The quantity of food does not affect the
cooking duration. 1 kg of potatoes will
take the same time to cook as 500 g of
potatoes.
Cooking with liquid
When cooking with liquid, only fill the
cooking container ²/₃ full to prevent the
liquid spilling when the cooking
container is removed from the oven.
Your own recipes – steam
cooking
Food which is cooked in a pot or a pan
can also be cooked in the steam
combination oven. The cooking
durations in the steam combination
oven will be the same. Please note that
food will not be brown or crisp when
cooking with steam.
Universal tray and combi rack
Use the universal tray with the combi
rack placed on top of it, e.g. for roasting
and grilling. During roasting, you can use
the meat juices collected in the tray to
make a gravy or sauce.
If you are using the universal tray with
the combi rack on top, insert the
universal tray between the rails of a
shelf level and the combi rack will
automatically sit on top. When removing
them from the oven, pull both out
together.
Non-tip safety notches
The combi rack and universal tray have
non-tip safety notches which prevent
them being pulled right out when they
only need to be partially pulled out. The
tray and rack can then only be taken out
of the oven by raising them upwards
and then pulling them out.
