9 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

Fire Safety

WARNING

NEVER cover any slots, holes or passages in the oven bottom or cover an entire rack with materials such as aluminum foil. Doing so blocks air flow through the oven. Aluminum foil linings may also trap heat, causing a fire hazard.

If materials inside an oven or warming drawer should ignite, keep door closed. Turn off the appliance and disconnect the circuit at the circuit breaker box.

WARNING

Use this appliance only for its intended use as described in this manual. NEVER use this appliance as a space heater to heat or warm the room. Doing so may result in overheating the appliance. Never use the appliance for storage.

Always have a working smoke detector near the kitchen. In the event that personal clothing or hair catches fire,

drop and roll immediately to extinguish flames. Have an appropriate fire extinguisher available, nearby,

highly visible and easily accessible near the appliance. Smother flames from food fires other than grease fires

with baking soda. Never use water on cooking fires.

WARNING

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY TO PERSONS IN THE EVENT OF A GREASE FIRE, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:

SMOTHER FLAMES with a close-fitting lid, cookie sheet, or metal tray, then turn off the burner. BE CAREFUL TO PREVENT BURNS. If the flames do not go out immediately, EVACUATE AND CALL THE FIRE DEPARTMENT.

NEVER PICK UP A FLAMING PAN – You may be burned.

DO NOT USE WATER, including wet dishcloths or towels – a violent steam explosion will result.

Use an extinguisher ONLY if:

- You know you have a Class ABC extinguisher, and you already know how to operate it.

- The fire is small and contained in the area where it started.

- The fire department is being called.

- You can fight the fire with your back to an exit.

Burn Prevention

DO NOT TOUCH HEATING ELEMENTS OR INTERIOR SURFACES OF OVEN - Heating elements may be hot even though they are dark in color. Interior surfaces of an oven become hot enough to cause burns. During and after use, do not touch, or let clothing, potholders, or

other flammable materials contact heating elements or interior surfaces of oven until they have had sufficient time to cool. Other surfaces of the appliance may become hot enough to cause burns. Among these surfaces are oven vent openings, surfaces near these openings and oven doors.

Do not touch interior surface of the drawer while it is in use. The interior drawer could become hot enough to cause burns. Allow drawer and rack (if equipped) to cool before handling.

Exercise caution when opening the appliance. Standing to the side, open the door (or drawer) slowly and slightly to let hot air and/or steam escape. Keep your face clear of the opening and make sure there are no children or pets near the unit. After the release of hot air and/or steam, proceed with your cooking. Keep doors shut unless necessary for cooking or cleaning purposes. Do not leave open doors unattended.

Do not heat or warm unopened food containers. Build-up of pressure may cause the container to burst and cause injury.

Use high heat settings on the cooktop only when necessary. To avoid bubbling and splattering, heat oil slowly on no more than a low-medium setting. Hot oil is capable of causing extreme burns and injury.

Use caution when cooking foods with high alcohol content (e.g. rum, brandy, bourbon) in the oven. Alcohol evaporates at high temperatures. There is a risk of burning as the alcohol vapors may catch fire in the oven. Use only small quantities of alcohol in foods, and open the oven door carefully.

Always place oven racks in desired location while oven is cool. Always use oven mitts, when the oven is warm. If a rack must be moved while oven is hot, do not let potholder contact the heating elements.

Never move a pan of hot oil, especially a deep fat fryer. Wait until it is cool.

CAUTION

To avoid possible injury or damage to the appliance, ensure rack is installed exactly per installation instructions and not backwards or upside down.

Always use dry potholders. Moist or damp potholders on hot surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do not let potholder touch hot heating elements. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth.

Secure all loose garments, etc. before beginning. Tie long hair so that it does not hang loose, and do not wear loose fitting clothing or hanging garments, such as ties, scarves, jewelry, or dangling sleeves.

Avoid reaching or leaning over the appliance. Be aware that certain clothing and hair sprays may contain flammable chemicals that could be ignited if brought in to contact with hot surface units or heating elements and may cause severe burns.

Do not allow children to use this appliance unless closely supervised by an adult. Children and pets should not be left alone or unattended in the area where the appliance is in use. They should never be allowed to play in its vicinity, whether or not the appliance is in use.

CAUTION

Items of interest to children should not be stored in an appliance, in cabinets above an appliance or on the backsplash. Children climbing on an appliance to reach items could be seriously injured.

Cleaning Safety

WARNING

RISK OF BURNS

; The appliance will become very hot on the outside

during the cleaning function. Never touch the appliance door. Allow the appliance to cool down. Keep children away from the appliance.

HAZARD DUE TO MAGNETISM The probe is magnetic. The magnetic elements can

damage electronic implants such as pacemakers or insulin pumps. People with electronic implants should therefore not put the temperature sensor in the pockets of their clothes and should maintain a minimum distance of 4 inches (10 cm) with respect to their pacemaker or similar medical device.

Notes

▯ Do not clean the appliance while it is still hot. Some

cleaners produce noxious fumes when applied to a hot surface. Wet cloths or sponges can cause burns from steam.

▯ When self-cleaning, confirm that the door locks and

will not open. If the door does not lock, do not run Self Clean. Contact service.

▯ Birds have very sensitive respiratory systems. Keep

pet birds out of the kitchen or other rooms where kitchen fumes could reach them. During Self Clean, fumes are released that may be harmful to birds. Other kitchen fumes such as overheating margarines and cooking oils may also be harmful.

▯ Keep oven free from grease build up.

9 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

Cookware Safety

Notes

▯ Do not place food directly on oven bottom. ▯ Follow the manufacturer’s directions when using

cooking or roasting bags.

▯ Hold the handle of the pan when stirring or turning

food. This helps prevent spills and movement of the pan.

▯ Use proper pan size.

The use of undersized cookware will expose a portion of the heating element or burner to direct contact and may result in ignition of clothing. Select cookware having flat bottoms large enough to cover the surface heating unit. This appliance is equipped with one or more surface units of different size. Proper relationship of cookware to heating element or burner will also improve efficiency.

▯ Cookware not approved for use with ceramic

cooktops may break with sudden temperature changes. Use only pans that are appropriate for ceramic cooktops. See Cookware Selection Guide.

▯ Always position handles of utensils inward so they do

not extend over adjacent work areas, burners or the edge of the cooktop. This reduces the risk of fires, spills and burns.

CAUTION

Plastic containers or plastic wrap can melt if in direct contact with the drawer or hot utensil. If it melts on to the drawer, it may not be removable.

State of California Proposition 65 Warnings

WARNING

This product can expose you to chemicals including vinyl chloride, which is known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm. For more information go to www.P65Warnings.ca.gov.

Note: IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE: The California Safe Drinking and Toxic Enforcement Act requires the Governor of California to publish a list of substance known to the state to cause cancer, birth defect or other reproductive harm, and requires businesses to warn customers of potential exposure to such substances. The burning of gas cooking fuel and the elimination of soil during self-cleaning can generate small amounts of carbon monoxide. The fiberglass insulation in Self Clean ovens gives off very small amounts of formaldehyde during the first several cleaning cycles. California lists formaldehyde as a potential cause of cancer. Carbon monoxide is a potential cause of reproductive toxicity. Exposure to these substances can be minimized by:

Providing good ventilation when cooking with gas.

Providing good ventilation during and immediately after self-cleaning the oven.

Operating the unit according to the instructions in this manual.

Food Safety

WARNING

RISK OF INJURY When cooking with a bain-marie, the cooktop and

cooking vessel may crack due to overheating. The cooking vessel in the bain-marie must not come in direct contact with the bottom of the pot filled with water. Use only heat-resistant cookware.

WARNING

DANGER OF INJURY Cookware may spring or bounce upward due to fluid

trapped between the cookware bottom and cooking zone. Always keep cooking zone and cookware bottom dry.

CAUTION

To maintain food safety, follow these guidelines:

a. DO NOT use a warming drawer to heat cold food. It is

safe to use the drawer to crisp crackers, chips or dry cereal and to warm plates.

Be sure to maintain proper food temperature. The USDA recommends holding hot food at 140°F or warmer.

DO NOT warm food for longer than one hour.

Causes of Damage

9 WARNING

RISK OF INJURY

NOTICES

▯ DO NOT place accessories or items such as foil,

greaseproof paper, oven liners or bakeware on the oven cavity floor. This will cause heat to accumulate. The baking and roasting times will no longer be correct and the enamel will be damaged.

▯ Aluminum foil in the cooking compartment must not

come into contact with the door glass. This could cause permanent discoloration of the door glass.

▯ Aluminum foil and plastic will melt in hot cooking

areas. Stove protective film is not suitable for your cooktop.

▯ Do not cook on a broken cooktop. Cleaning solutions

and spillovers may create risk of electric shock.

▯ Cookware with rough bottoms will scratch the glass

ceramic surface.

▯ Salt, sugar and grains of sand will scratch the glass

ceramic surface. Never use the cooktop as a working surface or for setting things down.

▯ Avoid heating pots or pans that are empty. ▯ Hard or sharp objects falling off the cooktop may

damage it.

▯ Sugar and products containing sugar may damage the

cooktop. Immediately eliminate spills of these products with a glass scraper once the cooktop has had sufficient time to cool.

▯ Never set down hot pans and pots on the control

panel or frame. This may cause damage.

▯ Always turn hood ON when cooking at high heat or

when flambéing food (i.e. Crepe Suzette, Cherries Jubilee, Peppercorn Beef Flambé).

▯ When baking particularly juicy fruit pies, do not pack

the baking tray too generously. Fruit juice dripping from the baking tray leaves stains that cannot be removed. If possible, use the deeper universal pan.

▯ If the seal is very dirty, the appliance door will no

longer close properly during operation. The fronts of adjacent units could be damaged. Always keep the seal clean.

▯ Shimmering metallic discolorations on the glass

ceramic surface result from the use of inappropriate

cleaning agents and abrasion from cookware.

▯ Do not use the appliance door as a seat, shelf or

worktop. Do not place any cookware or accessories

on the appliance door.

▯ Depending on the appliance type, accessories can

scratch the door glass when closing the door. Always

slide accessories into the cooking compartment as far

as they will go.

▯ Do not carry or hold the appliance by the door handle.

The door handle cannot support the weight of the

appliance and could break.

Protecting the Environment

Your new appliance is energy-efficient. Here you can find tips on how to save even more energy when using the appliance, and how to dispose of your appliance properly.

Unpack the appliance and dispose of the packaging in an environmentally friendly manner.

Saving Energy

▯ Only preheat the appliance if this is specified in the

recipe or in the tables in the operating instructions.

▯ Use baking tins that are dark-colored, painted black or

have an enamel coating. They absorb the heat particularly well.

▯ Open the appliance door as infrequently as possible

when the appliance is in use.

▯ It is best to bake several cakes one after the other.

The cooking compartment is still warm. This reduces the baking time for the second cake. You can place two cake tins next to each other in the cooking compartment.

▯ For longer cooking times, you can switch the

appliance off 10 minutes before the end of the cooking time and use the residual heat to finish cooking.

▯ Always place a fitting lid on cookware. Cooking with

an uncovered pan will result in a four-fold increase in energy use. Use a glass lid to provide visibility and avoid having to lift the lid.

▯ Use cookware equipped with a solid, flat bottom.

Curved pan bases increase energy consumption.

▯ The diameter of the pan base must match the size of

the element. If not, energy may be wasted. Note: The manufacturer normally indicates the pan’s

upper diameter. This is normally greater than the diameter of the pan’s base.

▯ Choose cookware of a size suited to the amount of

food you are going to cook. A large pan that is only half full will use more energy.

▯ Use a small amount of water when cooking. This

saves energy and vegetables retain a larger percentage of their vitamins and minerals.

▯ Select a lower power level. ▯ When cooking, ensure that there is sufficient supply air

so that the extractor hood works efficiently and quietly.

▯ Fan level adjust to the intensity of the cooking fumes.

Only use the high mode if necessary. A lower fan level means lower energy consumption.

▯ With intensive cooking fumes, select a higher fan level

early on. Cooking fumes that are already distributed in the kitchen mean that the extractor hood will have to be operated longer.

▯ Switch off the extractor hood when it is no longer

required.

▯ Switch off the lighting when it is no longer required.

▯ Clean and change the filter at the specified intervals in

order to increase the effectiveness of the ventilation

and prevent a risk of fire.

Settings table

The following table provides some examples. Cooking times may vary depending on the type of food, its weight and quality. Deviations are therefore possible.

Recommendations for cooking

▯ Set heat setting 8 to 9 for preheating ; for delicate

dishes like milk, pudding, rice pudding or cereals heat

up with setting 8 - 8.5.

▯ When cooking with the lid on, turn the heat setting

down as soon as steam escapes between the lid and

the cookware. Steam does not need to escape for a

good cooking result.

▯ After cooking, keep the lid on the cookware until you

serve the food.

▯ To cook with the pressure cooker, observe the

manufacturer's instructions.

▯ Do not cook food for too long, otherwise more

nutrients than necessary will be lost. The kitchen timer

can be used to set the optimum cooking time.

▯ For a more healthy cooking result, smoking oil should

be avoided.

▯ To brown food, fry small portions in succession. ▯ Cookware may reach high temperatures while the food

is cooking. We recommend that you use oven mits.

9 CAUTION

During cooking, stews or liquid meals such as soups, sauces or drinks can heat up too quickly unnoticed and overflow or spatter. For this reason we recommend that you stir continuously, gradually heating the food at a suitable power level.

Cooking with Induction

Advantages of induction cooking

Induction cooking is very different from traditional cooking methods, as heat builds up directly in the item of cookware. This offers numerous advantages:

▯ Saves time when boiling and frying. ▯ Saves energy. ▯ Easier to care for and clean. Spilled food does not

burn on as quickly.

▯ Heat control and safety – the cooktop increases or

decreases the heat supply as soon as the user changes the setting. The induction element stops the heat supply as soon as the cookware is removed from the element, without having to switch it off first.

Cookware

Only use ferromagnetic cookware for induction cooking, such as:

▯ Cookware made from enameled steel ▯ Cookware made from cast iron ▯ Special induction-compatible cookware made from

stainless steel.

To check whether your cookware is suitable for induction cooking, refer to the section on ~ "Suitability test of cookware".

To achieve a good cooking result, the ferromagnetic area on the base of the pan should match the size of the element. If a element does not detect an item of cookware, try placing it on another element with a smaller diameter.

FP

LQ LQ LQ

FP

FP

If the only element being used is the flexible cooking zone, larger cookware that is particularly suited to this zone can be used. You can read more information on the positioning of the cookware in the Flex Induction Cooking Zone section.

Some induction cookware does not have a fully ferromagnetic base:

▯ If the base of the cookware is only partially

ferromagnetic, only the area that is ferromagnetic will heat up. This may mean that heat will not be distributed evenly. The non-ferromagnetic area may not heat up to a sufficient temperature for cooking.

▯ The ferromagnetic area will also be reduced if the

material of which the base of the cookware is made contains aluminum, for example. This may mean that the cookware will not become sufficiently hot or even that it will not be detected.

Empty pans or pans with a thin base

Do not heat up empty pans, or use pans with a thin base. The cooktop is equipped with an internal safety system. However, an empty pan may heat up so quickly that the "automatic switch off" function may not have time to react and the pan may reach very high temperatures. The pan base could melt and damage the cooktop glass. In this case, do not touch the pan and switch the cooktop off. If the cooktop fails to work after it has cooled down, please contact technical service.

Pan detection

Each element has a lower limit for pan detection. This depends on the diameter of the ferromagnetic area of the cookware and the material of which its base is made. For this reason, you should always use the element that best matches the diameter of the base of the pan.

Unsuitable cookware

Never use adapter plates for induction or cookware made of:

▯ Traditional stainless steel ▯ Glass ▯ Clay ▯ Copper ▯ Aluminum

Properties of the base of the cookware

The material(s) of which the base of the cookware is made can affect the cooking result. Using pots and pans made from materials that distribute heat evenly through them, such as stainless-steel pans with a three-layer base, saves time and energy.

Use cookware with a flat base; if the base of the cookware is uneven, this may impair the heat supply.

No pan or improper size

If no pan is placed on the selected element, or if it is made of unsuitable material or is not the correct size, the power level displayed on the element indicator will flash. Place a suitable pan on the element to stop the flashing. If you take longer than 90 seconds to place a suitable pan on the element, it will automatically turn off.

Cleaning and Maintenance

Daily Cleaning

Notes

▯ Clean only parts listed in manual. ▯ Bosch cleaners have been tested and approved for

use on Bosch appliances. Other recommended cleaners do not constitute an endorsement of a specific brand.

Cleaning the Cooktop

9 WARNING

DO NOT TOUCH SURFACE UNITS OR AREAS NEAR UNITS

Surface units may be hot even though they are dark in color. Areas near surface units may become hot enough to cause burns. During and after use, do not touch, or let clothing or other flammable materials contact surface units or areas near units until they have had sufficient time to cool. Among those areas are the cooktop and surfaces facing the cooktop.

9 CAUTION

Do not use any kind of cleaner on the glass while the surface is hot. The resulting fumes can be hazardous to your health. Heating the cleaner can chemically attack and damage the surface.

Precautions for Long Life and Good Appearance of the Surface

▯ Regular, daily care using the glass ceramic cooktop

cleaner will protect the surface and make it easier to remove food soil and water spots.

▯ The glass ceramic cooking surface is a durable

material resistant to impact but not unbreakable if a pan or other object is dropped on it.

▯ Never cook food directly on the glass. ▯ Avoid placing a wok support ring, trivet or other metal

stand on glass surface.

▯ Do not use the glass surface as a cutting board. ▯ Do not slide cookware across the cooking surface as

it may scratch the surface.

▯ Do not place wet pans on the glass surface.

Care Before Use

Care is easy when preventative steps are taken. For example, apply a small amount of glass ceramic cooktop cleaner (packaged with range) on a daily basis. This provides a protective film that makes it easy to remove water spots or food spatters. The temperature of the cooking surface reduces the protective qualities of this cleaner. It must be reapplied before each use. Use a clean cloth and apply glass ceramic cooktop cleaner before each use to remove dust or metal marks that can occur on the counter level surface between uses.

Daily Cleaning Techniques

9 WARNING

RISK OF BURNS Be extremely careful as the cooking surface is hot. If

using damp sponge or cloth, wait until the cooktop has cooled sufficiently to prevent steam burns. Also, some cleaners give off noxious fumes when applied to hot surfaces.

Clean the surface when it is completely cool with glass

ceramic cooktop cleaner.

Exception: Remove dry sugar, sugar syrup, tomato

products and milk with the razor blade scraper once

the cooktop has sufficiently cooled. See Cooktop Care

Chart on the next page.

Wipe off spatters with a clean, damp sponge or a

paper towel. Rinse and dry. Use white vinegar if

smudge remains; rinse.

Apply a small amount of the glass ceramic cooktop

cleaner. When dry, buff surface with a clean paper

towel or cloth.

Using the Razor Blade Scraper

Use the scraper to remove dried or baked on foods. Wait until the cooktop has cooled sufficiently. Hold the scraper at a 30° angle. Move it over the soil to lift it off of the cooktop. Finish with a clean, damp sponge or paper towel. Apply white vinegar if smudge remains and rinse.

9 WARNING

RISK OF INJURY The blade is extremely sharp. Risk of cuts. Protect

the blade when not in use. Replace the blade immediately when any imperfections are found. Follow manufacturer’s instructions.

Cleaning the Control Knobs

Pull out and off to remove knobs. Wipe with hot, soapy cloth. Rinse and dry. Do not soak.

To replace, push knob straight onto shaft.

Avoid these cleaners

▯ Glass cleaners which contain ammonia or chlorine

bleach. These ingredients may damage or

permanently stain the cooktop.

▯ Caustic cleaners such as Easy Off® may stain the

cooktop surface.

Cleaning guidelines

When using a cleaner, use only a small amount; apply to a clean paper towel or cloth. Wipe on the surface and buff with a clean dry towel.

For best results, use a glass cooktop cleaner such as the Bosch Glass Cooktop Cleaner (part number 12010030), which can be ordered online at www.bosch-home.com/ us/store (for U.S. customers only). Other cleaners include Bon Ami®, Soft Scrub® (without bleach), and

▯ Abrasive cleaners. ▯ Metal scouring pads and scrub sponges such as

Scotch Brite® can scratch and/or leave metal marks.

▯ Soap-filled scouring pads such as SOS® can scratch

the surface.

▯ Powdery cleaners containing chlorine bleach can

permanently stain the cooktop.

▯ Flammable cleaners such as lighter fluid or WD-40.

white vinegar.

Cleaning charts

Type of Soil Possible Solution Dry sugar, sugar syrup, milk or tomato spills. Melted

plastic film or foil. All these items require removal after the cooktop has sufficiently cooled. Be extremely careful as the cooking surface is hot. Failure to remove these can permanently damage the surface.

Remove these types of spills after the surface has sufficiently cooled using the razor blade scraper. Use a new, sharp razor in the scraper. Remove pan and turn off the element. Wearing an oven mitt, hold scraper at 30° angle, using care not to gouge or scratch the glass. Push soil off the heated area. After the surface has cooled, remove the residue and apply the glass ceramic cooktop cleaner.

9 WARNING

RISK OF INJURY The blade is extremely sharp. Risk of cuts. Protect

the blade when not in use. Replace the blade immediately when any imperfections are found. Follow manufacturer’s instructions.

Burned-on food soil, dark streaks, and specks Soften by laying a damp paper towel or sponge on top of

soil for 30 minutes. Use a plastic scrubber and glass ceramic cooktop cleaner or use the razor blade scraper. Rinse and dry.

Greasy spatters Use a soapy sponge or cloth to remove grease; rinse

thoroughly and dry. Apply glass ceramic cooktop cleaner.

Metal marks: Iridescent stain Pans with aluminum, copper or stainless steel bases may

leave marks. Treat immediately after surface has cooled with glass ceramic cooktop cleaner. If this does not remove the marks, try a mild abrasive (Bon Ami®, Soft Scrub® without bleach) with a damp paper towel. Rinse and reapply glass ceramic cooktop cleaner. Failure to remove metal marks before the next heating makes removal very difficult.

Type of Soil Possible Solution Hard water spots:

Hot cooking liquids dripped on surface

Surface scratches:

Small scratches are common and do not affect cooking. They become smoother and less noticeable with daily use of the glass ceramic cooktop cleaner.

Minerals in some water can be transferred onto the surface and cause stains. Use undiluted white vinegar, rinse and dry. Recondition with glass ceramic cooktop cleaner. Remove boilovers and stains before using the cooktop again.

Apply glass ceramic cooktop cleaner before using to remove sand-like grains and grit such as salt and seasoning. Scratches can be reduced by using pans with bases that are smooth, clean, and dry before use. Use recommended glass ceramic cooktop cleaner daily.

NOTE: Diamond rings may scratch the surface.

Maintenance

This appliance requires no maintenance other than daily cleaning. For best results, apply cooktop cleaning cream daily.

Display Symbols

Door Lock- Is displayed when the oven

door is locked.

Your new oven combines premium cooking results and simple operation.

The oven design has been optimized to improve heat distribution in the oven cavity. The result is even browning, shorter cooking times and lower energy consumption.

Thanks to the Self Clean mode, hours of scrubbing into the darkest corners of the oven is a thing of the past. The oven burns off soil simply and easily. All that is left to do is to remove a few ashes from the oven when Self Clean is done.

Clear labeling of the touch pads makes operating the oven very easy. This manual includes all instructions for operating the oven.

Please call us if you ever have any questions. Our telephone number is located at the beginning of this manual. We welcome your comments and suggestions.

The oven includes time functions that require the current time to be set. It is therefore important to set the clock before beginning to use the oven. The oven cannot be in a cooking mode to access the clock set mode.

To set the clock:

The oven must be in Standby mode (oven is powered

on, but no cooking mode or timer in operation).

To access the clock set mode:

Press the Settings button. The display shows “SET

CLOCK”. Press Enter to edit the clock.

Use the numeric keypad to enter the desired time.

Each number pressed is entered at the right and

moving previously entered digits to the left. To set

“12:45 pm”, press 1,2,4,5.

When the desired time is entered, set the time by

pressing Enter.

The clock is now set and running.

Setting the Cooking Mode and Temperature

There are two alternate methods to set cooking mode and temperature.

To set the Cooking Mode first, then the temperature:

Press the desired Cooking Mode button. The cooking mode and default temperature are displayed. The temperature flashes to show it can be edited.

Press Enter to start the mode using the default temperature.

To change the temperature, enter the new temperature using the numeric buttons. For example, changing temperature to 375°. Press Enter to set the updated temperature.

Note: The new temperature is automatically set after 10 seconds if Enter is not pressed.

Preheating starts.

To set the Temperature first and then the Cooking Mode (not for Broil or Convection Broil):

Press the numeric keys to enter the desired

temperature setting. The temperature entered is

displayed beside the current time.

temperature entered. If no cooking mode is selected

within 5 seconds of setting the temperature, an error

tone sounds and a “SELECT MODE” message is

displayed and blinks.

Press a Mode Selection button to select a cooking

mode.

The new mode and temperature set automatically after

10 seconds if Enter is not pressed.

Note: If a temperature is entered that is not within the allowed range for the mode, an error tone will sound and the lower part of the screen will display “TEMP NOT ALLOWED”.
