The oven vent should not be blocked or covered since it allows the release of hot air and moisture from the oven. Blocking or covering vents will cause poor air circulation, affecting cooking and cleaning results. Do not set plastics, paper or other items that could melt or burn near the oven vent.

Meat Thermometer

On models without a temperature probe, use a meat thermometer to determine whether meat, poultry and fish, are cooked to the desired degree of doneness. The internal temperature, not appearance, should be used to determine doneness. A meat thermometer is not supplied with this appliance. Follow manufacturer's directions for using a meat thermometer.

Sabbath Mode

The Sabbath Mode sets the oven to remain on in a bake setting until turned off. A timed Sabbath Mode can also be set to keep the oven on for only part of the Sabbath.

When the Sabbath Mode is set, the number pads are active. On single oven models, CANCEL and START are also active. On double oven models, UPPER and LOWER OVEN CANCEL are also active. No tones will sound, and the displays will not show messages or temperature changes. The heat sources icons will appear lit on the oven display throughout the Sabbath Mode.

When the oven door is opened or closed, the oven light will not turn on or off and the heating elements will not turn on or off immediately.

If a power failure occurs when the Sabbath Mode is set, the oven will return to the Sabbath Mode in an untimed bake with a temperature of 350°F (177°C).

To Enable:

Before the Sabbath Mode can be regularly set, the oven(s) must first be enabled with a one time only setup. On double oven models, the following steps will enable both ovens.

1.On double ovens, open the upper oven door. On single ovens, open the oven door.

The oven can be disabled of the ability to set the Sabbath Mode. When disabled, the Sabbath Mode cannot be regularly set until re-enabled. On double oven models, the following steps will disable both ovens.

1.On double ovens, open the upper oven door. On single ovens, open the oven door.

2.On double ovens, press UPPER CANCEL. On single ovens press CANCEL.

3.Press the number pads 7, 8, 9, 6, in this order.
