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 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. Before using for the first time Set the water hardness level To 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. Press SETTINGS. 3. Press the left ( or ), select WATER HARDNESS, and press ENTER. 4. Press the right ( or ) 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 If you move or if your water source changes, you will need to reset the water hardness value. Steam oven settings Several oven features can be adjusted by selecting the settings menu on the display screen. Many of these features can be adjusted when the oven is first installed or after a move to a new location. To adjust the oven settings 1. Press SETTINGS. 2. Press the right ( or ) and press ENTER to adjust any of the following settings: - Country code - Temperature units - Weight units - Calibration - Water hardness - Descale - Steam clean - Factory reset 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. 2. Turn the mode knob to STEAM and press ENTER. 3. Press the right ( or ) and set the cooking time for 20 minutes. 4. Once completed, 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. Page. 63
