ELECTRONIC OVEN CONTROL GUIDE

NOTE: The basic timer is externally arranged in different configuration in various appliance models. This does not change the way it operates.

NOTE: Some models have a touch pad control. To activate it, you just have to touch the pad with a finger. Take care to have a good contact between the finger and the touch pad. Long nails can make the activation difficult. It is a good idea to clean the control panel after each use or as soon as possible after a spill, boil over or spatter because some ionic or salty ingredients as ketchup, tomatoes sauce, etc. can operate the control. Before cleaning the control panel it is

recommended to turn on the control lockout feature.
