Description of functions Preheating phase During the preheating phase the display will show the temperature in the cooking compartment as it rises and Preheating in all programs except for MasterChef, Menu Cooking, and Maintenance. During steam cooking, the duration of the preheating phase will depend on the quantity and the temperature of the food. In general this phase will last for approx. 5 minutes. The duration will be longer if you are preparing refrigerated or frozen food. Cooking phase The cooking phase begins when the set temperature is reached. During the cooking phase, the time left will be shown on the display. Oven interior lighting The oven light has been set at the factory to go out when cooking starts. If you want it to stay on all the time the oven is on you will need to alter the default setting (see "Settings - Lighting"). If the door is left open at the end of a cooking program, the oven lighting will turn off automatically after 5 minutes. The oven lighting gives off heat. If you are operating the combi steam oven at a temperature below 125°F (50°C), the oven compartment lighting switches off automatically. If the "Light" button on the control panel is pressed, the oven compartment lighting will come on for 15 seconds. Steam reduction If cooking is performed in a certain temperature range during steam cooking and combination cooking, the steam reduction function switches on automatically at the end of the cooking program. This reduces the amount of steam which escapes from the appliance when the door is opened at the end of the cooking duration. Steam Reduction will appear in the display in addition to Program Finished. This function can be switched off if you wish (see "Settings - Steam reduction"). 30
