A preheat conditioning time counts down the approximate preheat time after the oven temperature has been set and START has been pressed. The heat, bake, and on indicator lights will light up. The oven control automatically sets preheating times based on the oven temperature you select:

For 245°F and less, the preheating time is 4 minutes.

For 250°F-445°F, the preheating time is 10 minutes.

For above 450°F, the preheating time is 15 minutes.

The oven is preheated and ready to use when you hear a 1-second tone, the countdown is finished, and the set temperature is displayed.

The preheat and set temperatures may be different at the end of the countdown. This is normal.

When the oven temperature is greater than 170°F, no preheat conditioning time will be shown in the display.

You can change the temperature setting any time after pressing START/ENTER. You do not have to press START/ENTER again.

The preheat conditioning time will not change if you reset the temperature before the countdown time ends.

If you are baking/roasting while the minute timer is counting down, you can see the set baking/ roasting temperature for 5 seconds by pressing BAKE.

6.When baking, put your food in the oven after the preheat condition- ing time ends. During baking/roasting, the

oven burner will turn on and off to keep the oven temperature at the setting.

Saving energy

To avoid loss of heat, open the oven door as little as possible.

Use a timer to keep track of cooking time.

Plan your meals for the most efficient use of the oven by cooking more than one food at a time, or baking while the oven is still hot after cooking a meal.

7. After cooking, turn off the oven.
