Where to Start?

​

To use ConnectedCooking to link your units, they need to be connected to a network. All SelfCookingCenter® units manufactured 03/2017 or later come equipped with Ethernet ports, so that they can easily be added to your network using a LAN cable or a wireless module.

Registering your units on ConnectedCooking is equally easy – just use your PC, smartphone, or tablet. The units will connect automatically, and then you’ll be ready to go.

To use ConnectedCooking with units manufactured before 03/2017, just have them retrofitted with Ethernet interfaces. In principle, all SelfCookingCenter® and CombiMaster® Plus units are compatible with the ConnectedCooking world
