I have a slightly older model which still has a dial to turn and numbers which are just raised enough that ai haven't bothered with labeling. Probably some time in the next year, my fiance and I will be looking for a stove for his kitchen. It will probably be a gas stove, but I'm dreading the process just the same.

You have to press each button to activate it.

I had quite of time getting mine labeled where I could use it as it is a flat panel which is very sensitive. You can get something to beep without meaning to. At least it makes a sound so that I know I've done something. If it's not the something I intended, I have to start over. Wish they still had the pressure sensitive panels but I couldn't find one. There's a long story to this one too and I won't bore you all with it. Just suffice it to say we were able to make it useable for a blind person. Is it ideal, no. But it functions. > > > ----- Original Message ----- From: "Steve Stewart via Cookinginthedark" <[email protected]> > To: "cookiginthedark" <[email protected]> > Sent: Sunday, September 07, 2014 11:19 AM > Subject: [CnD] electric stoves > > >> on the electric stoves, how do you turn the oven on?

It is made by frigidair, but it is a number of years old. It is a glass top. On the front of the stove, there are several buttons, bake, broil, convexion, clean, and some others. Then, there are numbers set up like a phone pad. Each button is very slightly indented, and is a different texture from the rest of the front pannel. If you wish to bake something at 350, you would press the bake button, then press the numbers 350 on the key pad, and then press start. When baking is complete, press clear. Since there a number of buttons, you can easily label them in braille. _______________________________________________ Cookinginthedark mailing list [email protected] http://acbradio.org/mailman/listinfo/cookinginthedark _______________________________________________ Cookinginthedark mailing list [email protected] http://acbradio.org/mailman/listinfo/cookinginthedark
