Warm Hold Feature

WARNING

Food Poisoning Hazard

Do not let food sit in oven more than one hour before or after cooking.

Doing so can result in food poisoning or sickness.

IMPORTANT: Food must be at serving temperature before placing it in the warmed oven. Food may be held up to one hour, however breads and casseroles may become to dry if left in the oven during Warm Hold.

Warm Hold Feature allows hot cooked foods to stay serving temperature. It can also be used at the end of a timed cook.

To Use Automatic Warm Hold Feature:

At the end of a timed cook, either with or without a delayed start, or at the end of a sequence program in which the last step is not the Warm Hold mode, the oven will automatically default to a 1-hour warm hold mode at 170°F (80°C).

When the cook time ends or the last step of the sequence is complete, the display will show a warming countdown time. When warming ends, the oven will automatically shut off and “End” will appear on the display. Four tones will sound and then four 1-second reminder tones will sound every minute thereafter.

To Disable Automatic Warm Hold: Press and hold WARM for 5 seconds. “Off” will appear in the 4-digit display. Repeat to turn back on.

When using the Automatic Warm Hold Feature, cook times may need to be adjusted accordingly so that foods do not become over cooked and dry.

To Use Manual Warm Hold Feature:

1.Press WARM.

2.Set the temperature (optional).

Press the TEMP “up” or “down” arrow pad to raise or lower the temperature in 5°F (5°C) amounts to set a temperature other than 150°F (80°C). The warm range is 100°F-200°F (40°C-95°C).

3.Press START.

4.Press OFF/CANCEL when finished.
