Empty the water tank after each use.

1. Keep the water tank level while slowly pulling it out of

the appliance to ensure that no remaining water drips

down and out through the vent.

2. Pour out the water.

3. Thoroughly dry the seal of the tank lid and the slot

where the tank resides in the appliance. Prolonged

dampness could lead to a musty odor in the tank.

Automatic calibration of the steam oven to air

pressure at your location:

The temperature at which water boils depends on the air

pressure, which is lower at higher elevations. The steam

oven automatically calibrates to adjust to the pressure

conditions in your area the first time steam is used at

212

°F (100°C). More steam than usual will be produced

during calibration.

After moving, to ensure that the steam oven automatically

adjusts to your new location, reset the range to its factory

settings and re-test water hardness (see “Steam Oven

Settings”, page 57).

Before Using the Oven for the First

Time

Set the Water Hardness Level

1. Determine the hardness of your tap water by using test

strips (not provided) or by asking your water utility

company.

2. With the oven OFF, push any button to bring up two

choices on the display screen, KITCHEN TIMER and

SETTINGS.

3. Using the “+/–” buttons, select SETTINGS and press

ENTER.

4. Scroll through SETTINGS until the arrow (>) points to

WATER HARDNESS. Press ENTER.

5. Using the “+/–” buttons, scroll the number scale, and

press ENTER when the arrow points to the hardness

level for your water. The factory setting is 3.

1 = Softened

2 = Soft

3 = Average

4 = Hard

5 = Very Hard

Unless you use softened water, you will need to descale

your steam oven at regular intervals (see “Descale” in the

“Care and Maintenance” section on page 79).

If you move or if your water source changes, you will need

to reset the water hardness value.

Clean the Accessories

Wash the accessories thoroughly with soapy water and a

cloth before using them.

Clean the Oven Using the STEAM Mode

Before using the steam oven for the first time, heat it once

while it is empty:

1. Fill and slide in the water tank (see instructions under

“Water Tank”, page 52).

2. Turn the Mode Selector Ring to STEAM.

3. Press ENTER.

— The display will show “Set Cook Timer” on the first

line and 0:00 on the second.

4. Using the “+/–” buttons, set the cooking time for 20

minutes (0:20, in HR/MIN format).

— The oven will heat for 20 minutes and then stop.

5. Leave the door cracked open until the oven cools.

This initial cleaning will also calibrate the steam oven to the

air pressure at your location. Calibration produces more

steam than ordinary use.

Steam Oven Settings

Several oven features can be adjusted by selecting the

SETTINGS menu from the initial options on the display

screen. Many of these features should be adjusted when

the oven is first installed or after a move to a new location.

Using the “+/–” buttons, choose SETTINGS and press

ENTER. The following list of settings will display:

Country Code

Water Hardness

Calibration

Temperature Units

Weight Units

Descale

Steam Clean

Factory Reset

Use the “+/–” buttons to scroll through the settings list,

pressing ENTER for the one you wish to adjust.

COUNTRY CODE: Instead of manually changing weight or

temperature units, you can go to COUNTRY CODE and

select either USA or CANADA. Choosing USA defaults the

weight and temperature units to lbs./°F. Choosing CANADA

defaults these settings to kg/°C. The Country Code display

will change to CUSTOM if you change either of the units by

going directly to them in the settings list.
