perature.

heat the oven 3-4 minutes.

the oven is hot or when repeated
toasting functions are done.
KEEP WARM
❚ For optimal food quality and nutrition,
oven cooked foods should be kept
warm for no longer than 1 to 2 hours.
❚ For optimal food quality and color,
foods cooked on the range top should
be kept warm for an hour or less.
❚ To keep foods from drying, cover
loosely with foil or a lid.
❚ To warm dinner rolls:
