Button Lock

Sabbath Mode

The Button Lock shuts down the control panel keypads to avoid unintended use of the oven(s). The Button Lock will remain set after a power failure if it was set before the power failure occurs. When the control is locked, only the Power keypad will function.

The Button Lock is preset unlocked but can be locked.

To Activate the Button Lock:

1. From the Tools menu, touch BUTTON LOCK.

2. Touch LOCK to activate the Button Lock mode. NOTE: The touch screen will return to idle mode and a control

locked message will be displayed.

Oven Temperature Control

IMPORTANT: Do not use a thermometer to measure the oven temperature. Elements will cycle on and off as needed to maintain a consistent temperature but may run slightly hot or cool at any point in time due to this cycling. Opening the oven door will affect cycling of the elements and impact the temperature.

The oven provides accurate temperatures and has been thoroughly tested at the factory. However, it may cook faster or slower than your previous oven, causing baking or browning differences. If necessary, the temperature calibration can be adjusted in either Fahrenheit or Celsius.

On double ovens, the upper oven and the lower oven can each be calibrated independently.

A minus sign means the oven will be cooler by the displayed amount. The absence of a minus sign means the oven will be warmer by the displayed amount. Use the following chart as a guide.

NOTE: The oven display will continue to show the original set temperature and will not reflect the calibration offset. For example, if set to 350° (177°C) and calibrated to -20, the display will continue to show 350° (177°C).

ADJUSTMENT °F (AUTOMATIC °C CHANGE)

10°F (6°C) ...a little more 20°F (12°C) ...moderately more 30°F (18°C) ...much more 0°F (0°C) default setting

-10°F (-6°C) ...a little less

-20°F (-12°C) ...moderately less

-30°F (-18°C) ...much less

COOKS FOOD

The Sabbath Mode sets the oven(s) to remain on in a bake setting until turned off. A timed Sabbath Mode can also be set to keep the oven on for only part of the Sabbath.

When the Sabbath Mode is set, the allowed keypads are the Power keypad and the Cancel keypads.

When the oven door is opened or closed, the oven light will not turn on or off, and the heating elements will not turn on or off immediately.

If a power failure less than 1 second occurs when the Sabbath Mode is set, the oven(s) will remain in Sabbath Mode and continue cooking.

For a power failure that lasts greater than a few seconds, the oven(s) will return to an idle state and Sabbath mode will no longer be active. For double ovens, the upper and lower oven temperatures and cook timers can be set independently. If a cook timer is set, the countdown will not appear. The timer will appear frozen at the set time.

To Activate:

1. Touch the Power keypad, and then touch TOOLS.

2. From the Mode menu, select “Sabbath” and touch NEXT.

3. Touch ON, and then touch SETUP. NOTE: The programmed status of the oven(s) will be

The oven temperatures can be changed while running Sabbath Mode by touching the -25° F (-5°C) or +25°F (+5° C). Touching these buttons will not result in any changes to the screen and no sound will play.

As an example, touching the +25°F (+5° C) button 3 times will result in an oven cavity temperature increase of +75° F (+15° C); however, the initial oven cavity set temperature will remain on the screen.

NOTE: On double oven models, the oven cavity temperature may be set individually.

Oven Use

Odors and smoke are normal when the oven is used the first few times or when it is heavily soiled.

During oven use, the heating elements will not remain on but will cycle on and off throughout oven operation.

IMPORTANT: The health of some birds is extremely sensitive to the fumes given off. Exposure to the fumes may result in death to certain birds. Always move birds to another closed and well-ventilated room.

If the oven door is opened during a cooking mode and left open for approximately 60 seconds, the cooling fan will switch to a higher speed. You may experience higher noise during this time. When the oven door is closed, the fan will switch back to its lower speed after approximately 60 seconds.

Aluminum Foil

IMPORTANT: To avoid permanent damage to the oven bottom finish, do not line the oven bottom with any type of foil or liner.

■ For best cooking results, do not cover entire rack with foil

because air must be able to move freely.

■ To catch spills, place foil on rack below dish. Make sure

foil is at least ½" (1.3 cm) larger than the dish and that it is turned up at the edges.

Position Racks and Bakeware

IMPORTANT: To avoid permanent damage to the porcelain finish, do not place food or bakeware directly on the oven door or bottom.

Racks

■ Position racks before turning on the oven.

■ Do not position racks with bakeware on them.

Baking and Roasting

IMPORTANT: The convection fan and convection element may operate during the Bake function to enhance performance and heat distribution.

The oven will take approximately 12 to 17 minutes to reach 350°F (177°C) with all oven racks inside the oven cavity. The preheat cycle rapidly increases the temperature inside the oven cavity. Higher temperatures will take longer to preheat. Factors that impact preheat times include room temperature, oven temperature, and the number of racks. Unused oven racks can be removed prior to preheating your oven to help reduce preheat time. The actual oven temperature will go above the set temperature to offset the heat lost when the oven door is opened to insert food. This ensures that the oven will begin at the proper temperature when you place food in the oven. Insert food when the preheat tone sounds. Do not open the door during preheat until the tone sounds.

During baking or roasting, the bake and broil elements will cycle on and off in intervals to maintain the oven temperature.

Depending on the model, if the oven door is opened during baking or roasting, the heating elements (bake and broil) will turn off approximately 30 seconds after the door is opened. They will turn on again approximately 30 seconds after the door is closed.

Broiling

The oven vents should not be blocked or covered since they allow the inlet of fresh air into the cooling system and allows the venting of heated air. Blocking or covering vents will cause poor air circulation, affecting cooking, cleaning, and cooling results.

Preheating and Oven Temperature

Preheating

When beginning a Bake or Convect Bake cycle, the oven begins preheating after Start is pressed. The oven will take approximately 12 to 17 minutes to reach 350°F (177°C) with all of the oven racks provided with your oven inside the oven cavity. Higher temperatures will take longer to preheat. The preheat cycle rapidly increases the oven temperature. The actual oven temperature will go above your set temperature to offset the heat lost when your oven door is opened to insert food. This ensures that when you place your food in the oven, the oven will begin at the proper temperature. Insert your food when the preheat tone sounds. Do not open the door during preheat until the tone sounds.

NOTE: If the cook timer is set and the oven door is opened during preheating, the timer will automatically start.

Oven Temperature

While in use, the oven elements will cycle on and off as needed to maintain a consistent temperature. They may run slightly hot or cool at any point in time due to this cycling. Opening the oven door while in use will release the hot air and cool the oven which could impact the cooking time and performance. It is recommended to use the oven light to monitor cooking progress.

Broiling uses direct radiant heat to cook food. The element cycles on and off in intervals to maintain

the oven temperature.

NOTE: No preheating is required for the Broiling function. IMPORTANT: Close the door to ensure proper broiling

temperature. If the oven door is opened during broiling, the broil element

will turn off in approximately 30 seconds. When the oven door is closed, the element will come back on approximately 30 seconds later.

■ For best results, use a broiler pan and grid. It is designed

to drain juices and help avoid spatter and smoke.

■ For proper draining, do not cover the grid with foil.

The bottom of the broiler pan may be lined with aluminum foil for easier cleaning.

■ Trim excess fat to reduce spattering. Slit the remaining fat

on the edges to avoid curling.

■ Pull out oven rack to stop position before turning or
