vegetables and fruit to prepare them for
freezing.
Proceed as follows:
^
Put the prepared vegetables/fruit
(cleaned, washed, chopped etc.) into
a perforated cooking container.
^
Select the COOK VEG function and
confirm the recommended
temperature of 100 °C.
^
Set a time of 1 minute and confirm
your selection.
^
Once blanched, plunge the
vegetables/fruit into ice cold water to
ensure rapid cooling and then drain
them throroughly.
The vegetables/fruit can now be frozen.
Disinfecting baby bottles
The steam oven can be used to
disinfect baby bottles and other
containers. Check beforehand that all
parts, teats etc., are declared by the
manufacturer to be heat-resistant to
100 °C.
Proceed as follows:
^
Place the condensate tray on the first
runner level and place the rack
above it.
^
Dismantle, clean and thoroughly
rinse the bottles and space the
individual parts out on the rack,
ensuring that they do not touch one
another. This allows the hot steam to
reach them from all sides.
^
Select the COOK UNIVERSAL
function and confirm the
recommended temperature of
100 °C.
^
Set a time of 15 minutes and confirm
your selection.
^
Dry thoroughly using a fresh, clean
tea towel afterwards. All parts of the
bottles must be completely dry
before they are reassembled to keep
them germ free.
