TOASTING
With the wire shelf in position 2 you can toast up to 6 slices of bread, muffin halves, bagels, frozen waffles and pancakes. For toasting, place the bread and follow the instruction on the drawing below:
1 slice | 2 slices | 4 slices | 6 slices |
- The toast programming dial can be set clockwise for light, medium or dark toast or any shade in between.
- Set the thermostat dial (D) to TOAST/BROIL and the function selector dial (F) to pos. TOAST.
- When the time is up the oven shuts off and a signal bell rings.
As you use the oven, the best settings for favorite breads will become familiar.
KEEP WARM SETTING
- Set the thermostat dial (D) to the KEEP WARM position.
- Set the ON/OFF and toast programming dial clockwise to pos. ON. - Set the function selector dial (F) to pos. FAN BAKE/DEH.
When food has finished cooking it can be held at this setting on the temperature control for up to an hour. Any longer can dry out the food and risks spoilage.
If the oven set to 200°F seems too hot, to obtain a lower serving temperature turn the thermostat dial back to the KEEP WARM mark. Do not attempt to hold food longer or to rewarm cold food at this setting.
When finished, turn the ON/OFF dial to the “OFF” position and the thermostat dial to the “●” position.
DEFROSTING
Portions and pieces of raw meat, poultry and fish, frozen soups, pastry, fruit or leftovers will thaw more quickly on this setting than on a counter or in the refrigerator.
- Set the function selector dial (F) at the defrost symbol and the thermostat dial to the position “●”.
-Turn the ON/OFF and toast programming dial clockwise to pos. ON. DO NOT attempt to speed thawing by turning to DEH or KEEP WARM.
Thaw only pieces or portions small enough to thaw in an hour or less and do not
let food come to room temperature.
Thawed food held too long or at a warm temperature can cause serious illness. Large amounts of food should be defrosted in a refrigerator.
