The Delay Start function lets you use the kitchen timer to automatically start and stop
another cooking program (Bake). Delay Start can be set before other cooking operations
for up to 12 hours. The clock must be set to the correct time of day for Delay Start to
work properly.
Use caution when using the Cooking Time or Delay Start functions. These functions
are best used when cooking cured or frozen meats and most fruits and vegetables.
Foods that can easily spoil, like milk, eggs, fish, poultry, and meats, should be
chilled in a refrigerator before they are placed in the oven. Even when chilled,
they should not stand 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.
