Setting the MIN/SEC Timer
The MIN/SEC Timer is designed for accurate timing and is ideal for baking
delicate items such as biscuits, cookies, and popovers, and for precise broiling.
The MIN/SEC timer can be used at the same time the Bake Time or Start Time
functions are in use. It can be used for timing up to 12 hours. When setting the
Timer, the time displayed will increase in 1 minute increments. When the Timer
counts down to 1 minute, the timer alarm will give two short beeps and the
display changes from hours:minutes to seconds only.
To program the MIN/SEC Timer
1. Press the MIN/SEC Timer button. The timer will display :00 and the word
timer will be displayed in the lower right corner.
2. Turn the SET knob until the desired duration time is displayed.
The Timer is now programmed. The alarm will sound at the end of the
countdown. The program can be canceled anytime by setting the remaining time
to :00. To change back to the time-of-day, press the CLOCK button. Notice that
a small clock will be displayed in the upper right corner to indicate that a
program is in progress. The display will return automatically to the MIN/SEC
Timer after a few seconds.
Timer Alarm
At the end of a MIN/SEC Timer program or Bake Time program, the alarm will
consist of three beeps followed by two beeps every 10 seconds until the
MIN/SEC Timer button is pressed. Whenever a valid function key is pressed or
when a control function starts automatically, one beep will be sounded. When an
invalid function key is pressed, two beeps will be sounded.

BROIL
The broil burner at the top of the oven
heats the metal screen until it glows.
The Gourmet Glow
TM infrared broiler
produces 1500°F (815.5°C) infrared
heat quickly searing the outside of
broiled foods and sealing in juices.
CONVECTION DEFROST
With the oven function selector set to
convection bake and the temperature
control off, air is circulated by a
motorized fan in the rear of the oven.
The fan accelerates natural defrosting of
the food without heat. To avoid sickness
and food waste, do not allow defrosted
food to remain in the oven for more
than two hours.
CONVECTION DEHYDRATE
With the selector set to Convection
Bake and the temperature control on
200°F (93.3°C), warm air is circulated by
a motorized fan in the rear of the oven.
Over a period of time, the water is
removed from the food by evaporation.
Removal of water inhibits growth of
microorganisms and retards the activity
of enzymes. It is important to remember
that dehydration does not improve the
quality, so only fresh, top-quality foods
should be used.

Electronic Timing Center
The Electronic Timing Center is used to program and control all timing functions.
It has five display and programming modes that are activated by the four push
buttons and the “SET” knob. Both the Bake Time mode and the Min/Sec Timer
mode can be used to time cooking periods.
