12-hour automatic cancel

This safety feature prevents oven from continuing to operate if it has been left on for over 12 hours. If a cooking function continues longer than 12 hours without any options on oven control being touched, this feature turns oven off. Any time an option is touched, 12-hour automatic cancel is reset.

Child lockout

This safety feature is used to prevent children from accidentally programming oven by disabling electronic oven control. Press and hold BAKE and CLOCK for 5 seconds. “OFF” displays where the temperature normally appears. To reactivate control, press and hold BAKE and CLOCK pads for 5 seconds on the upper oven control. Child lockout must be reset after a power failure.

Oven temperature control adjustment

Your new range is calibrated at the factory for temperature. Due to individual variances and preferences, it may be necessary to adjust individual ovens once they have been installed.

When first using oven, follow recipe times and temperatures. Before adjusting oven baking temperature, test a recipe by using a temperature set higher or lower than the recommended temperature. The baking results should help you to decide how much adjustment is needed. Remember that a convection oven will cook food more quickly than a standard (conventional) oven.

An accurate digital thermometer is necessary to calibrate the oven. Store purchased oven thermometers do not measure oven temperature accurately.

NOTE: Remove aluminum foil from oven—it will alter oven performance. Check for blocked heat vents. If it still appears the oven is not performing as expected, a calibration may be done.

1.Push BAKE pad.

2.Push up arrow pad until an oven temperature more than 500°F displays.

3.Immediately push and hold BAKE pad (approximately 5 seconds)

4.A double digit number will display ranging from -35 to 35.

5.Immediately, press either

+ to increase oven temperature by 5°F. Maximum change is 35°F.

- to decrease oven temperature by 5°F. Maximum change is 35°F.

When temperature is adjusted to a cooler setting, a minus sign (-) will display with the offset temperature.

4.When desired temperature change is displayed, push OVEN CANCEL button. Temperature adjustment will be retained through a power failure.

Service codes and tones

Electronic oven control is equipped with a self-diagnostic system. Self-diagnostic system alerts you if there is an error or problem with the unit. If the electronic range control sounds a series of beeps and display shows an F-code, record the F-code shown and turn control to OFF. Some F-codes can be cleared by disconnecting power to the range. If the code continues to reoccur disconnect electrical supply to range and contact an authorized servicer.
