How to Set Delay Start and Automatic Stop
To avoid possible burns, place the shelves in the
correct position before you program the oven.
You can set the oven control to turn the oven on
automatically, cook for a specific length of time and
turn off automatically.
For example: Let’s say it’s 2:00 and dinner time is
shortly after 7:00. The recipe suggests 3 hours baking
time at 325°F. Here’s how:
1. Turn the OVEN SET knob to TIME BAKE.
2. Turn the OVEN TEMP knob to the desired
temperature (in this example 325°F).
3. Press the COOK TIME ON/OFF pad.
4. For 3 hours of cooking time,
press the UP pad until “3:00”
appears in the display.
5. Press the START TIME ON/OFF pad.
6. Press the UP pad until “4:00” appears in the
display. The timer is now set to start baking in
2 hours, at 4:00.
Once the oven begins cooking, the Cook Time
remaining will be displayed.
At the end of the 3 hour cooking time (7:00),
the oven will automatically turn off.
7. When the oven automatically turns off, the oven
control will signal. Turn the OVEN TEMP knob
to OFF to stop the signal. Remove the food from
the oven. Remember, even though the oven shuts
off automatically, foods continue cooking after the
controls are off.
NOTE:
• The low temperature zone of this range (between
150°F and 200°F) is available to keep hot cooked
foods warm. Food kept in the oven longer than two
hours at these low temperatures may spoil.
• Foods that spoil easily such as milk, eggs, fish,
stuffings, poultry and pork should not be allowed
to sit out for more than one hour before or after
cooking. Room temperature promotes the growth
of harmful bacteria. Be sure the oven light is off
because heat from the bulb will speed harmful
bacteria growth.
