Cakes and cookies
Using the steam oven, you can prepare your 
baked items with the optimum humidity:
a
 | Convection + 0% Humidity: 
moisture can escape in the case of fruit cakes 
and quiche. This mode corresponds to hot air 
in the conventional oven.
`
 | Convection + 30% Humidity: 
mixed cake does not dry out. The intrinsic 
humidity in a food cannot escape from the 
oven interior.
_
 - 
\
 | Convection + 60 - 100% Humidity: 
puff pastry and yeast-risen pastries become 
looser on the inside and crispy on the outside 
with a gloss.
You can only bake on one level in the steam oven. 
Insert the unperforated cooking container into the 
second level from below. When using a high 
baking tin, place it on the wire rack, which you 
then insert in the first level from below.
Always leave the grease filter in place when 
baking.
Misting brings additional steam to the food during 
baking with Convection + 0% Humidity or with 
Convection + 30% Humidity when touching the 
2
 
symbol. Use the misting function for example 
when baking bread at the beginning of the baking 
time and the bread will increase in volume and 
will get a crispy crust.
