Setting the correct boiling point for water

The steam oven is set at the factory to the hard (S04) water
hardness setting. It must be adjusted to local water hardness
to ensure problem-free operation and so that descaling can
be carried out at the correct interval. The harder the water,
the more often the appliance will need to be descaled.
^ Check the hardness of your local water supply and adjust
the water hardness as necessary (see "Settings").
Before cooking food for the first time, you must set the boiling
point for water, as this varies according to the altitude of the
location of the appliance. This procedure adjusts the
appliance to the altitude in your area and also flushes out the
waterways.
This process must be carried out to ensure efficient
functioning of your appliance.
^ Run the appliance at 100 °C for 15 minutes. Proceed as
described in "Brief operating instructions".
If you move house, the appliance will need to be re-set for
the new altitude if this differs from the old one by more than
300 m. To do this, descale the appliance (see "Cleaning and
care / Descaling").
