Warm Hold Feature

WARNING

Food Poisoning Hazard

Do not let food sit in oven more than one hour before or after cooking.

Doing so can result in food poisoning or sickness.

IMPORTANT: Food must be at serving temperature before placing it in the warmed oven. Food may be held up to 1 hour, however breads and casseroles may become too dry if left in the oven during Warm Hold.

Warm Hold Feature allows hot cooked foods to stay serving temperature. It can also be used at the end of a timed cook.

To Use Automatic Warm Hold Feature:

At the end of a timed cook, either with or without a delayed start, or at the end of a sequence program in which the last step is not the Warm Hold mode, the oven will automatically default to a 1-hour Warm Hold mode at 170°F (77°C).

When using the Automatic Warm Hold Feature, cook times may need to be adjusted accordingly so that foods do not become over cooked and dry.

When the cook time ends or the last step of the sequence is complete, the display will show a warming countdown time. When warming ends, the oven will automatically shut off and “End” will appear on the display. Four tones will sound and then four 1-second reminder tones will sound every minute thereafter.

To Disable Automatic Warm Hold: Press and hold WARM for 5 seconds. “Off” will appear in the 4-digit display. Repeat to turn back on.

To Use Manual Warm Hold Feature:

1.Press WARM.

2.Set the temperature (optional).

Press the TEMP “up” or “down” arrow pad to raise or lower the temperature in 5°F (3°C) amounts to set a temperature other than 150°F (66°C). The warm range is 100°F-200°F (38°C-93°C).

3.Press START.

4.Press CANCEL when finished.

Timed Cooking

WARNING

Food Poisoning Hazard

Doing so can result in food poisoning or sickness.

Timed Cooking allows the oven to be set to turn on at a certain time of day, cook for a set length of time, and/or shut off automatically. Delay start should not be used for foods such as breads and cakes which use ingredients such as yeast or baking powder to leaven the food.

Press the TEMP “up” or “down” arrow pads to enter a temperature other than the one displayed.

2.Press STOP TIME.

3.Press the HR and MIN “up” or “down” arrow pads to enter the desired time to end cooking.

4.Press START.

The display will count down the time.

When the time ends, the oven will shut off automatically and “End” will appear on the display.

End-of-cycle tones will sound; then, if enabled, reminder tones will sound every minute.

5.Open and close the oven door to clear the display and/or stop reminder tones.
