2-hour “Auto Off” timer
The 2-hour timer features an automatic oven “cut off”. This
means that a cooking period of up to 120 minutes can be
set. When the timer has counted back to “Auto Off” a bell
will sound and the oven will automatically switch off.
Once automatic baking is complete, return to manual
operation by setting the timer to the ‘Off’ mark.
