Using the Cook Timer

The automatic Cook Timer is designed to turn the oven on and off at times you set, even when you are not around.

Automatic baking is ideal for foods which do not require a preheated oven such as meats and casseroles. Do not use the automatic cycle for cakes, cookies, etc...undercooking will result.

To start baking now and stop automatically:

1, Position rack(s) properly, and place the food in the oven.

2.Make sure the clock is set to the correct time-of-day. (See “Setting the electronic clock” on page 4.)

When the desired stop time is reached the Oven Indicator Light will go off, a lo-second tone will sound and-the display will return to the current time-of-day. The AUTO light will flash on and off until the Cancel/Clock button is pushed. The oven will shut off automatically.

7.After baking is done or to stop the oven before preset time, push the Cancel/Clock button and turn both the Oven Selector and the Oven Temperature Control to OFF.

To avoid sickness and food waste when using delay start:

n Do not use foods that will spoil while waiting for cooking to start, such as dishes with milk or eggs, cream soups, and cooked meats or fish. Any food that has to wait for cooking to start should be very cold or frozen before it is put in the oven. MOST UNFROZEN FOODS SHOULD NEVER STAND MORE THAN TWO HOURS BEFORE COOKING STARTS.

. Do not use foods containing baking powder or yeast when using delay start. They will not rise properly.

. Do not allow food to remain in oven for more than two hours after end of cooking cycle.

Hot air and moisture escape from the oven through a vent located at the back of the cooktop. Do not block the vent. Poor baking can result.

Bum Hazard

When the oven is ON, pans and pan handles left near the oven vent can become hot enough to bum the user and to melt plastics. Use potholders to move pans. Never store plastics, paper or other items that could melt or bum near the oven vent, or any of the surface burners.
