摘要： A steam oven comprises a cooking chamber (3), a steam generation device (5) and a monitoring system (6); wherein the steam generation device (5) is configured to generate steam to be fed into the cooking chamber (3) and comprises a boiler (8) and at least one auxiliary tank (10), which is in communication with the boiler (8) to feed, in use, water to the boiler (8); the monitoring system (6) being configured to monitor the level of limescale in the steam generation device (5) and comprising a temperature sensor (22) coupled to the boiler (8) and a monitoring device (24) configured to store at least one temperature value (Tempmax) detected by the temperature sensor (22) each time the steam function of the oven (1) is activated, to compare the at least one stored temperature value with a limescale threshold value (TCal) and to signal the need for descaling when the at least one stored temperature value (Tempmax) detected by the temperature sensor (22) is greater than or equal to the limescale threshold value (TCal).
