Control Lock The Control Lock shuts down the control panel pads to prevent unintended use of the oven. When the control is locked, only the CLOCK SET, OVEN LIGHT (on some models) and TIMER pads will function. To Lock/Unlock Control: Before locking, make sure the oven and Timer are off. Press and hold "Lock" key for 5 seconds. A single tone will sound and "Loc" will appear on the display. Repeat to unlock. "Loc" will disappear from the display. 12-Hour Shut-Off Styles 1, 2 & 3 - Electronic Oven Controls The oven control is set to automatically shut off the oven 12 hours after the oven turns on. This will not interfere with any timed or delayed cook function. Style 1 - Electronic Oven Control The 12 hour shutoff feature may be turned off on Style 1 electronic oven controls. To Set: Press and hold DELAY for 5 seconds. 12 HR SHUT-OFF ON will appear on the display. Press and hold DELAY again for 5 seconds to turn off. Oven Temperature Control IMPORTANT: Do not use a thermometer to measure oven temperature because opening the oven door may cause burner cycling to give incorrect readings. The oven provides accurate temperatures; however, it may cook faster or slower than your previous oven, so the temperature calibration can be adjusted. It can be changed in Fahrenheit or Celsius. A minus sign means the oven will be cooler by the displayed amount. No sign means the oven will be warmer by the displayed amount. Use the following chart as a guide. ADJUSTMENT °F (ADJUSTMENT °C) COOKS FOOD 10°F (5°C) ...a little more 20°F (10°C) ...moderately more 30°F (15°C) ...much more -10°F (-5°C) ...a little less -20°F (-10°C) ...moderately less -30°F (-15°C) ...much less To Adjust Oven Temperature Calibration: Style 1 - Electronic Oven Control 1.

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. Aluminum Foil IMPORTANT: Do not line the oven bottom with any type of foil, liners or cookware because permanent damage will occur to the oven bottom finish. s Do not cover entire rack with foil because air must be able to move freely for best cooking results. s To catch spills, place foil on rack below dish. Make sure foil is at least 1" (2.5 cm) larger than the dish and that it is turned up at the edges. 13
