2.Press the TEMP/HOUR “More” or “Less” arrow pads to increase or to decrease the temperature in 10°F (5°C) amounts. The adjustment can be set between 30°F (15°C) and -30°F (- 15°C).

If “12 Hr” is displayed the oven will automatically shut off after 12 hours. Press TIMER to toggle to “- Hr” to disable the 12-hour shutoff.

“LOn” indicates that the oven light will turn on when the door is open. If “LOFF” is displayed the oven light will turn on only with the oven light switch. Press TIMER to toggle through selection.

Aluminum Foil

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

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

To cook food evenly, hot air must be able to circulate. Allow

2" (5 cm) of space around bakeware and oven walls. Make sure that no bakeware piece is directly over another.
