begins to heat immediately after the
oven control is set. Then, the oven cooks
for the desired length of time set. When
using DELAYED cooking, the oven
begins to cook later in the day. Set the
time that you want to stop cooking and
how long you want to cook. The oven
calculates the time to begin cooking and
cooks for the specified length of time.

then once every 10 seconds until OVEN
CANCEL is pressed. Broil can not be set
