Maytag MER8700DS オーナーマニュアル

Use flat-bottomed cookware for best cooking results and energy 
efficiency. The cookware should be about the same size as the 
cooking area outlined on the cooktop. Cookware should not extend 
more than ½" (1.3 cm) outside the area.

Canning can be performed on a glass smooth top cooking surface 
or traditional coil element cooktop. When canning for long periods, 
alternate the use of surface cooking areas or elements between 
batches. This allows time for the most recently used areas to cool.

■

Center the canner on the largest surface cooking area or 
element. On electric cooktops, canners should not extend more 
than ½" (1.3 cm) beyond the surface cooking area or element.

■

Do not place canner on 2 surface cooking areas or elements at 
the same time.

■

On ceramic glass models, use only flat-bottomed canners to 
avoid damage to the cooktop and elements.

■

For more information, contact your local agricultural extension 
office, or refer to published home canning guides. Companies 
that manufacture home canning products can also offer 
assistance.

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.

Tones are audible signals, indicating the following:

■

Valid pad press

■

Oven is preheated (long tone)

■

Function has been entered

■

Reminder (on some models), repeating every 20 seconds after 
the end-of-cycle tones

■

Invalid pad press

■

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 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 
time of day.
If Energy Save mode is activated, each time the range is idle for 
5 minutes with only the time of day 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 
time of day.

IMPORTANT: Do not use a thermometer to measure oven 
temperature because opening the oven door may cause element 
cycling to give incorrect readings.
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 “+” or “-” keypads 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.

Press and hold KITCHEN TIMER for 5 seconds, and “Opt” will 
appear. Use the Temp/Time “+” or “-” keypads to cycle through the 
following options. Press CANCEL to exit the mode.
Fahrenheit and Celsius

The temperature is preset at Fahrenheit, but can be changed to 
Celsius. Press KITCHEN TIMER to toggle between Fahrenheit and 
Celsius. Press CANCEL to exit.
End of Cycle Tones

“b1” (beep once) or “b” (continue to beep) will be displayed. Press 
KITCHEN TIMER to toggle through selections. Press CANCEL to exit.
Oven Light with Door Open

“LOn” indicates that the oven light will turn on when the door is 
open. If “LOFF” is displayed, the oven light will turn on only with the 
oven light switch. Press KITCHEN TIMER to toggle through 
selection. Press CANCEL to exit.
12-Hour Shutoff

If “12 Hr” is displayed, the oven will automatically shut off after 
12 hours. Press KITCHEN TIMER to toggle to “- Hr” to disable the 
12-hour shutoff. Press CANCEL to exit.
