TO USE THE “PROOF” FEATURE:
• The lower oven of a double oven unit is equipped with a "Proof" feature. When placed in the proof mode the oven maintains a warm, non-drafty environment
useful for proofing yeast-leavened baking products. The oven is heated by a ceiling mounted electric heating element and specially designed reflector assembly.
• It is recommended to proof on the lowest rack position, so place an oven rack on the bottom rack position before turning the oven to "Proof."
• To set the lower oven for proofing, simply rotate the lower oven selector switch to the "Proof" setting. The indicator lights above the selector switch and
the thermostat dial will turn on. Turn the lower oven thermostat dial to "Proof".
• The ideal temperature for proofing will be maintained until the selector switch is rotated to the OFF position.
• Set a minute timer for the minimum proof time and place the product to be proofed on the lower rack. Do not open the oven door unnecessarily, as
doing so will lower the oven temperature and increase proofing time.
• Do not use the "Proof" mode for warming food or keeping food hot. The proofing feature will not keep the oven hot enough to hold foods at
safe temperatures (above 140ºF).
• If the "Proof" temperatures are too high, the oven cavity lamps can be used to create even lower temperatures - ranging from room temperature to 80ºF - 85ºF.
Simply turn on the lamp and close the door.
