Setting Bake
The oven can be programmed to bake at any temperature
from 170°F to 550°F (77°C to 287°C). The factory preset
automatic bake temperature is 350°F (177°C).
The oven indicator light will turn on when first set to bake
while the oven is heating. When the set temperature is

indicator light will cycle on and off as the oven maintains the
set temperature.
