せる。At this time, when the sensing signal from the humidity sensor 35 provided in the cold / hot cooking chamber 31 is applied to the microcomputer 48 in STEP 12, the microcomputer 48 compares the signal data with the setting data of 4.5%, and in STEP 13, the cooling temperature is set. When the humidity in the cooking chamber 31 is dried to the set humidity of 4.5%, the reverse rotation fan 37 is turned off, the damper thermostat 41 is closed, and the drying in the cold / hot cooking chamber 31 is stopped.

When the temperature in the cooking chamber 31 falls below the set temperature T 2 , the radiant heater 2
Turn on 2 to raise the room temperature.
【0042】その後、室内の温度が設定温度以下に上昇
