Whirlpool WFE540H0E Benutzung Und Pflege

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.

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, unless the range is in Energy Save mode. During Energy 
Save mode, the display will be blank. Indicator lights show 
functions that are in use.

End of cycle

The Energy Save feature places the control and clock into a Sleep 
mode that reduces power consumption when the range is not 
being used.
To enter the Energy Save mode, the oven and control must be idle 
with the Time of Day (TOD) shown on the display. Press and hold 
CLOCK for 10 seconds. The control will beep and the display will 
show the letters “ES” followed by “On” twice. The display will 
return to the TOD.
If Energy Save mode is activated, each time the range is idle for 
5 minutes with only the Time of Day (TOD) shown, the display will 
show the letters “ES” followed by “On” twice. The display will then 
be blank until a control key is pressed or the oven door is opened. 
The control will then perform any of its operations in response to 
additional key presses.
To exit Energy Save mode, press and hold the CLOCK key for 
10 seconds. The control will beep and the display will show the 
letters “ES” followed by “Off” twice. The display will return to the 
TOD.

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.

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.
