Making Preserves

For making preserves, use the Interval Steam oven function.

Preserving Jars
• For preserving, use only commercially available preserve jars of the

same size.

3

Jars with twist-off or bayonet type lids and metal tins are not suitable.

Oven Levels

Tips on Preserving
• Use the all-purpose tray for preserving. There is enough room on this

for up to six 1-litre preserving jars.

• The preserving jars should all be filled to the same level and clamped

shut.

• Place the preserving jars on the all-purpose tray in such a way that

they are not touching each other.
