Delay Timed Cooking Features

If you want to set the oven to automatically turn itself on or off at a later time, you can use the delay timed fea- tures.

Things to Know About Delay Timed Cooking

•The delay timed options work for all of the various cook modes, except Broil and Convection Broil.

•You may use the timers while using the delay timed features. The timers do not have an effect on any of the delay timed cooking options.

•The delay timed cycle can be canceled at any time by pushing CANCEL · SECURE.

warning

Food safety is an important consideration when using the delay timed features. To avoid potential sickness and the spoiling of food, take the following steps:

•Avoid using foods that will spoil while waiting for the oven to start cooking. Typical foods to avoid include: those containing eggs and dairy products, cream soups and cooked or uncooked meats, poultry, and fish.

•Do not allow foods to remain in the oven after it turns completely off. When the temperature drops below 140°F, bacteria can develop (after hold mode).

•If cooking will not begin immediately, place only very cold or frozen food into the oven. Most unfrozen foods should never stand in the oven for more than two hours before cooking begins.

The Three Ways to Use Delay Timed Cooking

•Set the time the oven turns on (START TIME) and set it to turn off at a later time using either the DURATION key or the STOP TIME key.

•Set the START TIME only, then turn the oven off manu- ally when you are done cooking.

•Turn the oven on manually and set it to turn off at a later time using either the DURATION key or the STOP TIME key.
