PROOFING / SELF CLEANING MODE

12” OVEN PROOF MODE

This feature of the 12” Proofing Oven maintains a warm, draft free environment useful for proofing yeast leavened products.

SETTING THE 12” OVEN FOR PROOFING

1)Place dough in dish in the small oven.

2)Press “PROOF” Selector button

The “OVEN ON” light and oven interior lights turn on.

The “HEATING” light will not turn on in the proofing mode. The thermostat dial setting does not effect the proof temp.

The ideal temperature for proofing will be maintained until the “OFF” button is depressed.

3)Set a Minute timer for less than the minimum proof time.

NOTES: A) Do Not Open the Oven Door unnecessarily as doing so will lower the oven temperature and lengthen proofing time.

B)Proofing time may be decreased when using the large oven at the same time you are proofing. Check bread product early to avoid over-proofing. If you are using the large oven for extended periods of time, we recommend, for optimum results, that you complete the proofing before turning the large oven on.

DO NOT use the proofing oven for warming food or keeping food hot. The proofing oven temperature is not hot enough to hold foods at safe temperatures (above 1400F).

OVEN SELF-CLEANING MODE

The self-cleaning oven of your new range features pyrolytic self-cleaning. When set in the clean mode, the oven reaches a high temperature that burns off the food soil. When the oven is set for clean, only the cooktop burners may be used. The 12” Electric Proofing Oven, the griddle and/or the grill cannot be used. It is common to see smoke and/or flames during the clean cycle, depending on the content and amount of soil remaining in the oven. If a flame persists, turn off the oven and allow it to cool before opening the door to wipe up the excessive food soil. At the end of the clean cycle, some gray ash or burned residue may remain inside the oven. This is a mineral deposit that does not burn or melt. The amount of ash depends on how heavily soiled the oven was before the oven was cleaned. It is easily removed, once the oven has cooled, using a damp paper towel, sponge, or cloth. Wipe off any smoke residue that remains on the front frame with Formula 409® or Fantastik®. If stain remains, use a mild liquid cleanser. The amount of smoke stain is directly related to the amount of food soil left in the oven at the time of self-cleaning. Clean the oven often.
