"ON" will appear, and the ERC will initiate the clean
cycle. The "LOCK" indicator will be displayed.

matically turn the oven off and the time of day will be
displayed. "LOCK" will remain displayed until the

The display will then show the remaining program
time.
ELECTRONIC RANGE CONTROL - ERC
ERC SYSTEM EXPLANATION - (One Piece Control)
The Electronic range control - ERC - operates in conjunc-
tion with a relay/power supply circuit board and an oven
temperature sensor to control all bake, timed bake, broil,
and self-clean functions.
The ERC has eight (8) function buttons to control minute
timer, stop time, bake, timed bake, broil, clean, and set/
cancel operations, and a rotary dial to set time and
temperature.
The ERC display consists of two (2) digital readouts which
display the time of day, cooking time, cleaning time,
minute timer time, stop time, baking temperature, broil,
and failure codes as well as several indicators to show
which function the ERC is controlling.
The attached relay/power supply circuit board consists of
two (2) relays for bake and broil operations which are
