Use and Care Manual

Proof

Proofing is the process of allowing dough to rise.

Your oven’s proof mode is best for yeast breads that

require rise time in a warm, draft-free environment. Your oven maintains the ideal temperature for best

dough fermentation.

•

Before you turn on the oven, position the racks at the levels you need them.

•

After you prepare the yeast dough, place it in a clean bowl, place a damp towel over the top, and put
it in the oven.

•

If you have a

double oven, press the

UPPER ON/OFF

LOWER ON/OFF

key

to select the oven you want to use.

•

From the main menu, press the

MORE

key.

•

Press

PROOF

•

You will see the preset temperature of 100

appear on the display. To proof at that tem-

perature, simply press

START

. If you want

to proof at a different temperature, enter the

temperature on the number keypad (for ex-
ample: to proof at 120

F, press

, then

then

), then press

START

•

Leave the dough in the oven for about 1-2
hours (different yeasts require different rise times, so follow your original recipe). It should double in

size. Some recipes require a second proof after you shape the dough.
