The preheat conditioning time counts down the
approximate preheat time after the oven temper-
ature has been set and START has been
pressed. The preheat, bake, and on indicator
lights will light up. The oven control automati-
cally sets preheating times based on the oven
temperature you select:
•
For 245°F and less, the preheating time is
4 minutes.
•
For 250°F-445°F, the preheating time is
10 minutes.
•
For 450°F and above, the preheating time is
15 minutes.
The oven is preheated and ready to use when
you hear a 1-second tone, the on indicator light
goes off, the countdown is finished, and the set
temperature is displayed.
The preheat and set temperatures may be
different at the end of the countdown. This is
normal.
NOTES:
•
The preheat conditioning countdown will be
displayed in minutes from 14 minutes to 10
minutes, then minutes and seconds from 9:59
until the preheat countdown is finished.
•
When the oven temperature is greater than
170°F, no preheat conditioning time will be
shown on the display.
•
You can change the temperature setting any
time after pressing START/ENTER. You do not
have to press START/ENTER again.
•
The preheat conditioning time will not change
if you reset the temperature before the count-
down time ends.
