The warm feature keeps cooked foods warm
for up to 3 hours after the cooking function is
finished, or it can be activated independently
to keep already cooked foods warm.
This feature is not designed to reheat
cold food.
To use this feature independently, touch the
WARM pad and then the START pad.
To activate this feature for use after Timed
Baking or Roasting, touch the WARM pad after
setting the desired length of cooking time and
before touching START.
To Crisp Stale Items:
Place food in low-sided dishes or pans.
For best results, place the food items in a single layer.
Do not stack.
Leave them uncovered.
Check crispness after 20–30 minutes. Add time
as needed.
IMPORTANT NOTES:
Food should be kept hot in its cooking container or
transferred to a heat-safe serving dish.
For moist foods, cover them with an oven-safe lid or
aluminum foil.
Fried or crisp foods do not need to be covered, but
can become too dry if warmed for too long.
Repeated opening of the door allows the hot air to
escape and the food to cool.
Allow extra time for the temperature inside the oven
to stabilize after adding items.
With large loads it may be necessary to cover some
of the cooked food items.
Remove serving spoons, etc., before placing
containers in the oven.
Do not use plastic containers, lids or plastic wrap.
CAUTION: Plastic containers, lids or plastic
wrap will melt if placed in the oven. Melted plastic may
not be removable and is not covered under your warranty.
How to Set the Oven For Warming (on some models)
How to Set the Oven For Proofing (on some models)
Place the covered dough in a dish in the
oven on shelf B or C.
NOTE: For best results, cover the dough with a cloth or
with greased plastic wrap (the plastic may need to be
anchored underneath the container so the oven fan will
not blow it off).
Touch the PROOF pad and then the
START pad.
The display will read PrF (proof).
The oven interior light turns on and remains
on during proofing.
The proofing feature automatically provides
the optimum temperature for the proofing
process, and therefore does not have a
temperature adjustment.
Set the KITCHEN TIMER ON/OFF for the
minimum proof time.
When proofing is finished, touch the
CLEAR/OFF pad.
To avoid lowering the oven temperature and
lengthening proofing time, do not open the
oven door unnecessarily.
Check bread products early to avoid over-proofing.
NOTES:
Do not use the proofing mode for warming food or
keeping food hot. The proofing oven temperature is
not hot enough to hold foods at safe temperatures.
Use the WARM or the Cook and Hold feature
(depending on model) to keep food warm.
Proofing will not operate when oven is above 125°F.
“HOT” will show in the display.
Using the proofing and warming features. (on some models)
The proofing feature maintains a warm environment useful for rising yeast-leavened products.
