OVEN USE Odors and smoke are normal when the oven is used the first few times or when it is heavily soiled. 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. NOTE: The convection fan will shut off when the oven door is opened. If the oven door remains open for too long, the heating elements will shut off until the oven door is closed. All timers, including any active Cook Time or Timed Cook functions, will continue to count down. Electronic Oven Controls Control Display The display will flash when powered up or after a power loss. Press the Cancel keypad to clear. When oven is not in use, the time of day is displayed. Fahrenheit and Celsius Oven Temperature Control IMPORTANT: Do not use a thermometer to measure oven temperature. Elements will cycle on and off as needed to provide consistent temperature but may run slightly hot or cool at any point in time due to this cycling. Most thermometers are slow to react to temperature change and will not provide an accurate reading due to this cycling. The oven provides accurate temperatures; however, it may cook faster or slower than your previous oven, so the temperature can be adjusted to personalize it for your cooking needs. It can be changed in Fahrenheit or Celsius. To Adjust Oven Temperature: 1. Press and hold the Temp/Time down arrow keypad for 5 seconds until the oven display shows the current setting, for example "0°F CAL" or "00." 2. Press the Temp/Time up or down arrow keypad to increase or to decrease the temperature in 5°F (3°C) amounts. The adjustment can be set between 30°F (18°C) and -30°F (-18°C). 3. Press the Start keypad. The temperature is preset to Fahrenheit but can be changed to Celsius. To change: Press and hold the Temp/Time up arrow keypad for 5 seconds. "°C" or "°F" will appear on the display. Repeat to change back. To exit mode, press the Cancel keypad. Keypress Tones Activates or turns off the tones when a keypad is pressed. To change: Press and hold LIGHT for 5 seconds. Repeat to change back. To exit mode, press the Cancel keypad. Demo Mode IMPORTANT: This feature is intended for use on the sales floor with 120 V power connection and permits the control features to be demonstrated without heating elements turning on. If this feature is activated, the oven will not work. To change: Press the Cancel keypad, the Cancel keypad, the Temp/Time up arrow keypad, TIMER SET/OFF. Repeat to change back and end Demo mode. Sabbath Mode For guidance on usage and a complete list of models with Sabbath mode, visit www.star-k.org. The Sabbath mode sets the oven to remain on in a Bake setting until turned off. A Timed Bake can also be set to keep the oven on for only part of the Sabbath. The Oven Control Lockout feature will be disabled during the Sabbath mode. After the Sabbath mode is set, no tones will sound, the display will not show the temperature, the Kitchen Timer mode will be canceled (if active), and only the following keypads will function: ■■ Temp/Time up and down arrow keypads ■■ Cancel When the oven door is opened or closed, the oven light will not turn on or off and the heating elements will not turn on or off immediately. When power is restored after a power failure, the oven will return to Sabbath mode and remain Sabbath compliant with the bake elements off until the Cancel keypad is pressed. Pressing the Cancel keypad at any time returns the oven to the normal cooking mode (not Sabbath compliant). Tones Tones are audible signals, indicating the following: Basic Functions One Tone ■■ Valid keypad press ■■ Oven is preheated (long tone). ■■ Function has been entered. ■■ Reminder, repeating every 20 seconds after the end-of-cycle tones Three Tones ■■ Invalid keypad press Four Tones ■■ End of cycle Before entering the Sabbath mode, it must be decided if the oven light is to be on or off for the entire Sabbath mode period. If the light is on when entering Sabbath mode, it will remain on for the entire time Sabbath mode is in use. If the light is off when entering Sabbath mode, it will remain off for the entire time Sabbath mode is in use. Opening the oven door or pressing LIGHT will not affect the oven light once Sabbath mode has been entered. If the oven has the Convection Bake feature, the oven light is controlled by a separate Oven Light switch on the console. If the oven light is ON when entering the Sabbath mode, it will remain ON for the entire time Sabbath mode is in use. For the oven light to be OFF during the Sabbath mode, the light bulb must be removed from the oven prior to entering the Sabbath mode. Not performing these steps will cause the oven light to turn on when the oven door is opened, resulting in the oven being not Sabbath compliant. On the Holiday, the oven temperature can be changed once the oven is in Sabbath mode by pressing the Temp/Time up or down arrow keypad. The oven temperature will change 25°F (14°C) each time the Temp/Time up and down arrow keypads are pressed. Press the Start keypad to activate the new temperature. The display will not change and there will be no sounds during this adjustment. 10
