PROOFING
The proofi ng feature maintains a warm environment useful for rising yeast-leavened products.
How to set the oven for proofi ng
1
. Enter the proofi ng mode.
Press the
PROOF
pad.
2
. Start the proofi ng function.
Press the
SET/START
pad.
The proofi ng feature automatically provides the optimum
temperature for the proof process, and therefore does not have a
temperature adjustment.
. Press the
CLEAR/OFF
pad at any time to turn off the proofi ng
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 proofi ng time, do not open the
oven door unnecessarily.
Check bread products early to avoid over-proofi ng.
Do not use the proofi ng mode for warming food or keeping food hot. The proofi ng oven
temperature is not hot enough to hold foods at safe temperatures. Use the keep warm
feature to keep food warm.
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).
