Timers
WARNING
The timers on your range do not turn the oven on or off. They
are only for timing purposes. When you want to turn the oven
off automatically, use the
Delay Timed Cooking Features (see
page 18).
IMPORTANT: Pressing the CANCEL/SECURE key does NOT
turn off the timers.
Your range is equipped with 2 built-in timers:
You can use both of them at the same time.
You can time from 1 minute up to 11 hours and 59 minutes.
To Use the Timers on Your Range:
Press the TIMER 1 or TIMER 2 key.
Enter the hours and minutes to be timed on the keypad and
press START. To enter 11 hours, 30 minutes, press 1-1-3-0. To
time 25 minutes, press 2-5. When you press START, the time
will appear on the display and will begin to count down.
The alarm (a beeping sound) will go off when the timer is done
counting down. Timer 1 and Timer 2 have different beeping
patterns so you can easily tell which one has gone off. There is
also a special beeping pattern when both alarms go off at the
same time.
Press the TIMER 1 (or TIMER 2) key to stop the alarm.

Operating the Oven
Your range offers two broil modes:
Broil
Convection Broil
Broiling is a quick and flavorful way to prepare many foods,
including steaks, chicken, chops, hamburgers, and fish.
CAUTION
To avoid damage to the meat probe, remove it from the oven
when using either of the broil modes. It can be damaged by
temperatures above 450°F.
BROIL
Uses a top heat source. Best for broiling smaller
amounts of food.
CONVECTION BROIL
This mode uses a combination of the convection
fan and a top heat source. It is best for items that
do not need to be flipped such as, thinner cuts of meat, fish, and
garlic bread.

Understanding the Various Oven Modes (cont.)
Broiling Tips
If the meat probe is plugged into the oven, disconnect and
remove it before selecting one of the broil modes. The broil
modes do not function with the meat probe connected.
It is normal and necessary for some smoke to be present to
give the food a broiled flavor.
Setting the timer is recommended to time the broiling process.
Always use a broiler pan and grill to provide drainage for
excess fat and grease. Doing so will reduce spatter, smoke, and
flare-ups.
Start with a room temperature broiler pan for even cooking.
Use tongs or a spatula to turn and remove meats. Never pierce
meat with a fork because the natural juices will escape.
Broil food on the first side for a little more than half of the
recommended time, then season and turn. Season the second
side just before removing the food from the oven.
To prevent sticking, lightly grease the broiler grill. Excess
grease will result in heavy smoke. For easier cleaning, remove
the broiler pan and grill when the food is removed.
