Fahrenheit and Celsius

The temperature is preset at Fahrenheit, but can be changed to 
Celsius.

To Change: Touch and hold CUSTOM BROIL for 5 seconds. A 
tone will sound and “C” will appear on the display. Repeat to 
change back to Fahrenheit. To remove, touch UPPER OFF, 
LOWER OFF or OFF/CANCEL.

Timer

The Timer can be set in minutes and seconds or hours and 
minutes, and counts down the set time. The Timer does not start 
or stop the oven.

To Set:

1. Touch TIMER SET.

Touch again to switch between MIN/SEC and HR/MIN.

If no action is taken after one minute, the upper oven display 
will return to the time of day mode.

2. Touch the number pads to set length of time.

3. Touch TIMER SET or ADD MINUTE START.

If not touched within 5 seconds, the display will return to the 
time of day mode and the programmed function will be 
canceled.

When the set time ends, if enabled, end-of-cycle tones will 
sound, then reminder tones will sound every minute.

4. Touch TIMER OFF anytime to cancel the Timer and/or stop 

reminder tones.

Remember, touching the Off/Cancel pads will turn the 
respective oven off.

The time can be reset during the countdown by repeating the 
above steps.

Control Lock

The Control Lock shuts down the control panel pads to prevent 
unintended use of the ovens.

When the control is locked, only the CLOCK, TIMER SET and 
TIMER OFF pads will function.

The Control Lock is preset unlocked, but can be locked.

To Lock/Unlock Control: Before locking, make sure the ovens, 
Timer and Timed Cooking are off. Touch and hold START/ENTER 
until 3 tones sound and “CONTROL LOCK” and a picture of a 
lock appear on the lower oven display, about 3 seconds. Repeat 
to unlock and remove “CONTROL LOCK” from display.

Number Codes

The oven is preset with shortcut number codes for High Speed 
and Microwave Cooking. A number code includes one or more of 
the following; cooking power, cook time and food quantity or 
weight. See the code charts in the “High Speed Cooking,” 
“Reheating,” “Defrosting” and “Popcorn” sections for additional 
information.

Help Prompts

Help prompts are visible messages that appear on the upper 
oven display on combination oven models or the display on 
single oven models. Only Crisping and Broiling help prompts can 
be turned off.

Before turning help prompts on/off, the oven(s), Timer and, on 
combination oven models, the lower oven Timed Cooking must 
be off.

To Turn Off/On: Touch and hold the number pad “2” for 5 
seconds. A tone will sound and either “HELP OFF” or “HELP ON” 
will flash on the upper oven display on combination oven models 
or the display on single oven models for 3 seconds. Repeat for 
desired option.

HIGH SPEED COOKING

High Speed Cooking uses the broil element, convection element 
and fan and microwaves. All cycle on and off in intervals.

Bakeware and the interior oven surfaces, including the door, 
will become hot.

Always use an instant read meat thermometer to determine 
doneness of meat and poultry.

Use non-metallic, oven proof glass, ceramic or plastic 
approved for conventional oven use.

Covers are not necessary unless recommended in recipe.
If recommended, use a casserole dish and its lid for optimal 
results.

Do not use covers or containers made of foil, paper, waxed 
paper or plastic not recommended for use in a conventional 
oven.

When roasting, meats and poultry will spatter. Plastic oven 
bags designed for conventional oven use can be used for 
easier cleanup. Follow manufacturer’s recommendations.

When using the crisper pan or convection grid, place them 
directly on the turntable.

Select tender cuts of meat for optimal cooking results.

Arrange pieces of food in a single layer on the crisper pan or 
baking dish.

1. Broil element
2. Convection element and fan
3. Dual microwave emission
