SETTING THE CLOCK AND MINUTE TIMER
To Set the Clock

You must set the clock when the oven isfirst plugged in or each time the power supply to the appliance has been disconnected or interrupted.
The clock must a/ways be set to the correct time of day, as the automatic start and stop time operations (used to set the timed bake and
self-clean modes) work directly with the clock.

1. The display window will flash the last clock time displayed before the power was interrupted.

2 Push the CLOCK pad The indicator word "Time" will flash and AM or PM and time digits will appear in the display

3. Push the UP (A) or DOWN (T) ARROW pad until the correct time of day appears in the display.

NOTE: If more than 10 seconds elapse between pushing the CLOCK pad and pushing the UP (A) or DOWN (T) ARROW pad, the CLOCK
pad must be pushed again in order to set the clock.

NOTE: Three seconds after this procedure, the time of day will automatically be entered. Once the time is set, the AM or PM indicators will
not show unless the CLOCK pad is pushed. The clock time cannot be changed when the oven has been programmed for Time Bake, Timed
Convection or Self-clean. Cancel these programs before reprogramming clock.

To change the time, follow instructions 2 & 3 above.

To Set the Minute Timer

The timer does not control the oven. It serves as an extra timer in the kitchen that will beep when the set time has

run out. The timer can be used independently during any of the oven functions and can be set for any amount of
time from 5 seconds to 11 hours and 50 minutes.

1. Push TIMER ON/OFF pad. ":00" appears in the display and the word "TIMER" will flash.

CONVECTION COOKING AND BAKING:

Air circulation during convection

cooking.

The convection option is an additional feature to the regular oven cooking methods of baking and

broiling. Instructions for using the convection option are included in this the instructions for setting

the oven controls.

Convection cooking is a method of cooking in which the heated air of the oven is circulated by a fan
at the rear of the oven cavity. This fan is covered by a baffle to circulate the air uniformly,, providing
even heat distribution for faster and more even cooking, baking and browning. The heated air
penetrates food from every angle, sealing in natural moisture and flavors. The convection fan

automatically turns off when the oven door is opened and resumes when the door is closed again.
However, the heating element will stay on.

The oven can be programmed to bake in the convection mode at any temperature from 140°F/60°C
to 550°F/288°C. Preheating the oven for 10-12 minutes is recommended when using convection, but

is not necessary when roasting or cooking casseroles. Follow the recommendations in the recipe.

In several cases, depending on the texture and consistency of the food, the temperature normally used in conventional cooking should be
reduced by 25°F/12°C for convection cooking. Your oven will automatically control the temperature 25°F/12°C lower than the set temperature
when convection mode is selected. For example, when the oven temperature is set at 350°F/177°C, actual oven temperature will controlled

at 325°F/163°C if the convection mode has been selected.

MANUALLY OPERATED OVEN COOKING:

To Regular Bake or Convection Bake/Roast

The oven can be programmed to bake at any temperature from 140°F/60°C to 550°F/288°C.

Preheating the oven is recommended when baking, but is not necessary when roasting or cooking

casseroles. Follow the recommendations in the recipe.

1.Arrange oven racks while the oven isstill cool.

2. Pushthe BAKEpad or CONVBAKE/ROASTpad. ___ °" and the word "BAKE" or "CONV BAKE"
will glow in the display.

3. Pushthe UP (A) or DOWN (v) ARROWpad until desired baking temperature appears in the display.
When setting the baking temperature, the temperature will start at 325°H163°C and increase or

decrease in increments of 5°H2.5°C.

After 3 seconds the oven will begin to preheat. The display will show the words "ON ", "PRE" and either

"BAKE" or CONV. BAKE/ROAST". The temperature shown will be 140°F/60°C or the actual oven

temperature, whichever is higher.

During preheating, the display will show a rise in 5°F/2.5°C increments until the programmed
temperature is reached. When the oven is preheated, the oven control will beep, and turn the "ON"
and "PRE" indicators words will go off. Only the word "BAKE" or "CONV BAKE" and the programmed
oven temperature is displayed. The word "ON" will appear again in the display whenever the bake
element is heating.

Note: Preheating will take approximately 5 to 9 minutes. The word "PRE" will not appear if the actual
oven temperature is within 100°F/50°C of the set temperature. There will be no beep if the "PRE"

indicator word was not shown.

4. When cooking is finished, push the CANCEL pad to turn off oven.

Torecall the set temperature during preheat, push the appropriate BAKE pad or CONV BAKE/

DELAYED START."

_Use caution when using the automatic timer. Use the automatic timer to cook cured or frozen meats and most fruits and
vegetables. Foods that can easily spoil, such as milk, eggs, fish, meat or poultry should be chilled in the refrigerator first. Even when chilled,

they should not stand in the oven for more than 2 hours before cooking begins, and should be removed promptly when cooking is
competed.

To Set the Oven for a Delayed Starting Time and an Automatic Turn-Off

To set the controls for this type of operation, follow steps !-6 above and then steps 7-8 below:

7. Push the STOP TIMEpad. The words "OVEN .... STOP" and "TIME" will flash. The display will show

the calculated stop time based on current time of day and cook time. A number indicating which oven
is being programmed will also flash (1- upper oven, 2- lower oven).

8. Push the UP (A) or DOWN (T) ARROWpad until the time that you want cooking to be completed
appears in the display.

Example: If at 10 o'clock you set the oven for 350°F/177°C temperature and 2 hours and 30 minutes
cooking time, the calculated stop time would be "12:30". If you want the stop time to be 1 o'clock,

push STOP TIMEpad and the UP (A)ARROWpad until "1:00" appears in the display. Three seconds
after this setting, the display will return to the current time of day.

The oven will calculate back from the stop time by 2 hours and 30 minutes to start the oven at 10:30.

Until the time of day reaches 10:30, the word "DELAY" will show in the display. At the end of the
delayed period, the word "DELAY" will go off and the oven will begin to heat. The word "PRE" will
not appear in the display. As the oven heats, the display will show a rise in increments of 5°F/2.5°C until
the programmed temperature is reached.

At the end of the programmed cook time, the oven will turn off automatically and beep 3 times.

To recall time function programmed, push the appropriate time pad.

To cancel timed function only, hold the BAKE TIME pad for 3 seconds. This cancels only the cook
time and stop time, not the programmed bake mode.

NOTE: Clock controlled baking can be used with both ovens simultaneously. However, cook time and
stop time will be the same for both ovens. One oven may also be used for regular baking or convection
baking/roasting while the other oven is in the clock controlled mode.

NOTE: If one oven is set for clock controlled baking, the other oven cannot be set for self-cleaning.

Note: Baking can be stopped at any

time by pushing the CANCEL pad.

Note: Clock controlled cooking is

not recommended for baking items
that require a preheated oven. For
these items, preheat the oven and

then set the timed cooking function.

Food continues to cook if left in the

oven. For best results, remove the
food as soon as beeps signal the

end of the cooking time.

Note: If more than 10 seconds

elapse between pushing a pad and

pushing the UP (A) or DOWN (v)
ARROWpad, the oven is not set

and the display window will show
the previous display.

TO BROIL

Broiling is a quick method of cooking foods by direct radiant heat under the upper broiling element of the oven. Results and cooking times

will depend on the distance between the food and the element. To broil, follow the steps below.

PREHEATING

Preheating is suggested when searing rare steaks. Remove the broiler pan and grid before preheating. Foods placed on the hot metal will stick.
Set the oven control. Wait for upper element to become red hot, usually about 2-3 minutes. Preheating isnot necessary when broiling meats

well done.

BROILING

1. Remove broiler pan and grid.

2. Place the grid on the broiler pan (if it has been disassembled), and then the meat on the cool broiler
grid. Be sure the grid is in place with the slots down so grease will drain into the pan. DO NOT use

the broiler pan without the grid or cover the grid with aluminum foil. The exposed fat could ignite.

3. Select the desired rack position and slide the broiler pan into place. For rare meats, position the broiler
pan closer to the element (upper position). For well-done foods such as chicken, lobster tails or thick

cuts of meat, position the pan further from the element (lower position).

4. Push the BROIL pad. " _ _ _ °'' will glow and the word "BROIL" will flash in the display.

NOTE: If more than 10 seconds elapses between pushing BROIL pad and UP (A) or DOWN(T)
ARROWpad, the oven is not set and the display will return to the previous display.

5. Push the UP (A) ARROWpad briefly. The display will show HI. The oven has a Variable broil feature

which means that a lower temperature can be selected. Push the DOWN (T) ARROWpad to lower
the temperature in 5°F/2.5°C increments. Three seconds after setting the oven controls, the broiler

element will come on and the words "BROIL" and "ON" will remain in the display. If the Variable broil
feature was selected, the word "ON" will cycle on and off with the heating element.

6. Place the broiler pan in the oven. Leave the door open at the broil stop position. The door will

stay open in this position. Broil element will preheat in 2 to 3 minutes. If preheat is recommended,
wait for the broil element to become red, then place food in oven.

7. When cooking is finished, push the CANCEL pad.

Broiltimes vary, sowatch food closely. Time depends on the distance from the element, thickness and
aging of meat, fat content and doneness preferred. The first side usually requires afew minutes longer
than the second side. Frozen meats also require additional time.

OVEN CLEANING

The oven can be programmed to begin cleaning immediately and stop at a later time automatically,
or to start at a delayed time and stop automatically

To Start the Self-Clean Cycle

*To assure satisfactory results, we recommend a 2 hour self-clean cycle for lightsoils, a 2 1/2 - 3 hour

cycle for average soils, and a 4 hour cycle for heavy soils.

To Begin Cleaning Immediately and Stop Automatically:

1. Make sure the clock is set to the correct time of day as the self-clean operation works directly with
the clock.

2. Close the oven door.

3. Push the CLEAN pad for the oven to be cleaned. The words "CLEAN" and "TIME" will flash and
"-HR-:-" will appear in the display. A number indicating which oven isbeing programmed will also

flash (1- upper oven, 2- lower oven).

4. Push the UP (A) or DOWN (T) ARROWpaduntil the desired cleaning time appears in the display.
"2Hr:30" will show in the display at first. Set the cleaning time based on the amount of soil you

have. For an oven with average soil, "2Hr:30" is correct. The time will increase or decrease in 5
minute increments.

Three seconds after the controls are set, the motor driven lock will begin to close and the cleaning
cycle will begin. It takes about 15 seconds for the door to completely lock. The word "LOCK" and

"ON" will appear in the display. The door cannot be opened after the oven temperature reaches
560°F (293°C). When the oven reaches cleaning temperature, the "ON" indicator will cycle on and

off with the element. Push the CANCEL pad before opening the door. The door cannot be opened
until the oven temperature is below 560°F (293°C) and the "LOCK" indicator goes off. See

"Stopping or Interrupting a Self-Clean Cycle".

NOTE: If the oven door was left open, after 2 minutes "F8" appears in the display and a signal beeps
continously. Close the door and push both the upper and lower oven CANCEL pads. The door will
then lock and unlock immediately after.

To Start at a Later Time and Stop Automatically:

1. Follow steps 1-4 above:

2. Push STOP TIMEpad. "CLEAN", "STOP" and "TIME" will flash in the display.

3. Push the UP (A) ARROWpad until the time that you want cleaning to be completed appears in

display. A stop time can be accepted only for a later time.

4. The control will calculate backward from the set stop time to determine when the cleaning cycle

should begin. "DELAY" will glow in the display. To see the time that the oven will come on, push
and hold the CLEAN pad for 3 seconds. The calculated start time will appear in the display for

a few seconds.

The clean cycle will come on automatically at the calculated time. At that time, the word "DELAY"
and "ON" will go out.

The oven will heat to a very high temperature. Soil and spillovers will burn off of the oven surfaces.

Do not try to open the oven door without cancelling the cleaning cycle. The word "LOCKED" will

remain in the display until the oven cools below 560°F (293°C) and the door has unlocked. Only then

can the door be opened.

Stopping or Interrupting the Self-Cleaning Cycle

1. Push the CANCEL pad.

2. If the word "LOCK" remains in the display, the oven is too hot to open the door. Once the oven

cools below 560°F (293°C), the word "LOCK" will go out. If the self-clean cycle was interrupted
due to smoke or fire, correct the condition and start the self-clean operation again.

3. When cycle is completed, a powdery ash will be found wherever there was heavy soil. Wipe away

residue with a damp cloth after the oven has cooled.

If the oven was not satisfactorily cleaned, the cleaning time was not long enough. Reset the controls
and repeat the self-cleaning cycle.
