Steam can condensate on the bottom of
the cavity and the visibility inside the
appliance can be limited. If this occurs,
dry the cavity when the appliance is cool.
At the end of a steam
cooking cycle, the appliance
cooling fan runs at a higher
speed to evacuate in a
better way the excess of
steam. This is normal.
