Cooking Tips & Instruction Guide

Warm
In Warm, the upper and lower elements maintain a low
temperature in the oven cavity in order to keep food at
serving temperature.
This mode can be used to keep cooked foods warm until
ready to serve. Foods that should be kept moist should
be covered with a lid or with aluminum foil.
Proof
Dough will proof more quickly using Proof mode. It will
also ensure the dough will not dry out. Only start Proof
mode when the oven compartment has fully cooled
down.
Allow yeast dough to proof twice. Use the table for
setting recommendations for both proof processes.
Dough Fermentation
Position the dough bowl on the wire rack. Use the
settings indicated in the table. Do not open the oven
door during the proofing process as moisture will
escape. Do not cover the dough.
Final Fermentation
Place the dough into the oven on the rack level indicated
in the specific cooking charts in the section Steam Oven
Cooking Charts or Conventional Oven Cooking Charts.
Wipe moisture from the oven cavity before baking.
