OVEN USE

Odors and smoke are normal when the oven is used the first few 
times, or when it is heavily soiled.

IMPORTANT: The health of some birds is extremely sensitive to the 
fumes given off. Exposure to the fumes may result in death to 
certain birds. Always move birds to another closed and well-
ventilated room.

Electronic Oven Controls

Control Display

The display will flash when powered up or after a power loss. Press 
CANCEL to clear. When oven is not in use, the time of day is 
displayed.

Options Mode

Press and hold TIMER for 5 seconds, and “Opt” will appear. Use 
the Temp/Time “up” or “down” arrow pads to cycle through the 
following options. Press CANCEL to exit the mode.

Tones

Tones are audible signals, indicating the following:

Basic Functions

One tone

Valid pad press

Oven is preheated (long tone)

Function has been entered

Reminder (on some models), repeating every 20 seconds after 
the end-of-cycle tones

Three tones

Invalid pad press

Four tones

End of cycle

Oven Temperature Control

IMPORTANT: Do not use a thermometer to measure oven 
temperature. Elements will cycle on and off as needed to provide 
consistent temperature but may run slightly hot or cool at any point 
in time due to this cycling. Most thermometers are slow to react to 
temperature change and will not provide an accurate reading due 
to this cycling.
The oven provides accurate temperatures; however, it may cook 
faster or slower than your previous oven, so the temperature can 
be adjusted to personalize it for your cooking needs. It can be 
changed in Fahrenheit or Celsius.
To Adjust Oven Temperature:
1. 
Press and hold BAKE for 5 seconds until the oven display 

shows the current setting, for example “0°F CAL” or “00.”

2. Press the Temp/Time “up” or “down” arrow pads to increase or 

to decrease the temperature in 10°F (5°C or 6°C) amounts. The 
adjustment can be set between 30°F (17°C) and -30°F (-17°C).

3. Press START.

Sabbath Mode 

(on some models)

The Sabbath Mode sets the oven to remain on in a Bake setting 
until turned off. A Timed Bake can also be set to keep the oven on 
for only part of the Sabbath. The Oven Control Lockout Feature (if 
present) will be disabled during the Sabbath Mode. After the 
Sabbath Mode is set no tones will sound, the display will not show 
the temperature, the Kitchen Timer Mode will be canceled (if active) 
and only the following pads will function:

“up” or “down” arrow pads

Cancel

When the oven door is opened or closed, the oven light will not turn 
on or off and the heating elements will not turn on or off 
immediately.
When power is restored after a power failure, the oven will return to 
Sabbath Mode and remain Sabbath compliant with the bake 
elements off until the Cancel keypad is pressed.
Pressing the Cancel keypad at any time returns the oven to the 
normal cooking mode (not Sabbath Mode compliant). 
Before entering the Sabbath Mode, it must be decided if the oven 
light is to be on or off for the entire Sabbath Mode period. If the 
light is on when entering Sabbath Mode, it will remain on for the 
entire time Sabbath Mode is in use. If the light is off when entering 
Sabbath Mode, it will remain off for the entire time Sabbath Mode is 
in use. Opening the oven door or pressing the Oven Light keypad 
will not affect the oven light once Sabbath Mode has been entered.

If the oven has the Convection Bake feature, the oven light is 
controlled by a separate Oven Light switch on the console. If the 
oven light is on when entering the Sabbath Mode, it will remain on 
for the entire time Sabbath Mode is in use. For the oven light to be 
off during the Sabbath Mode, the light bulb must be removed from 
the oven prior to entering the Sabbath Mode. Not performing these 
steps will cause the oven light to turn on when the oven door is 
opened, resulting in the oven being not Sabbath compliant.
On the Holiday, the oven temperature can be changed once the 
oven is in Sabbath Mode by pressing the “up” or “down” arrow 
pads. The oven temperature will change 25°F (14°C) each time the 
keypad is pressed. The display will not change, and there will be no 
sounds during this adjustment.

To Bake Using Sabbath Mode:

1. Press BAKE.
2. Press the “up” or “down” arrow pads.
3. Press START.
4. Press and hold the TIMER keypad for 5 seconds. “SAb” will 

flash in the display. 

5. Press START within 5 seconds to enter Sabbath Mode; 

otherwise, the entire cycle cancels out. “SAb” will stop flashing 
and remain on in the display. The oven is now in Sabbath Mode 
and is Sabbath compliant.

Pressing the Cancel keypad at any time returns the oven to the 
normal cooking mode (not Sabbath Mode compliant).
