Before Using the Appliance
for the First Time
• Appliance must be properly installed by a qualified
technician before use.
• Remove all packing materials from inside and outside
the oven.
• While cool, wipe with a clean, damp cloth and dry.
There may be a slight odor during first uses; this is
normal and will disappear.
• Read and understand all safety precautions and Use
and Care Manual information.
• Execute the following sections prior to operating:

Water tank

The water tank is on the right side of the steam oven. It
holds 1.4 quarts (1.3 L) of water. The water tank is not
dishwasher safe.
Important notes about the water used to fill the tank:
• Moisten the seal in the tank lid with some water before
using it for the first time.
• Use only fresh tap water or, if necessary, plain non-
carbonated purchased water to fill water tank.
CAUTION
Use of inappropriate liquids can damage the
appliance! Do not fill the water tank with distilled water
or any other liquids.
• If your water is very hard (10 grains per gallon or
higher), we recommend using softened water.
• If your tap water is highly chlorinated (>40 mg/L), use
plain non-carbonated purchased water with a low
amount of chlorine.

4. Close tank lid until it snaps.
5. Insert water tank completely (picture C).
6. The tank must be flush with the tank funnel (picture D).
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.

Water Level Warnings

The water tank must have enough water to generate the
steam needed for the cooking mode and time you are
using. As the water is converted to steam, the tank level will
drop during cooking. There are three different water levels
that are monitored by the control:
NONE: Tank Full
— Full tank, any oven mode can be run
— The steam oven can operate at 100% steam for
150 minutes without the need to refill the water
tank.
WATER LEVEL IS LOW: Tank with water
— Tank less than full but not empty.
TANK IS EMPTY: Tank is without water.
— A heating mode cannot be run without adding
sufficient water.
— Refill water tank to run a cooking mode.
