5.Press START/ENTER.

A preheat conditioning time counts down the approximate preheat time after the oven temperature has been set and START/ENTER has been pressed. The oven control automatically sets preheating times based on the oven temperature you select:

For 245°F and less, the preheating time is 2 minutes, 30 seconds.

For 250°F-445°F, the preheating time is 4 minutes, 15 seconds.

For above 450°F, the preheating time is 6 minutes, 30 seconds.

As the preheat conditioning ends, the selected oven temperature replaces “PrE” on the display and the time of day reappears. You will hear

a 1-second tone, indicating the oven is ready to use.

The ACCUBAKE® system electronically regulates the preheat time and temperature to maintain a precise temperature range for the best cooking results. The preheat and set temperatures may be different at the end of the countdown. This is normal.

NOTE: You can change the temperature setting any time after pressing START/ENTER. You do not have to press START/ENTER again. The preheat time will not change if you reset the temperature before the countdown time ends.

Saving energy

To avoid loss of heat, open the oven door as little as possible.

Use a timer to keep track of cooking time.

Plan your meals for the most efficient use of the oven by cooking more than one food at a time, or baking while the oven is still hot after cooking a meal.
