Oven Control Errors

This oven is equipped with a state of the art electronic oven controller. Among its many

 

features is a full time oven circuit diagnostics system. The controller constantly

 

monitors its internal circuitry as well as several crucial oven circuits to insure they are

 

all operating correctly. If at any time one of these systems fails, the controller will

 

immediately stop operation, and beep continuously (flashing an error code of F1 or F3*

 

in the display window, if equipped).
