Warm
Use the Warm mode to keep cooked foods hot until 
ready to serve.
Warm mode temperatures are 140 ºF–220 ºF.
The default temperature in the Warm mode is 170 ºF. 
Foods that must be kept moist should be covered with 
a lid or aluminum foil.
Proof (some models)
Proofing is the rising of yeast dough.
The Proof mode temperature range is 85 ºF to 110 ºF.
The default temperature in the Proof mode is 100 ºF.
Loosely cover the bowl or pan and use any rack that 
accommodates the size of the container.
Keep the door closed and use the oven light to check 
the rising of the dough.
Dehydrate
Use Dehydrate to dry and/or preserve foods such as fruits, 
vegetables and herbs. This mode holds an optimum low 
temperature (100 ºF – 160 ºF) while circulating the heated 
air to slowly remove moisture. The oven stays on for 48 
hours before shutting off automatically.
Tips:
Dry most fruits and vegetables at 140 ºF. Dry herbs at 
100 ºF (refer to the Dehydrate Chart for examples). 
Drying times vary depending on the moisture and 
sugar content of the food, the size of the pieces, the 
amount being dried and the humidity in the air. Check 
food at the minimum drying time.
Multiple drying racks (not included) can be used 
simultaneously. 
Treat fruits with antioxidants to avoid discoloration.
Consult a food preservation book, county Cooperative 
Extension Office or library for additional information.
CAUTION:
When using Warm mode, follow these 
guidelines:
Do not use the Warm mode to heat cold 
food.
Be sure to maintain proper food 
temperature. The USDA recommends 
holding hot food at 140 ºF or warmer.
DO NOT warm food longer than one 
hour.
t
In Warm, the upper and lower 
elements maintain a low temperature 
in the oven cavity in order to keep 
food at serving temperature.
t
In Proof, the oven uses the upper 
and lower elements to maintain a low 
temperature to proof bread or other 
yeast doughs.
T
Dehydrate dries with heat from a 
third element behind the back wall of 
the oven. The heat is circulated 
throughout the oven by the 
convection fan.
