and quantity of the
ingredients used.
1.1 Advice for special heating
functions of the oven
Keep Warm
Use this function if you want to keep food
warm.
The temperature regulates itself
automatically to 80 °C.
Plate Warming
For warming plates and dishes.
Distribute plates and dishes evenly on the
wire shelf. Move stacks around after half
of the warming time (swap top and
bottom).
The automatic temperature is 70 °C.
Recommended shelf position: 3.
Dough Proving
You can use this automatic function with
any recipe for yeast dough you like. It
gives you a good atmosphere for rising.
Put the dough into a dish that is big
enough for rising. It is not necessary to
cover it. Insert a wire shelf on the first shelf
position and put the dish in. Close the
door and set the function: Dough Proving.
Set the necessary time.
Defrost
Remove the food packaging and put the
food on a plate. Do not cover the food
with a bowl or a plate, as this can extend
the defrost time. Use the first shelf position
from the bottom.
1.2 SousVide Cooking
This function uses lower cooking
temperatures than normal cooking.
Handle the food with special care for
better food quality.
Recommendations regarding food
safety:
• Use high quality raw materials.
• Always use the raw material that is as
fresh as possible.
• Always keep raw materials in correct
conditions before you cook them.
• Always clean the food before you cook
it.
• For good and safe results, always look
at the values in the cooking tables.
Check the cooking time, temperature
and dimension of the food.
• Food should not be kept at a
temperature below 60 °C for a longer
time to avoid safety problems.
• Use low temperatures only for food
that could be eaten raw and only for a
short time.
• Sous-vide dishes have the best taste
immediately after cooking. If you do not
eat the food immediately after the
cooking, quickly decrease its
temperature. To do that, put the food
in an ice bath and put it in the fridge.
You can keep the food in the fridge for
2 – 3 days.
• Do not use Sous-vide cooking function
for reheating food leftovers.
• Prevent contact between raw food and
cooked food while you prepare and
cook the food.
• Do not use the same tools for different
things without washing them carefully.
• For recipes with raw eggs, prevent egg
whites or yolks from contact with the
external part of the egg shells.
Hints and tips regarding food vacuum
packing:
• Necessary equipment for Sous-vide
cooking function are a vacuum sealer
and vacuum bags.
• Recommended vacuum sealer type:
chamber vacuum sealer. Only this type
of vacuum sealer can vacuum pack
liquids.
