Moisture

The  mode and
Combi mode
functions use a combination of oven
heat and moisture. You can alter the
moisture/humidity level within a given
range for an individual cooking pro‐
gramme or a cooking stage.
Depending on the moisture setting for
the programme, either moisture or fresh
air is injected into the oven. If the mois‐
ture level is set to 0 %, the maximum
amount of air will be injected and no
moisture. If the moisture level is set
to 100 %, air will not be injected into
the oven and the maximum amount of
moisture will be injected.
Some food gives off moisture during
the cooking process. This moisture
from the food also controls the amount
of moisture needed. If the required
amount of moisture is very low and the
food already contains a lot of water the
steam generator may not be activated
at all.

sound of water being pumped through
the system and is quite normal.
