There are three knobs on the oven. The leftmost knob is the steam knob. The knob in the middle is the power knob. This controls the lights and the heaters. The knob on the right is the temperature knob. This is used to set your desired baking temperature and is used to access the menu.
Power Knob
To turn on the oven lights, rotate the power knob 1 click to the right (clockwise). To turn the oven on to bake mode, rotate the knob an additional click. The heaters will start heating at this point.
Temperature Knob
Use this knob to set your desired baking temperature. Rotate the knob to select your desired baking temperature.
To access the menu, press and hold the C/F knob. Rotate the knob to scroll through the menu and press the knob in to select a desired page.
Steam Knob
Rotate the knob to select the desired amount of seconds worth of steam you'd like to generate (we recommend 3 - 5 seconds). Press the knob in to activate the steam. The display will countdown the seconds and then reset so it is ready to use with just a click of the knob next time.
We recommend ‘pre-steaming’ for 1 - 2 seconds max to prime the system with water. This should be done before loading the oven with dough. After loading the oven with your dough and shutting the door, we recommend steaming for 3 to 5 seconds. This will release a significant amount of water (0.3 oz/s). Please be aware that steaming multiple times during a bake could result in the oven leaking water through the door.
Steam Release Valve
The steam release valve is closed whenever the handle is rotated clockwise away from you (facing upward). When closed, steam will remain inside the oven.
To release steam, pull the steam release valve counterclockwise towards you (facing forward). This will allow steam to be released from the oven.
NOTE: Please verify that there is enough water in the reservoir before each steam generation.
