Using Your Range
Continued
To avoid sickness and food waste when using the MEAL- TIMER’” control:
l Do not use foods that will spoil while waiting for cooking to start, such as dishes with milk or eggs, cream soups, and cooked meats or fish. Any food that has to wait for cooking to start should be very cold or frozen before it is put in the oven. MOST UNFROZEN FOODS SHOULD NEVER STAND MORE THAN TWO HOURS BEFORE COOKING STARTS.
l Do not use foods containing baking powder or yeast when using delay staR. They will not rise properly.
l Do not allow food to remain in oven for more than two hours after end of cooking cycle.
The oven vent
Hot air and moisture escape from the oven through a vent just under the cooktop light. The vent is needed for air circulation. Do not block the vent. Poor baking will result.
Burn Hazard
When the oven is ON, pans and pan handles left near the oven vent can become hot enough to burn the user and to melt plastics. Use potholders to move pans. Never store plastics, paper or
other items that could melt or
burn near the oven vent, or any of the surface burners.
