EXPLAT{ATION
The
ovenis controlled by an ELECTRONIC
RAllcE
C0NTR0L
(ERC)
System. TheERC
function as a thermostat, selector switch
and
clock/timer. Thesystemconsists
of
the ERC,

anda motorized

lock mechanism.
\-
The
ERCis powered
by a step-down
transformer
which
is located
onone
of the
relay circuit boards. The
transformer
has
twosecondary
windings
providing
3.2 V.A.C.

voltage
to light the ERC

and
21
V.A.C.
which
the control uses
to
power
the coiIs of the ovencontrol relays.
A total of 5 relaysare usedto control
bake,
broil anddoorlock operations. Two
relays control the BAKE
circuit, two
relays
control the BROILcircuit and
one
relay
controls the doorlock motor. Two
relays
areused
in eachheating
element
circuit to
removebothsideCof the 'line (Ll and
L2)
fromthe element
when
the oven
is OFF.
