Description of functions Control panel The water container and condensate container are located behind the control panel. The control panel is opened and closed using the "Lift Panel" sensor. The panel is equipped with a device which will automatically stop it moving if it meets an obstruction while opening or closing. Do not touch the door handle while the panel is opening or closing. Water container The maximum water level is 3 pints (1.4 liters), the minimum 1 quart (1 liter). These levels are indicated on the container. Do not exceed the maximum level. The amount of water depends on the type of food and the duration of cooking. You may need to refill the water container during the cooking procedure. Opening the door will increase the amount used. Fill the water container to the maximum level before each use. Condensate container Condensate that collects in the appliance from cooking is pumped into the condensate container. The container has a maximum capacity of 3 pints (1.4 liters). Grease filter Insert the grease filter in the back wall for all roasting programs. It should be removed when using steam programs. It must also be removed when baking, as otherwise results can be uneven (exception: deep fresh fruit pies, pizza with extra toppings). Roast probe The roast probe measures the core temperature in the food, enabling the temperature during the cooking process to be monitored simply and accurately. Temperature / Core temperature Some modes offer a recommended temperature. The recommended temperature can be changed for a single cooking program or cooking step, or permanently within a specific area (see "Settings - Recommended temperatures"). It is also possible to change the core temperature for a single cooking program or cooking step within the specified area. 24
