To set the clock for the actual time the user pref key must first be pressed to bring the oven to the clock mode.
Setting Oven Controls Changing Oven Temperature Display-Fahrenheit (°F) or Celsius (°C) The oven control can be programmed to display temperatures in °F or °C. The oven has been preset at the factory to display in °F To change the temperature display mode: 1. Press user pref key until F-C in display (Figure 14). F appears 2. Use +hi or -lo to toggle between the F or C option. 3. Press START enter to accept. 4. Press CANCEL off to exit the preferences mode.
Setting Oven Controls 13 Timers Interior Oven Lights This unit is equipped with two kitchen timers which serves as extra timers in the kitchen that will chime when the set time has run out. These timers can help timed cooking or food preparation times without interfering with any active cooking process. They do not start or stop cooking. When the time countdown reaches less than 1 minute, the display will show the time remaining in seconds.
Setting Oven Controls FAST PREHEAT The fast preheat feature can be set using the following oven modes: bake, convection bake, and convection roast. When activated, the oven will begin preheating quickly and PRE-HEATING will appear in the display. The minimum temperature shown is 100ºF (38ºC). A tone will sound to indicate the oven has finished preheating and PRE-HEATING will disappear from the display.
Setting Oven Controls 15 BAKE Bake may be set with these options: 1) fast preheat; 2) cook time; or 3) delayed start, achieved through using the cook time and end time settings. If bake is active without a cook time setting, the oven will remain on for 12 hours before turning off automatically unless it is cancelled. To bake longer than 12 hours, see “Changing Between 12-Hour Energy Saving or Continuous Bake Mode Settings” on page 12 for instructions. The meat probe can be used in this mode.
Setting Oven Controls Cook Time Setting Cook Time with End Time Cook time is used when a recipe calls for a specific temperature and cook time. It allows the oven to be set to cook for a set length of time and shut off automatically.The maximum cook time is 11 hours, 59 minutes. This feature can be used with bake, convection bake, convection roast, keep warm, defrost, bread proof, and dehydrate. It can also be part of a multi stage sequence.
Setting Oven Controls 17 Broil Broiling is a method of cooking tender cuts of meat by direct heat under the broil element of the oven. This mode is best for meats, fish, and poultry up to 1" thick. The meat probe cannot be used with this mode. Depending on cooking preferences, you can increase or decrease cooking times or move food to a different rack position. If the food you are broiling is not listed in Table 3 , follow the instructions provided in your cookbook and watch the item closely.
Setting Oven Controls Convection Bake Convection functions use a fan to circulate the oven's heat uniformly and continuously around the oven (Figure 20). This improved heat distribution allows for fast, even baking and browning results. It also gives better baking results when using two oven racks at the same time. Heated air flows around the food from all sides, sealing in juices and flavors. Breads and pastry brown more evenly.
Setting Oven Controls 19 Convection Convert Convection Baking/Convert Tips • Fully preheat the oven before baking items like cookies, biscuits, and breads. • When using any single oven rack, position the rack in the oven so that the food is in the center of the oven. • When baking cakes using two oven racks, place bakeware in positions 6 and 1 (Figure 22) and place pans as shown in Figure 21. • Use positions 6 and 1 for multiple-rack convection baking, position.
Setting Oven Controls Using Convection convert with cook time When convection conversion is used with the cook time feature, CF (check food) will be displayed when 75% of the bake time is complete. The control will chime at regular intervals until CANCEL off is pressed, as a reminder to check the food. When the cook time runs out, the oven will shut off automatically and chime. To set convection convert for 30 minutes at 375°F (191°C): Always use pot holders or oven mitts when using the oven.
Setting Oven Controls 21 Convection Roast To properly arrange food for roasting: Convection roast is best for cooking tender cuts of beef, lamb, pork, and poultry. Heated air circulates around the meat from all sides, gently browning the exterior and sealing in the juices and flavors. Use this mode when cooking speed is desired. Convection roast uses the hidden bake element, the hidden convection element, the broil element, and a fan to circulate the oven’s heat evenly and continuously within the oven.
Setting Oven Controls Convection Roasting tips: • Preheating for convection roast will not be necessary for most meats and poultry. • Arrange oven racks so the food is in the center of the oven. • Since convection roast cooks faster, you can reduce cook times by 25% from the recommended time of your recipe (check the food at this time). Then if needed, increase cook time until the desired doneness is obtained.
Setting Oven Controls 23 Keep Warm 4. Keep warm is best for keeping oven baked foods warm for serving after cooking has finished. It may be set with cook time, cook time/end time, and multi stage. Keep warm uses the hidden bake element to maintain the temperature within the oven. Keep warm will run continuously or (if used with bake time) until the time runs out. Press -lo until the temperature shows 150 on the display. 5. Press START enter. 6.
Setting Oven Controls Meat Probe Tips for Probe Placement When cooking meat such as roasts, hams, or poultry, use the meat probe function to check the internal temperature without guesswork. For some foods, especially poultry and roasts, testing the internal temperature is the best method to ensure properly cooked meats. Your oven will automatically change from cooking to keep warm once the probe has reached the set temperature.

Setting Oven Controls Perfect Turkey™ Perfect turkey uses the meat probe feature with convection roasting to ensure your turkey is cooked perfectly. It displays the internal temperature of the turkey and calculates the amount of cooking time remaining. Heated air circulates around the turkey from all sides, sealing in juices and flavors. Poultry cooked with this feature are crispy brown on the outside while staying moist on the inside.
Setting Oven Controls 27 Setting Defrost Setting Dehydrate Only frozen foods that can be defrosted and served without cooking should be used with this feature.Use defrost to thaw small portions of delicate items such as cream cakes, frozen cream pies, and cheesecake at room temperature. While in the defrost mode, the convection fan will operate to circulate room temperature air around the food slowly, accelerating the natural defrosting of the food without using heat.
Setting Oven Controls Setting Bread Proof Slow Cook The bread proof feature maintains a warm environment useful for rising yeast-leavened products. Bread proof can be set with the following options: cook time or cook time with end time. The following temperature settings apply to the bread proof feature: Slow cook may be used to cook foods more slowly, at lower oven temperatures and provide cooking results much the same way as a slow cooker or crock-pot.
Setting Oven Controls 29 Setting Multi Stage For best results: • Slow cooking meats may result in the outside of the meat turning dark; this is normal. Completely thaw all frozen foods before cooking. • Arrange food in center of oven. Position multiple racks to accommodate size of cooking utensils when baking multiple food items.
