Setting Oven Controls 17 Dehydrating Bread proofing This mode dries foods with heat from the bake and the convection element. The heat is circulated throughout the oven by the convection fan. Dehydrating is used to dry and/or preserve foods such as fruits, meats, vegetables and herbs. This mode holds an optimum low temperature while circulating the heated air to slowly remove moisture. The oven can be programmed for Dehydrating at any temperature between 100°F to 225°F with a default temperature of 120°F. Dehydrating Tips • Do not preheat the oven. • Multiple racks can be used simultaneously. • Drying times vary depending on the moisture and sugar content of the food, the size of the pieces, the amount being dried and the humidity in the air. • Check food at the minimum drying time. • Treat fruits with antioxidants to avoid discoloration. • Consult a food preservation book or a library for additional information. To set a Dehydrate Temperature of 120°F 1. Arrange interior oven racks and place food. 2. Select oven by pressing either UPPER OVEN or LOWER OVEN. 3. Press DEHYDRATE. 4. Press START to begin dehydrating. 5. Remove food. Always use oven mitts when removing hot pans from the oven. 6. Press CANCEL to stop or cancel the Dehydrate feature at any time. Proofing bread prepares the dough for baking by activating the yeast. This feature is ideal for proofing, or rising bread dough. The oven can be programmed for Bread Proofing at any temperature between 85°F to 100°F with a default temperature of 100°F. Bread Proofing Tips • No need to preheat for this feature. • Proof bread until dough has doubled in bulk. • For best results, place a shallow pan with 1 to 3 cups of boiling hot water on the lowest rack position to keep the air moist inside the oven cavity. • Allow at least 1" between edge of pan and walls of the oven. • Limit frequent door openings to prevent losing heat and lengthening proofing time. To set a Bread Proof 1. Arrange interior oven racks and place bread dough in the oven. 2. Select oven by pressing either UPPER OVEN or LOWER OVEN. 3. Press BREAD PROOF. 4. Press START to begin the bread proofing. 5. The Cook Time, Timer and End Time features can be set to control your Bread Proof time (read their sections for directions). 6. Remove food. 7. Press CANCEL to stop or cancel the Bread Proof feature at any time. To change a Bread Proof temperature while the function is active: 1. Select oven by pressing either UPPER OVEN or LOWER OVEN. 2.
