Cleaning Operating Instructions Safety

Place the covered dough in a dish in the oven on shelf B or C.

NOTE: For best results, cover the dough with a cloth or with greased plastic wrap (the plastic may need to be anchored underneath the container so the oven fan will not blow it off).

Touch the PROOF pad and then the START pad.

The display will read PrF (proof).

The oven interior light turns on and remains on during proofing.

The proofing feature automatically provides the optimum temperature for the proofing process, and therefore does not have a temperature adjustment.

Set the KITCHEN TIMER ON/OFF for the minimum proof time.

When proofing is finished, touch the CLEAR/OFF pad.

■To avoid lowering the oven temperature and lengthening proofing time, do not open the oven door unnecessarily.

■Check bread products early to avoid over-proofing.

NOTE:

■Do not use the proofing mode for warming food or keeping food hot. The proofing oven temperature is not hot enough to hold foods at safe temperatures. Use the WARM feature to keep food warm.

■Proofing will not operate when oven is above 125°F. “HOT” will show in the display.
