36 / 112
Steam mode
To get the most out of your appliance, check daily the types of food which can be cooked
together using “steam” .
Remember that fish, meat, vegetables, side dishes and fruit can be cooked together (as long as
they are all being prepared by the same method).
Potatoes are cooked in perforated GN containers, the perforations let the steam circulate and
give faster, more intensive cooking.
Vegetable stock can be collected by inserting a container on the bottom rack.
It is better to use two shallower GN containers rather than one high one => this reduces bulk
and avoids heavy layers of food.
Dumplings should be placed in a shallow solid GN container, not too close together.
Rice and cereals are the only foods to which you should add water: 1 part grain, 1.5 to 2 parts
water.
Tomatoes are very easy to skin: “steam” for approx. 1 min, then plunge into cold water.
Approximate cooking cabinet temperatures
Soup garnishes: 75 to 90 ℃
Fish, shellfish and crustaceans: 65 to 90 ℃
Meat and sausages: 72 to 75 ℃
Light meat: 75 to 85 ℃
Dark meat: 80 to 90 ℃
Poultry: 80 °C
Desserts: 65 to 90 ℃
Seasoning
Season with care. Low cooking temperatures intensify the characteristic taste of seasonings.
When vacuum cooking be sure to add the exact amount of fumet, essence or reduction!
Preserving fruit/vegetables
Cover the food with hot or cold liquid, depending on the firmness of the raw product and the
type of preserve you want. The diameter of the preserving jars used should not exceed 100
mm. The cooking temperature will depend on the type of product (ripeness, size of pieces).
Approximate temperature: 74 to 99 °C.
Please note: The jars must not be closed.
37 / 112
Dry heat mode
In “dry heat” cooking mode, powerful heating elements heat up the dry air. You can set
the cooking cabinet temperature from 30 °C to 300 °C . You can limit the cooking cabinet
humidity if necessary.

Building services - steam generator descaling
The steam generator must be descaled manually on a regular basis.
We recommend the following descaling intervals
based on 8 hours’ steaming per day:
- up to 18 °dH (to 3.2 mmol/litres) at least 1x annually
- up to 24 °dH (to 4.3 mmol/litres) at least 2x annually
- over 24 °dH (to 4.3 mmol/litres) at least 3x annually
These recommended descaling intervals may vary from the approximate values given above,
depending on the composition of the water (e.g. minerals).
You need:
Foot pump for descaling - Item no.: 6004.0203
Descaler, 10 litre canister – article no.: 6006.0110
Heavier limescale deposits in the steam generator can only be removed by the Service
Technician.
If the steam generator has a heavier build up of limescale, the "Calc Infor" function will be
displayed at the end of the CleanJet cleaning programme.

Cleaning the LED covers (XS units only, 6 2/3 GN)
The LED lighting cover is well protected against dirt behind the inside and middle glass
pane. Nevertheless, this area can become dirty. Open the inside and middle glass pane
to reach the LED cover. The covers can now be cleaned. Gently wipe the surface of the
lighting units with a cloth, sponge or kitchen paper.
Observe the following instructions when cleaning the LED cover:
The transparent part of the LED cover is a high-quality component designed to ensure
optimum light distribution and brightness in the appliance.
For this reason, do not use scrubbing sponges or scouring agents, or aggressive cleaning
agents such as: strong acids and alkali, undiluted alcohols, acetone, methanol, oven
cleaner, petrol, benzene, toluene or xylene.
Only use gentle, diluted cleaning agents such as alcohol-based cleaners such as glass
cleaner (Ethanol-based) or household washing-up liquid.
Never apply the cleaning agent to hot surfaces; always let the door cool down first.
Leave the cleaning agent to dissolve before wiping it off with water. Never heat up the
appliance when applying cleaning agent.

Rinse the drip tray and drain channel (tabletop units only):
Where there is extensive use of the grilling applications or where high-fat or highly
gelatinous foods are prepared, the drain channel of the drip tray must be cleaned daily.
To do this, only use the cleaning brush supplied by the appliance manufacturer (article no.:
60.75.779) to prevent damage to the drain system.
Carefully insert the cleaning brush up to the marker in the drain opening (model 61/101: up
to the marker flag; model 62/102: up to the plastic handle) and remove blockages.
Avoid sudden movements to prevent damage. Then rinse the drain channel with around
1-2 litres of warm water. Do not use the spray jet of the hand shower to do this.
