•The OVEN ON light stays on during any active cooking mode, and remains on until either of the oven control knobs is turned to the OFF position.

Note:

The interior oven light is operated by a separate switch that turns the light on and off, independent of any control setting.

Extended Bake

This unique cooking mode is for assisting the user for compliance to Sabbath principles.

1.Select EXTENDED BAKE mode using the Mode Selector Knob.

2.Set oven temperature using the Temperature Selector Knob.

•PREHEATING PHASE is the same as for other BAKE modes. Once the oven is preheated to the selected temperature, the twenty-two (22) minute Extended Bake cycle begins.

•ACTIVE PHASE baking is as usual for nineteen (19) minutes, except during the last two (2) minutes, the OVEN ON and PREHEATING lights blink slowly (on 3 sec. / off 3 sec. together) to serve as a NOTICE for the final phase.

•ACCESS PHASE (oven idle):

Once the two lights stop blinking (both remaining on), the final three (3) minutes allows the Sabbath user access to the oven without effecting a change in the operation of the range. The oven burner remains off during this phase.

Automatic operation of the cooling blower:

The cooling blower does not activate in any of the BAKE modes for temperature settings less than 425°F. For temperature settings of 425°F or greater, the cooling blower activates only after the oven reaches 425°F, while heating up to the set temperature. When the oven is turned off, the blower remains on until the oven temperature cools to 375°F. Likewise for BROIL mode, the cooling blower activates only after the oven reaches 425°F, while heating up to broiling temperature.

DO NOT continue to use the oven if the cooling blower fails to activate while baking at temperature settings of 425°F or greater, or while broiling. Call a qualified service agency to repair the range.

Other Uses of Bake

Slow Cooking and Low Temperature Uses of the Oven

In addition to providing perfect temperatures for baking and roasting, the oven can be used at low temperatures to keep hot, cooked foods at serving temperature, to dehydrate food and to warm plates.

Hot cooked foods can be kept at serving temperatures. Set the oven to bake and use the temperature suggested on the chart.

For best results, preheat the oven to the desired temperature.

Foods that need to be kept moist must be covered with a lid or aluminum foil.

FOOD SAFETY

The United States Department of Agriculture advises: DO NOT hold foods at temperatures between 40°F to 140°F more than 2 hours. Cooking raw foods below 275°F is not recommended.
