Proofing
The proofing feature maintains a warm
environment useful for rising yeast-leavened
products.
Place in the oven on rack B or C
and, for best results, cover the
dough with a cloth.
Touch OPTIONS.
Touch PROOF.
The oven interior light turns on and then
will cycle during proofing.
The proofing feature automatically
provides the optimum temperature for
the proofing process, and therefore does
not have a temperature adjustment.
For double oven models only, touch
UPPER OVEN or LOWER OVEN to
select the desired oven.
Touch START.
Set the KITCHEN TIMER for the
minimum proof time.
When proofing is finished, touch
CANCEL.
s
Proofing will not operate when oven is above
125°F. "OVEN IS TOO HOT" will show in the
display.
s
It is not necessary to preheat the oven for
proofing.
s
To avoid lowering the oven temperature and
lengthening proofing time, do not open the
oven door unnecessarily.
s
Check bread products early to avoid
over-proofing.
NOTE: Do not use the proofing mode to reheat
cold food or to keep hot, cooked food warm. The
proofing oven temperature is not hot enough to
hold foods at safe temperatures. Use the WARM
feature to keep hot food warm.
