Using the Crisp function
(moisture reduction)
It is a good idea to use this function
when cooking items which are moist on
the inside but which should be crispy
on the outside, e.g. frozen chips,
croquettes or pork with crackling.
It is also suitable for deep filled fresh
fruit cakes, such as plum or apple cake.

We recommend using automatic
switching on and off when roasting.
For baking do not delay the start for
too long as the cake mixture or dough
will dry out, and the raising agents will
lose their effectiveness.

off automatically you have a choice of
how to enter the time parameters:

Your oven is equipped with a steam
injection system for cooking with
moisture. Baking, roasting and cooking
with Moisture plus  guarantees
optimised steam and air conduction for
excellent cooking and browning results.
After selecting Moisture plus  you
need to set the temperature and the
number of bursts of steam.
The options are:
–Automatic burst of steam
This requires enough water for one
burst of steam. The burst of steam
will be injected into the oven
automatically after the...

One burst of steam takes approx. 5–
8 minutes. The number of bursts of
steam and when they are injected will
depend on the type of food being
cooked:
–Yeast mixtures will rise better if
steam is injected at the beginning of
the programme.
–Bread and rolls also rise better if
exposed to steam at the start.
Injecting a burst of steam at the end
of the programme will give the bread
and rolls a glistening crust.
–When roasting meat with a high fat
content injecting steam at the
beginning...

When to add the steam
This option will only appear in the
display after you have selected 1, 2 or
3 bursts of steam.
Tip: If you have selected more than one
burst of steam, the second burst should
be released at least 10 minutes after
starting the programme.
Manual steam
If you want to bake food such as
bread or bread rolls in a pre-heated
oven it is best to release the steam
manually. The first burst of steam
should be released as soon as you
have placed the food in the oven.

Injecting bursts of steam
Steam can cause scalding.
Do not open the door during bursts
of steam. Also, condensation on the
sensors will cause them to have a
slow reaction time.
Automatic burst of steam
Automatic burst of steam appears in the
display.
Once the heating-up phase has been
completed, the automatic burst of
steam is injected.
The water will vaporise in the oven

Residual water evaporation
When cooking using the addition of
moisture, the water will be equally
distributed between the number of
bursts of steam and used up as long as
the programme is not interrupted.
However, if a programme using the
addition of moisture is interrupted
before all the bursts of steam have
been injected, the water for these
unused bursts of steam will remain in
the system.
The next time Moisture Plus  or an
Automatic programme with moisture is
used Evaporate...
