TIMER

The timer provided with the oven control serves as an extra reminder in the kitchen. When the timer reaches less than 1 minute the display will start to count down in seconds. When the time runs out the active timer will beep, and “End” will be displayed.

The following time settings apply to the timers:

TO SET ADD 1 MINUTE FEATURE

The ADD 1 MINUTE pad is used to set the Add 1 Minute feature. When the pad is pressed, 1 minute is added to the Timer feature if this feature is already active. If the Timer feature is not active and the pad is pressed, the Timer feature will become active and will begin counting down from 1 minute. For further information on how to set the Timer feature see Timer instructions above.

USING THE AIRGUARD FEATURE (SOME MODELS)

Your appliance is equipped with a catalytic oven exhaust cleaner that may be turned on during any cooking process. This feature helps remove smoke and eliminates 85% of the odors generated when using your oven. DO NOT use AirGuard when baking delicate bakery items.

If you wish to clean the oven exhaust once cooking has started, press AIRGUARD.

NOTE: The AirGuard indicator light will glow anytime AirGuard is active. AirGuard will automatically turn on and cannot be manually turned off during the Self-Cleaning cycle.

PREHEAT TEMPERATURE DISPLAY

Once a cooking feature has been started in one of the ovens, the control will display the actual oven temperature while preheating. Once the oven reaches the oven set temperature only the oven set temperature will display.

The preheat temperature display is available with the following cooking modes:

•Bake in lower oven

ACCENT LIGHT

Your appliance includes a decorative Accent light centered horizontally across the touch-sensitive control panel. The Accent light comes with a theatre style intensity feature that slowly increases brightness at turn on and slowly fades when turning off.

When the Accent light is off, the light is in automatic mode. This means the Accent light will turn on automatically when an oven or Timer has been activated. The Accent light will turn off automatically when these functions are no longer active.

When the Accent light is OFF, it may be manually turned ON by pressing the Accent Light keypad once. When the Accent light has been manually turned on, it will remain on until manually turned off by pressing the Accent Light keypad again. The brightness of the Accent light may also be adjusted.

See example below to adjust Accent light brightness:

1.Press and hold the ACCENT LIGHT keypad until an acceptance tone sounds (about 6 seconds).

2.Using the numeric keypads, enter any digit from 0 to 100 to change the brightness level. Entering 0 will

effectively turn the Accent light OFF until the brightness level is adjusted to a higher level.

3.Press START to save the desired brightness setting.
