Automatic Timer

TIME BAKE with the oven starting
immediately and turning off at the
Stop Time set or you can set both
DELAY START and STOP TIME
dials to automatically start and stop
oven at a later time of day. It takes
the worry out of not being home to
start or stop the oven.
Setting the dials for TIME BAKE
is explained in detail in the Baking
section of this book.
Self-Clean Uses

The self-cleaning function on your

set the length of time needed to
clean whether you wish to clean
immediately or delay the cleaning
until low energy times such as
during the night. See the
Self-Cleaning instructions in
this book.
