preheat and balance of operation, one unit is on at a time.
• CLEAN — Broil unit only on
during 1st 30 minutes or
until oven reaches 750°F.
During balance of clean
oven will cycle between
bake and broil units.
Convection fan running make the following checks:
• Check the voltage from terminal CF to N on control - should read
120V in convection bake or roast mode.
• If voltage is OK, check convection fan motor. It reads approximately 15-20Ω’s at room
temperature. Check to make sure fan shaft is not rubbing on oven liner.

MOTORIZED DOOR LOCK
The motorized door lock assembly is located above the oven. The
assembly consists of a lock motor cam and switch assembly, lock
hook, heat barrier, and mounting plate.
Motorized Door Lock Operation:
The lock motor is energized when the control is set for Clean
and Clean Time selected. The K1 relay contact will close and
complete the circuit that supplies the voltage to the lock motor.
NOTE: Display of Control will flash “LOCK DOOR” if the door switch is in the “C” to “NC” position.
(Door open)
• The word “LOCKED DOOR” will flash on and off in the display while the
lock motor is in motion. When the door is locked the word “LOCKED
DOOR” remains illuminated in the display.
• CAM - The cam on the motor performs two functions:
1. Positions the lock hook in the door to prevent opening during clean
operation.
2. Operates the lock switches which tell the control if the door is unlocked or
locked and ready for clean operation.
NOTE: When door is either being locked or unlocked both lock switches will
be in the open position.
REPLACING THE COOKTOP LIGHT BULB
CAUTION: Disconnect electrical power to the range at the main circuit
breaker or fuse box before attempting to replace the cooktop light bulb. Do
not touch a hot light bulb with wet hands or a wet cloth. Wait until the bulb
has cooled and use a dry cloth.
To Remove Old Bulb:
1. Pull the range away from the wall.
2. Remove the two screws from the top on the
back of the range.
3. Pull up on the hand grips on the back of the range
until the tabs at the bottom of the cooktop light
housing separate from the back of the range.
4. Pull out the cooktop light housing as far as possible, about 2 inches.

setting.
•To use the small 6" cooking area, push to turn the control knob counter clockwise to desired
setting.
When a cooking zone is activated, coils beneath the zone radiate heat through the glass cooktop
to the utensil. The red glow of the coils will be visible through the glass. It will take the cooking
zone on the glass surface a few moments to heat up. The coil cycles on and off to maintain your
selected control setting.

SURFACE UNIT SWITCHES & CONTROLS
CONTROL TYPES:
CURRENT SENSITIVE
SURFACE UNIT SWITCHES
HOT SURFACE INDICATOR LIGHT
The hot surface indicators are on turned by contacts within the heating element temperature
limiters. When glass temperature over a cooking element reaches 150°F, its hot surface indicator
light is activated to alert consumers that glass surface is too hot to touch. When the warmer element
is turned on, the hot surface indicator display is activated to alert consumers that the glass surface
may be hot. The surface indicators will remain activated until the glass surface temperature has
cooled below 150°F.

SURFACES.
NOTE: Effective
January 1, 1996, the
National Electrical
Code requires that new
or rewired
construction utilize a
4-conductor
connection to an
electric range.
TEMPERATURE LIMIT/HOT LIGHT SWITCH
The Temperature Limit/Hot Light Switch performs two functions:
1. Keeps the Hot Light on until the glass surface above the heating unit has cooled below
150°F. (After the heating element has been turned off.)
2. Detects when glass temperature above a unit has exceeded its limit of approximately 1031°F
and disconnects power to that unit. When glass temperature cools below 1031°F, the unit will
turn back on.
The temperature limit/hot light switch cannot be calibrated.
Cooling Air Flow Air enters the door assembly through large slots in the bottom and
flows upward between the inner and outer assemblies, exhausting through slots in the
top of the door. DO NOT INSULATE THIS AIR CHANNEL.
To Service Full Glass Door
Door Gasket
The door gasket is clipped into the liner of the door panel.
To Service Gasket A 6" gap must be left in the gasket at bottom of door.
The gap is required to provide air flow in the oven for proper baking results.
Ceramic Glass Cooktop- The ceramic glass is sealed into theCOOKTOP and will
be supplied as a complete assembly.
CONTROL PANEL REMOVAL
The control panel contains the ERC, infinite heat switches and key pad/ glass assembly.
To Service:
1. Remove 2 screws (from bottom) securing control panel to the backguard.
2. Loosen 2 outside screws at the top, in the back of the range.
3. Pull bottom of panel out while lifting panel up.
4. Lay panel on cooking surface.
CAUTION:Place protective covering (such
as towel) between control panel and cooking
surface to avoid damage to control panel.
RADIANT HEATING ELEMENT SYSTEMS
Heating Elements: The radiant heating element consists of a spiral wound resistance wire attached
to micro porous insulation with molded ceramic fiber walls in a corrosion protected metal tray.
The Heating Elements come in 4 sizes:
• 6" - 240 Volt 1500 Watts
• 6"- 120 Volt 120 Watts (Note: The warmer will not glow
red like the cooking elements.)
• 9" - 240 Volt 2500 Watts (Dual Unit 6" & 9")
• Bridge - 240 Volt 2600 Watts

ERC
The Electronic Range Control system
consists of the control assembly, keypad/
glass assembly, oven sensor, door latch/ switch assembly.
Key Panel
The key panel is an electronic ( field disturbance) method using no moving parts. The circuit
board is conformally coated. It receives DC power from the ERC main control. It cannot be tested
separately from the control.
Voltage checks at the connector:
12 VDC from J1 pins 1 to 4.
12 VDC from J1 pins 1 to pins 16, 17, 18 when no keys are touched.
Key Panel Test
The keypad must have the designed minimum air clearance behind it to operate properly. A warped or
bent steel control panel could prevent some keys from operating. Depress each pad. The following
should occur:
•Bake, Broil, Convection Roast, Convection Bake, Clean, Kitchen Timer, Clock, Delay Start , Favorite
Recipe and Cook Time - Audible beep and display shows response corresponding to the key.
• Multi Stage- Press Bake, Cook Time, Up Min, Multi Stage. Display shows MULTI word.
•Warmer On/Off: Audible beep and display shows response.
• Warmer Power Level: Must press Warmer On/Off first. Select levels 1-3 as shown in display.
NOTE: Temperature/
