Oven Modes
All oven modes are described below:
1. STANDARD BAKE – In Standard
Bake mode, the bottom heat element
provides conventional baking heat.
Temperatures may be set from 135˚
to 555˚F in 5˚F increments. Use
Standard Bake for single rack baking
and roasting.
2. STANDARD BROIL – The Infrared
Ceramic Gas Broiler supplies the
heat in Broil mode. The high wattage,
top heating element supplies the
heat in Broil mode in the RSE30
model only. The broil temperature
is adjustable from 135˚F, to the “HI”
setting (equivalent to 555˚F) for
greater cooking flexibility.
Broiling is
performed with the door closed.
3. CONVECTION BROIL (RSE30
model only) – The high wattage, top
heating element supplies the heat
in Broil mode in combination with
the convection fan for better heat
distribution. The broil temperature
is adjustable from 135˚F to the “HI”
setting (equivalent to 555˚F) for
greater cooking flexibility.
Broiling is
performed with the door closed.
4. PURE CONVECTION™ – In Pure
Convection™ mode a third heating
element, encircling the convection
fan located in the rear of the oven
chamber, acts as the heat source. 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. 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
preparation of complete meals.
5. 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.
6. SELF-CLEAN – In the pyrolytic
Self-Clean mode, the oven reaches
extreme high temperatures, thereby
burning off oven soil automatically.
The Self-Clean time is adjustable up
to four hours so that varying degrees
of oven soil can be successfully
removed. Also, the Self-Clean cycle
can be delayed to start at a later time
if desired.
Three chrome-plated oven racks are provided.
Always remember to position the racks prior to
heating the oven. Also, remove the oven racks
prior to self-cleaning to prevent permanent
discoloration of the racks.
The porcelain rack supports provide five (5)
heights for positioning of the oven racks.
To install a rack, align the left and right edges of
the rack with the horizontal guide rails of the rack
supports, then slide the rack into the oven.

Oven Mode Selection
Follow these steps to operate the oven
modes:
1. Position oven rack(s) at the proper
height(s).
2. Press the touch pad for the modes of
your choice. The oven will beep once,
the selected cooking mode will flash, and
“– – –” will be displayed.
3. Press either the “+” or “–” pad. The default
temperature will be displayed.
4. To adjust the default temperature for
baking, press and hold the “TIME•TEMP”
pad. (Press “+” key to increase the
temperature setting, “–” to decrease.)
“PRE” and “ON” will appear in the
clock display, and 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.
NOTE:
Do not place food inside the oven until the
Preheat cycle is complete.
When the desired temperature is attained, the
Preheat cycle is complete. The clock will beep
once and “PRE” and “ON” will disappear from
the display. (From this time forward, the “ON”
display will cycle on and off with the heating
elements.)
5. Carefully place the food onto the desired
rack(s) within the preheated oven.
6. It is recommended that a Minute Timer be
set to time the cooking process.
7. When the time expires and/or the
food is done cooking, press the
“CANCEL•SECURE” pad to turn off the
oven.
The oven features an automatic Preheat 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 Preheat function. The
Preheat cycle operates in Standard Bake, Pure
Convection™ and Convection Bake modes.
There is no Preheat cycle for the Broil or
Convection Broil modes.
NOTE:
Allowing the oven to completely pre-heat
prior to placing food in the oven will avoid
excessive browning of the food. After the
oven signals that the pre-heat is complete,
allow 3-5 more minutes for the heat patterns
to normalize in the oven and then place your
food inside.
Preheating the Oven
The clock features two timers that may be used
for time cooking or other processes up to 11
hours, 50 minutes in length.
To use the Minute Timer function, follow
these steps:
1. Press the touch pad labeled “TIMER 1”, or
“TIMER 2”. The clock will display “00:00”,
and “TIMER 1”, or
“TIMER 2” will flash.
2. Press the “+” pad until the desired time is
displayed on the clock.
3. After “TIMER 1” has expired, the clock
will sound off with one second beeps and
“TIMER 1” will appear in the display. After
the “TIMER 2” minute timer has expired,
the clock will sound alternating one and
two second beeps and “TIMER 2” will
appear in the display. The beeper can be
silenced by pressing the “TIMER” touch
pad while the beeper is sounding.
IMPORTANT:
Cancellation of the Minute Timer does not
turn off the oven if it is operating. You must
manually shut the oven off by pressing the
“CANCEL•SECURE” touch pad.
NOTES:
1. To view the current time of day rather
than the remaining time on the Minute
Timer, just press the “CLOCK” touch
pad. To change back to a Minute Timer
display, press the “TIMER 1” or “TIMER
2” touch pad.
2. To cancel the Minute Timer while in
progress, press the “TIMER 1 or 2”
touch pad two times. The clock display
will return to the time of day.
3. The Minute Timers may be used at the
same time as Delay Timed Cooking or
Self-Clean.
4. The Minute Timers will beep for 2
minutes (if not cancelled) before
automatically shutting off.
5. Pressing the “CANCEL•SECURE”
pad when the beeper is sounding will
cancel both the beeper and the cooking
function.
