I can’t find my owners manual for my GE Spectra oven. I wanted to run the self-cleaning cycle. I went to the GE website and downloaded the manual. I noticed one of the sections was "Sabbath mode". Interesting.

Do they have one that faces Mecca and blows you up if you don't pray to allah five times a day?

I'll be damned. They do. Just looked.

It's called the "Oven of Peace".

It's in the Jewish and Christian section under "Infidel Cookware".

On the Sabbath, a gas flame or electric heat may not be initiated, adjusted or turned off.

I would assume there would be an exception to the rule about turning off a stove burner in case of fire or other such hazard? And that turning off a gas burner would be acceptable if something caused the burner to be extinguished?

Interesting post.

I live in a town bordering Lakewood NJ, which has the largest Rabbinical College in the country.

Largely Hasidim, they are for the most part, representative of the rest of our nation's population.

Aside from their , what might seem to some, specific edicts, I have always found them to be regular people, just like any other people I have met.

They tend to be clannish, and protect their own. They move towards doing business with people within their community. They support their community.

Some of them are my customers, when they choose to reach outside the community for someone they can trust. I have always found them easy going, holding strong family values.

I have also spoken to a few I trust....that unless they learn to walk on the shoulder of the road on Saturday mornings...I'll mow them down on my way to work.

BTW...they raise their children with kindness....no bomb strappers here.

Watch for Hotpoint to counter with an oven that cooks like hell, non-stop.

It totally seems to me that if a religious person wishes to abide by the customs of his/her religion, they don't need no stinkin' appliance manufacturers over-riding normal controls in order for them to remain religious.

Why can't each religious person abide by their beliefs by not touching the appliance that would offend their beliefs?

Too weak willed, and wants a third party to over-ride their hunger for a cheeseburger with fries??
