TING THE OVEN

TIMED COOKING

In timed cooking, the oven turns on immediately and cooks for the length of time you select. At 
the end of the cooking time, the oven turns off automatically.

You can use the timed cooking feature only with another cooking operation (bake, convection 
bake, or convection roast).

You can set the oven for timed cooking before setting other cooking operations.

The clock must be set to the correct time of day.

How to set the oven for timed cooking

1

.  Enter the setup.

 

Press the pad for the cooking operation you want, eg. BAKE. The 
default temperature is 350°F.

2

.  Enter the temperature you want, eg. 375°F, by using the number 

pads.

.  Press the 

COOKING TIME

 pad.

.  Enter the cooking time you want, eg. 45 min, by using the number 

pads.

 

You can set the cooking time for any amount from 1 minute to 9 
hours and 99 minutes.

.  Press the 

SET/START

 pad to begin cooking operation.

 

The temperature display will start to change once the oven 
temperature reaches 150°F.

 

The oven will continue to cook until the set amount of time has 
elapsed, then turn off automatically unless the keep warm feature 
was set. (Refer to the section on the keep warm feature on page 
33.)

.  You can cancel a timed cooking at any time by pressing the 

CLEAR/OFF

 pad.

Place food in the oven after preheating if the recipe calls for it. Preheating is important for 
good results when baking cakes, cookies, pastry, and breads. After the oven has reached 
the desired temperature, a long beep will sound 6 times.

CAUTION

Use caution with the 

timed cooking

 or 

delay timed cooking

 features. Use these 

features when cooking cured or frozen meats and most fruits and vegetables. 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 cooking is 
completed. Eating spoiled food can result in sickness from food poisoning.
