CONVECTION BROIL (ERD48 left oven 
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.
PURE CONVECTION™ (ERD models 
only) – 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.
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.
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
Oven Racks and Supports
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. The cooling fan will turn on when 
the oven temperature reaches 200˚F. 
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.

Preheating 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.
Minute Times
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.
