TIMED COOKING

In timed cooking, the oven turns on immediately and cooks for the length of time you select. At the end of the cooking time, the oven turns off automatically.

You can use the timed cooking feature only with another cooking operation (bake, convection bake, or convection roast).

You can set the oven for timed cooking before setting other cooking operations.

The clock must be set to the correct time of day.

How to set the oven for timed cooking

1. Enter the setup.

Press the pad for the cooking operation you want, eg. BAKE. The default temperature is 350°F.

2. Enter the temperature you want, eg. 375°F, by using the number pads.

. Press the COOKING TIME pad.

. Enter the cooking time you want, eg. 45 min, by using the number pads.

You can set the cooking time for any amount from 1 minute to 9 hours and 99 minutes.

. Press the SET/START pad to begin cooking operation.

The temperature display will start to change once the oven temperature reaches 150°F.

The oven will continue to cook until the set amount of time has elapsed, then turn off automatically unless the keep warm feature was set. (Refer to the section on the keep warm feature on page 33.)

. You can cancel a timed cooking at any time by pressing the CLEAR/OFF pad.

Place food in the oven after preheating if the recipe calls for it. Preheating is important for good results when baking cakes, cookies, pastry, and breads. After the oven has reached the desired temperature, a long beep will sound 6 times.

Use caution with the timed cooking or delay timed cooking features. Use these

CAUTION features when cooking cured or frozen meats and most fruits and vegetables. Foods that can easily spoil, such as milk, eggs, fi sh, meat or poultry, should be chilled in the

refrigerator fi rst. Even when chilled, they should not stand in the oven for more than 1 hour before cooking begins, and should be removed promptly when cooking is completed. Eating spoiled food can result in sickness from food poisoning.
