The proofing feature maintains a warm environment useful for rising yeast-leavened products.
How to set the oven for proofing
1
. Enter the proofing mode.
Press the
PROOF
pad.
2
. Start the proofing function.
Press the
SET/START
pad.
The proofing feature automatically provides the optimum
temperature for the proof process, and therefore does not have a
temperature adjustment.
3
. Press the
CLEAR/OFF
pad at any time to turn off the proofing
feature.
If you press the
•
PROOF
pad when the oven temperature is above 100˚F,
Hot
will appear
in the display. Because these functions produce the best results when started while
the oven is cool, we recommend that you wait until the oven has cooled down and Hot
disappears from the display.
To avoid lowering the oven temperature and lengthening proofing time, do not open the
•
oven door unnecessarily.
Check bread products early to avoid over-proofing.
•
Do not use the proofing mode for warming food or keeping food hot. The proofing oven
•
temperature is not hot enough to hold foods at safe temperatures. Use the keep warm
eature(see next page).
For best results, cover the dough with a cloth or with plastic wrap (the plastic may need
•
to be anchored underneath the container so the oven fan will not blow it off).
