the release of hot air and moisture from the oven. Blocking or
covering vents will cause poor air circulation, affecting cooking
and cleaning results. Do not set plastics, paper or other items
that could melt or burn near the oven vent.

Meat Thermometer

On models without a temperature probe, use a meat
thermometer to determine whether meat, poultry and fish, are
cooked to the desired degree of doneness. The internal
temperature, not appearance, should be used to determine
doneness. A meat thermometer is not supplied with this
appliance. Follow manufacturer's directions for using a meat
thermometer.

Sabbath Mode

The Sabbath Mode sets the oven to remain on in a bake setting
until turned off. A timed Sabbath Mode can also be set to keep
the oven on for only part of the Sabbath.
When the Sabbath Mode is set, the number pads are active. On
single oven models, CANCEL and START are also active. On
double oven models, UPPER and LOWER OVEN CANCEL are
also active. No tones will sound, and the displays will not show
messages or temperature changes. The heat sources icons will
appear lit on the oven display throughout the Sabbath Mode.
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.
If a power failure occurs when the Sabbath Mode is set, the oven
will return to the Sabbath Mode in an untimed bake with a
temperature of 350°F (177°C).
