AUTOMATIC ELECTRONIC TIMER

The electronic timer featured in certain models provides full automatic timing of bake/roast or self-clean oven operation by means of two (2) relay-operated S.P.S.T. switches which are normally open, contact 11-12 and 13-

14.120 VAC power is connected to terminals 1 and 2. The numeric value of the 4-digit display can be increased by clockwise rotation of the "TIME SET" knob and decreased by counterclockwise rotation. All knobs are removable by pulling straight out.

When electrical power is initially applied to the range (or after a power outage) the display will alternately flash "88:88" and "Ñ". "Ñ" (the two (2) left most arrows) until the time-of-day is set. No other clock function can be pro- grammed until a time-of-day is set.

To Set Time of Day:

1.Press the "MIN/SEC. TIMER" and "BAKE HOURS" buttons simultaneously while rotating the "SET TIME" knob to correct time of day. Display shows "HRS.:MIN.".

The display will return to the time-of-day when the displayed timed function cycles out.

Time-of-day can be displayed at any time by pressing and holding the two (2) left most buttons.

Time-of-day cannot be changed when any timed function is active which may require a knowledge of time-of-day (exception: Minute Timer).

Indicator arrows (LED) are aligned over each of the four (4) push button function knobs and associated with that func- tion. Each indicator arrow is lighted during operation of that function and goes off at the end of that function. With the exception of the self-clean button, pressing in any one of the three (3) buttons on the left lights the respective indicator arrow which then allows only three (3) or four (4) seconds to set the time on the display, then the display reverts to time-of-day if nothing is entered. To set time-of- day in the display, simultaneously press in the "MIN/SEC" and "BAKE HOURS" buttons while rotating the "SET TIME" knob to the time-of-day. The time-of-day clock has no AM and PM indicator.
