Oven Operation Oven Racks and Supports Preheating the Oven Three chrome-plated oven racks are provided. Always remember to position the racks prior to heating the oven. Also, remove the oven racks prior to self-cleaning to prevent permanent discoloration of the racks. The porcelain rack supports provide six (6) heights for positioning of the oven racks. To install a rack, align the left and right edges of the rack with the horizontal guide rails of the rack supports, then slide the rack into the oven. Oven Rack Positions Oven Mode Selection Follow these steps to operate the oven modes: 1. Position the oven rack(s) at the proper height(s). 2. Press the touch pad for the modes of your choice. The oven will beep once, the selected cooking mode will flash and "- - -" will be displayed. 3. Press either the + or - pad. The default temperature will be displayed. 4. To adjust the default temperature for baking, press and hold the TIME•TEMP pad. Press the + pad to increase the temperature setting, - to decrease. "PRE" and "ON" will appear in the clock display, and the oven will begin to heat. If in a convection mode, the convection fan will turn on. Also, the clock display will change from the desired cooking temperature to the actual oven temperature, starting with 135˚F. The temperature display will increase in 5˚F increments until the desired temperature is reached. NOTE: Do not place food inside the oven until the preheat cycle is complete. When the desired temperature is attained, the preheat cycle is complete. The clock will beep once and "PRE" and "ON" will disappear from the display. (From this time forward, the "ON" display will cycle on and off with the heating elements). 5. Carefully place the food onto the desired rack(s) within the preheated oven. 6. It is recommended that a minute timer be set to time the cooking process. 7. When the time expires and/or the food is done cooking, press the CANCEL•SECURE pad to turn off the oven. The oven features an automatic preheat cycle that rapidly brings the oven chamber up to temperature. When choosing a cooking mode and setting a temperature, the oven will automatically perform the preheat function. The preheat cycle operates in Standard Bake, Pure Convection and Convection Bake modes. There is no preheat cycle for the Broil mode. NOTE: Allowing the oven to completely pre-heat prior to placing food in the oven will avoid excessive browning of the food. After the oven signals that the pre-heat is complete, allow 3-5 more minutes for the heat patterns to normalize in the oven and then place your food inside. Using the Minute Timers The clock features two timers that may be used to time cooking or other processes up to 11 hours, 50 minutes in length. To use the Minute Timer function, follow these steps: 1. Press the touch pad labeled "TIMER 1" or "TIMER 2." The clock will display "00:00" and "TIMER 1" or "TIMER 2" will flash. 2. Press the + pad until the desired time is displayed on the clock. 3. After timer 1 has expired, the clock will sound off with one second beeps and "TIMER 1" will appear in the display. After the timer 2 minute timer has expired, the clock will sound alternating one and two second beeps and "TIMER 2" will appear in the display. The beeper can be silenced by pressing the TIMER touch pad while the beeper is sounding. IMPORTANT: Cancellation of the minute timer does not turn off the oven if it is operating. You must manually shut the oven off by pressing the CANCEL•SECURE touch pad. NOTES: • To view the current time of day, rather than the remaining time on the minute timer, press the CLOCK touch pad. To change back to a minute timer display, press the TIMER 1 or TIMER 2 touch pad. • To cancel the minute timer while in progress, press the TIMER 1 or TIMER 2 touch pad two times. The clock display will return to the time of day. • The minute timers may be used at the same time as Delay Timed Cooking or Self-Clean. • The minute timers will beep for 2 minutes (if not cancelled) before automatically shutting off. • Pressing the CANCEL•SECURE pad when the beeper is sounding will cancel both the beeper and the cooking function. 5
