Oven Vent
A. Oven vent
The oven vent releases hot air and moisture from the oven
and should not be blocked or covered. Blocking or covering the
oven vent will cause poor air circulation, affecting cooking and
cleaning results. Do not set plastics, paper, or other items that
could melt or burn near the oven vent.
Sabbath Mode
The Sabbath mode sets the oven to remain on in a bake setting
until turned off.
When the Sabbath mode is set, only the Bake cycle will operate.
All other cooking and cleaning cycles are disabled. No tones will
sound and the displays will not indicate temperature changes.
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.
To Enable Sabbath Mode Capability (One Time Only):
1. Press SETTINGS/CLOCK until "SABBATH" is displayed.
"OFF. Press (1) for On" will scroll in the display.
2. Press the "1" keypad. "ON. Press (1) for Off" will scroll in
the display. Sabbath mode can be activated for baking.
3. Press START or CANCEL/OFF to exit and display the
time of day.
NOTE: To disable the Sabbath mode, repeat steps 1
through 3 to change the status from "SABBATH ON"
to "SABBATH OFF."
To Activate Sabbath Mode:
1. Press BAKE.
2. Press the number keypads to set a temperature other
than 350°F (177°C).
3. Press START.
For timed cooking in Sabbath mode, press COOK TIME
and then the number keypads to set the desired cook time.
Press START.
4. Press SETTINGS/CLOCK. Three tones will sound. Then
press "7." "SAb" will appear in the display.
To Adjust Temperature (When Sabbath Mode is Running):
1. Press the number keypad as instructed by the scrolling text
to select the new temperature.
NOTE: The temperature adjustment will not appear on
the display and no tones will sound. The scrolling text
will be shown on the display as it was before the keypad
was pressed.
2. Press START.
To Deactivate Sabbath Mode:
Press SETTINGS/CLOCK, and then press "7" to return to regular
baking, or press CANCEL/OFF to turn off the range.
NOTE: No tones will sound while deactivating Sabbath mode.

Baking and Roasting
Preheating
When beginning a Bake, Convect Bake, or Convect Roast cycle,
the oven will begin preheating after Start is pressed. The oven
will take approximately 12 to 15 minutes to reach 350°F (177°C)
with all of the oven racks provided with your oven inside the
oven cavity. Higher temperatures will take longer to preheat. The
preheat cycle rapidly increases the oven temperature. The actual
oven temperature will go above your set temperature to offset
the heat lost when your oven door is opened to insert food. This
ensures that when you place your food in the oven, the oven
will begin at the proper temperature. Insert your food when the
preheat tone sounds. Do not open the door during preheat before
the tone sounds.
Rapid Preheat
Rapid Preheat can be used to shorten the preheating time. Only
1 standard flat oven rack should be in the oven during Rapid
Preheat. Extra racks should be removed prior to starting Rapid
Preheat. Press RAPID PREHEAT, and follow the oven control
prompts, or, if preheating has already started, simply press
RAPID PREHEAT. The preheating cycle should be completed
before placing food in the oven. When the Rapid Preheat cycle
is complete, the oven starts a normal Bake cycle.
IMPORTANT: Rapid Preheat should be used only for one-rack
baking.
Oven Temperature
While in use, the oven elements will cycle on and off as needed
to maintain a consistent temperature, but they may run slightly
hot or cool at any point in time due to this cycling. Opening the
oven door while in use will release the hot air and cool the oven
which could impact the cooking time and performance. It is
recommended to use the oven light to monitor cooking progress.
NOTE: On models with convection, the convection fan may run
in the non-convection Bake mode to improve oven performance.
Temperature Management System
The Temperature Management System electronically regulates
the oven heat levels during preheat and Bake to maintain a
precise temperature range for optimal cooking results. The
bake and broil elements or burners cycle on and off in intervals.
On convection range models, the fan will run while preheating
and may be cycled on and off for short intervals during bake to
provide the best results. This feature is automatically activated
when the oven is in use.
Before baking and roasting, position racks according to the
"Positioning Racks and Bakeware" section. When roasting, it is
not necessary to wait for the oven preheat cycle to end before
putting food in, unless it is recommended in the recipe.
