Child lockout

This safety feature is used to prevent children from accidentally

programming oven by disabling electronic oven control. Child lockout is also

useful to prevent accidental programming while cleaning the range control.

Press and hold the BAKE and CLOCK pads for 5 seconds. OFF displays

where the temperature normally appears. To reactivate control, press and

hold the BAKE and CLOCK pads for 5 seconds on the oven control. Child

lockout must be reset after a power failure.

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.

Features

Oven temperature control adjustment

Your range is calibrated at the factory for proper temperature. Due to

individual variances and preferences, it may be necessary to adjust ovens

once they have been installed.
When first using the oven, follow recipe times and temperatures. Before

adjusting oven baking temperature, test a recipe by setting oven

temperature higher or lower than the suggested temperature. The baking

results should help you to decide how much of a temperature adjustment is

required.
An accurate digital thermometer is necessary to calibrate the oven. Store

purchased oven thermometers may not accurately measure oven

temperature. Oven temperature can be increased or decreased by 35°F. To

avoid over adjusting the oven, only adjust the temperature by 5°F each time.
NOTE: DO NOT place aluminum foil on racks and oven bottom as this

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. Press BAKE pad.

2. Using the UP arrow pad until an oven temperature greater than 500°F

displays.

3. Immediately press and hold BAKE pad for approximately 5 seconds.

4. A double digit offset temperature will display. Factory default is normally

00 degrees.

• Use arrow pads to key to adjust the temperature change in 5°

increments.

• When temperature is adjusted to a cooler setting, a minus sign (-) will

display with the offset temperature.

5. To set the temperature change, press OVEN CANCEL pad.

• Offset temperature change will be retained through a power failure.

Service codes and tones

Electronic oven control is equipped with a self-diagnostic system.

The self-diagnostic system alerts you if there is an error or problem with the

unit. If electronic range control sounds a series of short, rapid beeps for over

16 seconds and display shows an F-code, record the F-code shown. Some

F-codes can be cleared by pressing cancel or disconnecting power to the

range for at least 3 minutes. If the code continues to reoccur disconnect

electrical supply to range and contact an authorized servicer.
