Delay Timed Cooking Features
If you want to set the oven to automatically turn itself on or off at a
later time, you can use the delay timed features.
Things to Know About Delay Timed Cooking:
The delay timed options work for all of the various cook modes,
except broil and convection broil.
You may use the timers while using the delay timed features.
The timers do not have an effect on any of the delay timed
cooking options.
The delay timed cycle can be canceled at any time by pushing
CANCEL/SECURE
.
WARNING
Food safety is an important consideration when using the delay
timed features. To avoid potential sickness and the spoiling of
food, take the following steps:
Avoid using foods that will spoil while waiting for the oven
to start cooking. Typical foods to avoid include: those
containing eggs and dairy products, cream soups and
cooked or uncooked meats, poultry, and fish.
Do not allow foods to remain in the oven after it turns
completely off (after hold mode.) When the temperature
drops below 140°F, bacteria can develop.
If cooking will not begin immediately, place only very cold
or frozen food into the oven. Most unfrozen foods should
never stand in the oven for more than two hours before
cooking begins.
