AUTOMATIC TIMERS AND CLOCK
(on some models)
The automatic timers and clock on your range are
helpful devices that serve several purposes.
To Set the Clock
To set the clock, push the center knob in and turn the
clock hands clockwise to the correct time.
NOTE: The minute timer pointer will move also; let
the knob out and turn the timer pointer to OFF.

To Set the Minute Timer
The minute timer has been combined with the range
clock. Use it to time all your precise cooking
operations. You will recognize the minute timer as the
pointer which is different in color and shape than the
clock hands.
To set the minute timer, turn the center knob
counterclockwise, without pushing in, until the
pointer reaches the number of minutes you wish to
time. (Minutes are marked, up to 60, in the center ring
on the clock.)
At the end of the set time, a buzzer sounds to tell you
time is up. Turn the knob, without pushing in, until
the pointer reaches OFF and the buzzer stops.
Timed Baking Uses the Automatic Timers
Using the automatic timers (the DELAY START and
STOP TIME dials), you can set your oven to turn on
and off automatically. See the Timed Baking section.
NOTE: Before beginning, make sure the oven clock
shows the correct time of day.

Questions and Answers
Q. How can I use the minute timer to make the
surface cooking easier?
A. The minute timer will help you time total cooking,
which includes time to boil food and change
temperatures. Do not judge cooking time by
visible steam only. Food will cook in covered
containers even though you can’t see any steam.
Q. Must the clock be set on correct time of
day when I wish to use the automatic timers
for baking?
A. Yes, if you wish to set the DELAY START or
STOP TIME dials to turn on and off at set times
during timed functions.
Q. Can I use the minute timer during oven cooking?
A. The minute timer can be used during any cooking
function. The automatic timers (DELAY START
and STOP TIME dials) are used with the TIME
BAKE function only.
Q. Can I change the time of day on the clock while
I’m Time Baking in the oven?
A. The time of day on the clock should not be changed
during any program that uses the automatic timer.
You must either stop those programs or wait until
they are finished before changing the time.
