A preheat conditioning time counts down the
approximate preheat time after the oven
temperature has been set and START has been
pressed. The oven control automatically 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 above 450°F, the preheating time is
15 minutes.
As the preheat conditioning ends, the selected oven
temperature replaces "PrE" on the display and the
time of day reappears. You will hear a 1-second
tone, indicating the oven is ready to use.
The ACCUBAKE ® system electronically regulates the
preheat time and temperature to maintain a precise
temperature range for the best cooking results. The
preheat and set temperatures may be different at the
end of the countdown. This is normal.

as possible.

• Plan your meals for the most efficient use of the
oven by cooking more than one food at a time, or
baking while the oven is still hot after cooking a
meal.
