Convection Bake
In this combination convection-radiant mode,
the lower element provides the heat. As in
Pure Convection mode, the convection fan
and baffle combine to circulate heated air evenly
throughout the oven chamber. Temperatures may be
set from 135˚F to 555˚F in 5˚F increments. Use this
mode for single rack baking, multiple rack baking
and roasting.
Pre-Heat Cycle
The oven features an automatic pre-heat cycle that
rapidly brings the oven chamber up to temperature.
Simply by choosing a cooking mode and setting a
temperature, the oven will automatically perform
the pre-heat function. Pre-heat operates in standard
bake, Pure Convection and convection bake modes.
There is no pre-heat cycle for the broil mode.
Basic Oven Operation
Follow these steps to operate the various oven
modes:
Position the oven rack(s) at the proper height(s).
1.
Press the touch key for the mode of your choice.

5.
and
“ON”
and the selected cooking
mode will appear in the clock display. The oven
will begin to heat. If in a convection mode,
the convection fan will turn on. Also, the clock
display will change from the desired cooking
temperature to the actual oven temperature,
starting with 135˚F. The temperature display
will increase in 5˚F increments until the desired
temperature is reached. The cooling fan will turn
on when the oven temperature reaches 200˚F.
IMPORTANT:
Do not place food inside the oven
until the pre-heat cycle is complete (there is no pre-
heat cycle in broil mode).

About the Various Cooking Modes
Standard Bake (Selected Models Only)
In standard bake mode, the bottom heat
element provides conventional baking heat.
Temperatures may be set from 135˚F to
555˚F in 5˚F increments. Use standard bake for
single rack baking and roasting.
Standard Broil
The infrared ceramic gas broiler supplies the
heat in Broil mode. The broil temperature
is adjustable from 135˚F to the HI setting
(equivalent to 555˚F) for greater cooking flexibility.
Broiling is always performed with the door closed.
Pure Convection™ (ERD models only)
Your new oven has the best cooking system
available today, Pure Convection™. Pure
Convection is a total system approach to
cooking. Pure Convection allows multi-rack cook-
ing while achieving even results from one rack to
another.
In Pure Convection mode a third heating element,
encircling the convection fan, is located in the rear
of the oven chamber behind a baffle.
The convection fan draws air from the oven
•
chamber, then forces it across the hot convection
heating element. The heated air is directed back
into the oven chamber through the convection
baffle.
The baffle distributes the heated air evenly to
•
ensure uniform results. It also separates the
food from the heat source and channels the air
evenly into the oven eliminating any hot or cool
spots.
The convection filter, in the back of the oven,
•
eliminates the transference of flavors when
cooking entire meals and keeps the oven
cleaner.
Temperatures may be set from 135˚ to 555˚F
in 5
˚
F increments. Use this mode for single rack
baking, multiple rack baking, roasting and prepara-
tion of complete meals.
