4.  Enter your cooking values following “Convection Cooking” steps 

(above). 

5.  Press and hold “M” in the “Program” section of the control panel until 

“mem” appears in the read out window. 

 
Humidity –  
The Switch-Air Digital Convection ovens allow the operator to choose from 20% to 100% 
humidity during the cooking process. 20% means that humidity is being introduced into the 
cooking cavity 12 seconds of each minute the product is cooking. 
IMPORTANT! You are not destined to failure if you chose 40% humidity where it may have 
been better choosing 20%.  
RELAX, have fun…keep it simple, and enjoy the results, 20% is always a great place to start. 
Steam is controlled with the “Select” touch pad next to the readout window of the control 
panel. The “LED” readout will indicate the percent of humidity chosen (from 20% to 
100%).  
 
Let’s first see what steam does in a roasting or baking application. 

•  Steam makes heat hotter, so a 325°F oven with steam injected into the cooking 

chamber performs more like a 350°F oven, as far as cooking time is concerned. It is 
much the same as when you changed from a conventional oven to a convection oven, 
and you had to drop your temperatures by about 25°F.  

•  Steam will also reduce the amount of shrinkage you will get when roasting meats, as 

well as increase the moisture in your finished product. Our digital convection ovens 
won’t add moisture to your products during the cooking process but they will increase 
the amount of moisture retained in your cooked foods. 

•  The higher the percentage of steam programmed into the cooking chamber, the more 

time it will take for your food to brown. Humidity slows the browning process. 

•  Some manufacturers do not even allow you to choose the percent of humidity you use 

to cook with. Switch-Air Digital convection ovens let you control the humidity up to 
100% during the cooking process.
