1. Timer countdown

When the Timer is in use, the oven can still operate. During an

Vent Fan

The vent fan has 4 speeds ranging from Off to High.

too hot. It may stay on for up to 1 hour to cool the oven. When 
this occurs, the Fan button will not function.

A few seconds after the last time the Fan button is pressed, 
the screen returns to the previous display.

The first time the vent fan is turned on after power is 
connected to the oven, the fan will start at high speed. The 
next time the vent fan is turned on, it will start at the last 
speed used.

To Turn Fan On/Off: Press the Fan button to turn fan on, then 
touch “+” or “-” on the display screen to select fan speed. Press 
the Fan button twice to turn the fan off (or once if the Fan screen 
is active).

ranging from Off to High. The light can be turned on manually, or 
the Night Light can be programmed to come on automatically 
when the sensor detects low light level.

To Manually Turn Light On/Off: Press the Light button to turn 
light on. Touch “+” or “-” on the display screen to set desired 
brightness level. Press the Light button twice to turn light off (or
