Cycles Guide

Use flat-bottomed cookware for best cooking results and energy
efficiency. The cookware should be about the same size as the
cooking area outlined on the cooktop. Cookware should not
extend more than 1/2" (1.3 cm) outside the area.
Home Canning
Canning can be performed on a glass smooth top cooking surface
or traditional coil element cooktop. When canning for long periods,
alternate the use of surface cooking areas or elements between
batches. This allows time for the most recently used areas to cool.
■ Center the canner on the largest surface cooking area or
element. On electric cooktops, canners should not extend
more than 1/2" (1.3 cm) beyond the surface cooking area or
element.
■ Do not place canner on 2 surface cooking areas or elements at
the same time.
■ On ceramic glass models, use only flat-bottomed canners to
avoid damage to the cooktop and elements.
■ For more information, contact your local agricultural extension
office, or refer to published home canning guides. Companies
that manufacture home canning products can also offer
assistance.
OVEN USE
Odors and smoke are normal when the oven is used the first few
times or when it is heavily soiled.
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.

Demo Mode
IMPORTANT: This feature is intended for use on the sales floor
with 120 V power connection and permits the control features to
be demonstrated without heating elements turning on. If this
feature is activated, the oven will not work.
To change: Press OFF/CANCEL, OFF/CANCEL, the Temp/Time
“up” arrow keypad, TIMER SET•OFF. Repeat to change back and
end Demo mode.
Oven Temperature Control
IMPORTANT: Do not use a thermometer to measure oven
temperature. Elements will cycle on and off as needed to provide
consistent temperature but may run slightly hot or cool at any
point in time due to this cycling. Most thermometers are slow to
react to temperature change and will not provide an accurate
reading due to this cycling.
The oven provides accurate temperatures; however, it may cook
faster or slower than your previous oven, so the temperature can
be adjusted to personalize it for your cooking needs. It can be
changed in Fahrenheit or Celsius.
To Adjust Oven Temperature:
1. Press and hold the Temp/Time “down” arrow keypad for 5
seconds until the oven display shows the current setting, for
example “0°F CAL” or “00”.
2. Press the Temp/Time “up” or “down” arrow keypad to increase
or decrease the temperature in 5°F (3°C) amounts. The
adjustment can be set between 30°F (18°C) and -30°F (-18°
C).
3. Press START.
Sabbath Mode (on some models)
For guidance on usage and a complete list of models with
Sabbath mode, visit www.star-k.org.
The Sabbath mode sets the oven to remain on in a Bake setting
until turned off.
The Oven Control Lockout feature will be disabled during the
Sabbath mode. After the Sabbath mode is set, no tones will
sound, the display will not show the temperature, the Kitchen
Timer mode will be canceled (if active), and only the following
keypads will function:
■ Temp/Time “up” and “down” arrow keypads
■ Off/Cancel
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.
When power is restored after a power failure, the oven will return
to Sabbath mode and remain Sabbath compliant with the bake
elements OFF until the OFF/CANCEL keypad is pressed.
Pressing the OFF/CANCEL keypad at any time returns the oven
to the normal cooking mode (not Sabbath compliant).
Before entering the Sabbath mode, it must be decided if the oven
light is to be ON or OFF for the entire Sabbath mode period. If the
light is ON when entering Sabbath mode, it will remain ON for the
entire time Sabbath mode is in use. If the light is OFF when
entering Sabbath mode, it will remain OFF for the entire time
