Operation
Start Cooking
Using nine of the eleven modes available in your steam
oven requires similar steps. Using CHICKEN or
VEGETABLES automatic programs is somewhat different
and is described separately starting on page
13.
Preheating the Oven
Place food in steam oven before preheat unless using
KEEP WARM, SLOW COOK or EUROPEAN CONV
modes. In KEEP WARM, SLOW COOK or EUROPEAN
CONV modes, place food in oven after the oven has been
preheated.
Food needs to be in the oven during preheat for steam
modes because if the door is opened to put food inside
after the preheat cycle the steam will leave the cavity,
lowering the temperature, which may cause the food to be
undercooked.
CAUTION!
Exercise caution when opening the appliance. Standing
to the side, open the door slowly and only slightly to let
hot air and/or steam escape. Keep your face clear of the
opening and make sure there are no children or pets
near the unit. After the hot air and/or steam is released,
proceed with your cooking. Keep doors shut unless
necessary for cooking or cleaning purposes. Do not
leave open doors unattended.
Rack Positions
The oven has four rack levels. The rack levels are
numbered bottom to top as shown in the figure below.

To Operate the Oven by Setting the Mode
First
1. Select the desired cooking mode.
— The display transitions to the mode setting screen
with the mode and the default temperature. The
temperature flashes, indicating that it may be
edited and that the mode has not yet started.
— The display will revert to stand-by state if a
selection is not made within 5 seconds.
2. Press buttons on the numeric keypad to set a
temperature.
— The display transitions to the temperature setting
screen flashing “--x” in the display, where x is the
numeric key pressed by the user.
— If the temperature in the display is outside the
allowable limits for the selected mode and ENTER
is pressed, an error tone will sound and the
allowed temperature range for that mode is shown
below the set temperature.
— Temperature control is not possible with
DEFROST, PROOF, KEEP WARM, and DISH
WARM, which have preselected temperatures.
When one of these modes is selected, the
temperature will appear on the display.
3. Press ENTER.
— If ENTER is not pressed after setting a temperature
other than the default temperature, the oven will
automatically start the cooking mode after 5
seconds at the entered temperature. If no input is
made to the default temperature, the display
screen will transition back to stand-by state after 5
seconds of inactivity.
— Display will indicate that the oven is preheating.
