Installed a Gaggenau BS280 Combi Steam oven with water and drain feature. Calibration: Make sure its a cold oven start process (if it adds water and starts to steam this is good_if no water and stays dry stop cool and start over) I was done in 15 min with calibration. How do you know? while calibrating mode press "i" button it will say Calibrating in process... about 15 min later checked again cleared, temp and 100% humidity in window. You are calibrated. I cooled oven with cooling feature and then dryed it.

He should have called you back but since he didn't, you should go ahead and call them back. I doubt NJ is an issue - they should service appliances all over the country. Products do sometimes have initial problems - you're under warranty - call them back and have them schedule a service call.

Yes. foodie3...thank you SO much for sharing that information. We have an older BS-280 model that we bought, installed and were trying in vain to calibrate. The "cal" notation would just not go away. That is, until we followed your advice. I had previously called Gaggenau here in CA, who did not know that and simply said increasing the temp from 210º to 215ºF should do the trick, which it did not. Interesting that this info is nowhere else to be found online when I searched this issue. Perhaps the newer models have alleviated the translation issue. I did turn off the oven manually after the "cal" disappeared since the oven didn't turn off automatically after 15 minutes.

I'm having a problem with my hot tub heater. It's the exact opposite of what most people have (heater not working)- it is actually working TOO well. Let me explain. About a month ago, my son was complaining that the hot tub was overly hot. When I checked it, it felt pretty hot to me too. So I put the pool thermometer in it. To my surprise, it read 118 degrees! I got another thermometer to double-check the reading, and got 117 degrees. After doing some research, I determined I should probably call a technician to handle this problem. The technician came out, looked things over, and told me it was either the High Limit Switch, or the Thermistor. He pointed out both switches (I already knew where they were from looking at the parts schematic), and explained how they could be changed. He said I could do it myself if I was handy, or I could pay him $150 to come back and take care of this 10 minute job. I opted to do it myself. So I ordered the parts and changed them out. The result? I am having the same problem. When I set the heater temp to 100 degrees, the burner turns on and it heats up the water until it reads 100 degrees, as requested on the display. The problem is, what the heater thinks is 100 degrees is actually around 115. I double-checked this by turning the requested temp down to 85 degrees and running the heater. The result is water that is actually 100 degrees, although I am requesting 85 degrees. The system works as advertised, except for the fact that its temperature calibration is off by 15 degrees. Anyone have any ideas on this one? I've already changed out the thermistor probe, which seems like the most likely culprit in this situation. My next step is probably changing out the control board. I don't want to do that if I don't have to, as it is a $400 part. Thank you in advance for any advice/solutions you can offer.
