Cook Time
Adding a cook duration when baking is bene fi cial when a
recipe requires a speci fi c temperature and period of time to
cook. Following the recipe cook time helps insure the best
possible results.
Cook time may be set with the following features:
• Preheat
• Bake
• Conv Bake
• Conv Roast
• Slow Cook
See example below to set the oven for bake, starting
immediately with preheating to the auto-suggest (default)
setting of 350°F (177°C) and then to automatically turn o ff
after 30 minutes:
Once START is pressed the oven will cook and after 30
minutes automatically shut-o ff .
1. Press BAKE
2. Press START
3. Press COOK TIME
4. Enter 30 minutes
5. Press START
NOTE
To cancel the function, you may press • STOP at any time
when setting the control or during the cooking process.
The maximum Cook Time setting is 11 hours and 59
•
minutes.
After the Cook Time feature has been activated, the
•
display will go back to showing the hour of day. Press the
COOK TIME keypad to display any remaining cook time.
• Dark or dull pans absorb more heat than shiny bakeware
resulting in dark or overbrowning of foods. It may be
necessary to reduce the oven temperature or cook time
to prevent overbrowning of some foods. Dark pans are
recommended for pies. Shiny pans are recommended for
cakes, cookies or muffins.
When the Cook Time fi nishes:
1. " End " and the time of day will show in display. The oven
will shut o ff automatically.
2. The control will beep 3 times. The control will continue to
beep 3 times every 30 seconds until STOP is pressed.
Delay Start (with cook time)

time of day is set.

TIME .
Delay Start may be set using a 24 hour clock. See Setting 12 •

Adding a cook duration along with a speci fi c start time
gives the same bene fi ts as the cook time option in addition
to controlling exactly when the cooking process will begin
and end.

• Bake
• Conv Bake
• Conv Roast
• Slow Cook
• Flex Clean

FOOD POISONING HAZARD. Do not let food sit for more than one hour before or after cooking. Doing so can result in
food poisoning or sickness. Foods that can easily spoil such as milk, eggs, fi sh, meat or poultry, should be chilled in the
refrigerator fi rst. Even when chilled, they should not stand in the oven for more than 1 hour before cooking begins, and
should be removed promptly when fi nished cooking.
