Timer

The timer can be set in hours or minutes up to 12 hours and

59 minutes, and counts down the set time either in hours and minutes, or in minutes and seconds. The timer does not start or stop the oven.

To Set:

1.Press TIMER. The timer indicator light will light up. If no action is taken after 1 minute, the display will return to the time of day, bake or broil mode.

2.Press the TEMP/HOUR “up” or “down” arrow pads to set the length of time.

3.Press START. When the set time ends, end-of-cycle tones will sound.

4.Press TIMER pad twice anytime to cancel the timer and reminder tones.

If the CANCEL/OFF pad is pressed the oven will turn off and the cook function will be disabled.

To display the time of day for 5 seconds when the timer is counting down, press CLOCK pad.

If the START pad is not pressed within 5 seconds after pressing the TIMER pad or TEMP/HOUR arrow pads, the “PSH” indicator light will flash and the push to start tone will sound as a reminder.

The timer can be reprogrammed to change the time while it is running.

To Reprogram:

1.Press TIMER.

2.Press TEMP/HOUR “up” or “down” arrow pads to adjust time.

3.Press START.

ControlLock

The Control Lock function blocks the control panel pads to avoid unintended use of cook functions.

When the control is locked, only the CLOCK set, OVEN LIGHT and TIMER pads will function.

To Lock/Unlock Control: Before locking, make sure the cook functions are off. Press and hold START for 3 seconds, and “Loc” will appear on the display. Repeat to unlock. “Loc” will disappear from the display.

OvenTemperatureControl

IMPORTANT: Do not use a thermometer to measure oven temperature because opening the oven door may cause the burner cycling to give incorrect readings.

The oven provides accurate temperatures; however, it may cook faster or slower than your previous oven, so the temperature calibration can be adjusted. It can be changed in Fahrenheit or Celsius.

A minus sign means the oven will be cooler by the displayed amount. The absence of a minus sign means the oven will be warmer by the displayed amount. Use the following chart as a guide.

OVEN USE

Odors and smoke are normal when the oven is used the first few times, or when it is heavily soiled.

IMPORTANT: The health of some birds is extremely sensitive to the fumes given off. Exposure to the fumes may result in death to certain birds. Always move birds to another closed and well- ventilated room.

AluminumFoil

IMPORTANT: To avoid permanent damage to the oven bottom finish, do not line the oven bottom with any type of foil or liner.

■On those models with bottom vents, do not block or cover the oven bottom vents.

■For best cooking results, do not cover entire rack with foil because air must be able to move freely.

■To catch spills, place foil on rack below dish. Make sure foil is at least ¹⁄₂" (1.3 cm) larger than the dish and that it is turned up at the edges.

PositioningRacks andBakeware

IMPORTANT: To avoid permanent damage to the porcelain finish, do not place food or bakeware directly on the oven door or bottom.

RACKS

■Position racks before turning on the oven.

■Do not move racks with bakeware on them.

■Make sure racks are level.

For best performance, cook on one rack. Place the rack so the top of food will be centered in the oven. To move a rack, pull it out to the stop position, raise the front edge, then lift out.
