All oven modes are described below:
1. STANDARD BAKE – In Standard Bake mode, the bottom heating element provides conventional radiant 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 high wattage, top heating element 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 performed with the door closed.
3. CONVECTION BROIL – 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. Only available in ECD 230, PCD 230, and MCD230 models. 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. TEMPERATURE PROBE – The Temperature Probe can be use in combination with Standard Bake, Pure Convection™, or
Convection Bake modes. The Temperature Probe takes the guesswork out of roasting by cooking food to the exact internal
temperature you desire. The temperature range that the Probe will read is from 100˚F to 200˚F.
7. SELF-CLEAN – In the pyrolytic Self-Clean mode, the oven reaches temperatures of 850˚F, 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 convection racks are provided in the oven. 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 six 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 manually operate the oven in Standard Bake, Pure Convection™ or Convection Bake mode:
1. Position oven rack(s) at the proper height(s).
2. Press the touch pad for “STANDARD BAKE”, “PURE CONVECTION™” or “CONVECTION BAKE”. The oven will beep once, the
selected cooking mode will flash, and “– – –” will be displayed.
3. Press either the “+” or “–” pad. The default temperature of 350˚F will be displayed.
4. To adjust the cooking temperature from 350˚F, 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. The convection fan will
turn on to help stabilize the oven temperature during preheat. In standard bake mode, the convection fan will turn off once the
desired temperature is attained. 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. 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.
