element. Times are guidelines only and may need to be adjusted

Warm Hold Feature
IMPORTANT: Food must be at serving temperature before
placing it in the warmed oven. Food may be held up to one hour,
however breads and casseroles may become too dry if left in the
oven during Warm Hold.
Warm Hold Feature allows hot cooked foods to stay serving
temperature. It can also be used at the end of a timed cook.
To Use Warm Hold as Stand-Alone Mode:
1. Press WARM.
2. Set the temperature (optional).
3. Press the TEMP “up” or “down” arrow pad to raise or lower
the temperature in 5°F (3°C) amounts to set a temperature
other than 150°F (66°C). The warm range is between 100°F
and 200°F (38°C and 93°C).
4. Press START.
5. Press CANCEL when finished.
To Use Automatic Warm Hold Feature:
At the end of a timed cook, either with or without a delayed start,
or at the end of a sequence program in which the last step is not
the Warm Hold mode, the oven will automatically default to a
1-hour warm hold mode at 170°F (77°C).
When the cook time ends or the last step of the sequence is
complete, the display will show a warming countdown time.
When warming ends, the oven will automatically shut off and
“End” will appear on the display. Four tones will sound and then
four 1-second reminder tones will sound every minute thereafter.
To Disable Automatic Warm Hold: Press and hold WARM for 5
seconds. “Off” will appear in the 4-digit display. Repeat to turn
back on.
When using the Automatic Warm Hold Feature, cook times may
need to be adjusted accordingly so that foods do not become
overcooked and dry.
Timed Cooking
Timed Cooking allows the oven to be set to turn on at a certain
time of day, cook for a set length of time, and/or shut off
automatically. Delay start should not be used for foods such as
breads and cakes which use ingredients such as yeast or baking
powder to leaven the food.
