SETTING OVEN CONTROLS
Setting the Sabbath Feature (for use on the Jewish
Sabbath and Holidays)
For further assistance, guidelines for proper
usage, and a complete list of models with the
Sabbath feature, please visit the web at
www.star-k.org.
This appliance provides special settings for
use when observing the Jewish Sabbath/Holidays. Sabbath
mode disables all audible tones or visual display changes
on the oven control. Bake is the only cooking feature avail
-
able while in the Sabbath mode. Oven controls are locked
during Sabbath mode.
You must first set the Bake feature and temperature(s)
needed for the oven and Delay Start options (if needed).
Any settings made prior to setting the Sabbath mode will be
visible in the displays.
The Sabbath mode will override the factory preset 12 hour
energy saving mode, and the appliance will stay on until the
cooking features are canceled. If any of the cooking
features are canceled when the appliance is in the Sabbath
mode, no audible or visual indicators will be available to
verify the cancellation.
If the oven interior lights are needed, be sure to activate
them prior to setting the Sabbath mode. Once the oven light
is turned on and the Sabbath mode is active, the oven light
will remain on until the Sabbath mode is turned off and the
oven lights are turned off. The oven door will not activate
the interior oven lights when the oven door is opened or
closed.
It is recommended that any oven temperature modification
made within an active Sabbath mode be followed with two
presses of the OK/START key. This will insure the oven
remains on even if an attempt is made to set the oven
temperature outside of its temperature range.
If the oven temperature is set outside of the temperature
range, the oven will default to the nearest available temper
-
ature. Try to set the desired oven temperature again.
.
Important:
• Do not attempt to activate any other oven function
except Bake while the Sabbath feature is active. The
following keys will function correctly when the Sabbath
feature is active: 0-9 number keypad, Bake, OK/START,
and OFF. All other keys should not be used once the
Sabbath feature is active.
• You may change the oven temperature once baking has
started. Press Bake, use the numeric keypad to enter
the oven temperature change (170°F to 550F°), and
press OK/START (for Jewish Holidays only).
• Remember that the oven control will no longer provide
audible tones or display any further changes when the
Sabbath feature is active.
• The oven will remain on until canceled and therefore
may only be used once during the Sabbath/Jewish
Holidays.
• If a delay start time longer than 11 hours and 59
minutes is desired, set the oven control for the 24 hour
day display mode setting. See
“Setting 12 Hour or 24
Hour display mode” on page 18 for more information.
Food poisoning hazard. Do not let food sit for more than
one hour before or after cooking. Doing so can result in
food poisoning or sickness. 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 1 hour before cooking
begins, and should be removed promptly when finished
cooking.
