Sabbath Feature (for use on the Jewish Sabbath & Holidays)

For further assistance, guidelines for proper usage and a complete list of models with the Sabbath feature, please visit the web at http:\\www.star-k.org.

The Cook Time and Delay Start keypads are used to set the Sabbath feature. The Sabbath feature may only be used after the Bake function is active.

Once the oven is properly set using the Bake function and the Sabbath mode is active, the oven will remain continuously ON until the Sabbath feature is cancelled. The Sabbath feature will override the factory preset 12- Hour Energy Saving feature and start the continuous bake mode.

FOOD POISONING HAZARD. Do not let food sit for more than one hour before or after cooking. Doing so can result in food poisoning or sickness. Foods that can easily spoil such as milk, eggs, fish, meat or poultry, should be chilled in the refrigerator first. Even when chilled, they should not stand in the oven for more than 1 hour before cooking begins, and should be removed promptly when finished cooking.

Example — To program the oven to Bake at default oven temperature of 350°F and activate the Sabbath feature:

1.Be sure the clock is set with the correct time of day.

2.Arrange oven racks, place cookware in oven and close oven door.

3.Press Bake keypad.

4.Press START.

5.If Cook Time or Delay Start are not needed, skip this step and continue to step 6. If a Cook Time or Delay Start are desired enter the times and press START.

Refer to the Cook Time and Delay Start sections for detailed instructions.

6.Press and hold both Cook Time and Delay Start keypads simultaneously for about 3 seconds to set the Sabbath feature. The control will provide an acceptance tone and SAb (See Fig. 1) will appear in the display indicating the oven is properly set for the Sabbath feature.

Example — To turn the oven off and keep the Sabbath feature active:

Press OFF.

Example — To turn off the Sabbath feature:

Press and hold both Cook Time and Delay Start keypads simultaneously for at least 3 seconds to turn the Sabbath feature off. The control will provide an acceptance tone and SAb will disappear from the display. The oven is no longer programmed for the Sabbath feature.

What to do during a power failure or power interruption after the Sabbath feature was activated:

Should you experience a power failure or interruption, the oven will shut-off. When power is restored the oven will not turn back on automatically, but will remember that it is set for the Sabbath. The display will show the message SF for Sabbath failure (Fig. 2).

Food may be safely removed from the oven while still in the Sabbath feature, however the oven cannot be turned back on until after the Sabbath/Holidays. After the Sabbath observance turn OFF the Sabbath feature. Press and hold both Cook Time and Delay Start keypads for at least 3 seconds simultaneously and SF will disappear from the display.

Important notes:

•It is not advised to attempt activating any other oven function except Bake while the Sabbath feature is active. ONLY the following keypads will function correctly when the Sabbath feature is active: 0-9 number keypads, Bake, START and OFF. ALL OTHER KEYPADS should not be used once the Sabbath feature is activated.

•You may change the oven temperature once baking has started. Press Bake keypad, use the numeric keypads to enter the oven temperature change (170 to 550F°) and press START (for Jewish Holidays only). Remember that the oven control will no longer provide audible tones or display any further changes once the Sabbath feature is active.

•It is recommended that any oven temperature change with the Sabbath feature active be followed with 2 presses of the START keypad to insure the oven remains ON even if the oven temperature is set incorrectly. If an incorrect oven temperature is set, the oven will default to 170°F or 550°F. Try to set the desired oven temperature again.

•If the oven light is needed during the Sabbath, press the Oven Light keypad before activating the Sabbath feature. Once the oven light is turned on and the Sabbath feature is active, the oven light will remain on until the Sabbath feature is turned OFF. If the oven light needs to be off, be sure to turn the oven light off before activating the Sabbath feature.

•Remember the oven will shut-off automatically after completing a Cook Time, Delay Start or Keep Warm and therefore may only be used once during the Sabbath/Jewish Holidays.

•If a Delay Start time longer than the default 11 hours and 59 minutes is desired, set the oven control for the 24 hour day display mode setting. For detailed instructions see Setting 12 or 24 hour display modes.
