characteristics.

ELECTRONIC OVEN CONTROL

Oven Indicator Lights

The indicator lights are located along all 4 sides of the display. 
The indicator lights light up or flash when the oven is in one of the 
following modes: Bake, Broil, Clean (on some models), On, 
Start?, Controls Locked, Door Locked (on some models), Delay, 
Timer, Temp, Cook Time, or Start Time.

Display

When power is first supplied to the appliance, “PF” or a flashing 
time will appear on the display. Press OFF/CANCEL to clear. 

If “PF” or a flashing time appears at any other time, a power 
failure has occurred. Press OFF/CANCEL and reset the clock if 
needed.

When the oven is in use, the display shows preheat time or oven 
temperature setting.

When the oven is not in use, the display shows the time of day.

When using Start Time/Cook Time, the display will show either 
hours and minutes, or minutes and seconds.

If Start/Enter is not pressed after setting a function, the “Start?” 
oven indicator light will begin flashing after 5 seconds.

Start/Enter

The Start/Enter pad begins any oven function. If the Start/Enter 
pad is not pressed within 5 seconds after pressing a function 
pad, the “Start?” indicator light will flash as a reminder.

If Start/Enter is not pressed within 1 minute after pressing a 
function pad, the oven display will return to the time of day mode 
and the programmed function will be canceled.

Off/Cancel

The Off/Cancel pad stops any function except the Clock, Timer 
and Control Lock.

The cooling fan may continue to operate after an oven function 
has been canceled, depending on oven temperature.

Clock

This is a 12-hour clock and does not show a.m. or p.m.
