Miele DG4080 - Manual (Page 20)

Before each use
^ When using a perforated cooking
container, push the condensate tray
onto the lowest shelf runner to catch
any drips.
^ Fill the water container.
You do not need to remove the insert.
Only use mains tap water . Never
use distilled or mineral water.
The water level must be between the
two markings (min. 0.75 l and max.
1.2 l). These are located inside and
outside the container. On no account
exceed the upper or maximum level
marker. The amount of water required
will vary depending on what you are
cooking.
The maximum quantity of 1.2 litres of
water is sufficient to run the Cook
Universal 100 °C programme for
approx. 2 hours, providing the door is
not opened. The water level in the water
container is represented by a symbol in
the display.
Using hot water will shorten the
heating-up time.
^ Always use both hands when
carrying the water container, and
push it into the appliance until it
connects. Take care not to let any
water spill out.
Pre-heat
The steam oven can be set so that it
pre-heats to approx. 40°C. To use this
function, you will need to alter the
default setting in the Settings menu
(see "Settings - Pre-heat").
When the pre-heat function has been
activated, the main menu will appear
after the appliance is switched on. If no
steam oven function is selected within a
few seconds, the pre-heat process will
begin.
Selecting a steam oven
function
^ Place the food in the oven.
^ Switch the appliance on if you have
not preheated it.
The main menu will appear.
^ Select the function you want (e.g.
Cook vegetables).
