RADIANT HEATING ELEMENT SYSTEMS
Heating Elements: The radiant heating element consists of a resistance
ribbon attached to microporous insulation with molded ceramic fiber walls in
a corrosion-protected metal tray.
Heating Element
The Heating Elements come in four sizes:
• 6" – 240 Volt, 1200 Watts
Micro Porous
• 12" – 240 Volt, 3000 Watts (Tri Ring 6", 9" or 12")
Insulation
• Bridge – 240 Volt, 2600 Watts

HOT SURFACE INDICATOR LIGHT
When glass temperature reaches 150°F, the hot surface indicator light is activated
to alert consumer that glass surface is too hot to touch. The hot surface indicator
light is turned on by an additional set of contacts within the temperature limiter.

Temperature Limit/Hot Light Switch
The Temperature Limit/Hot Light Switch performs two functions:
1. Turns on HOT LIGHT as soon as glass temperature reaches 150°F. The HOT LIGHT
will remain on until the glass surface above the heating unit has cooled below 150°F
(even after surface unit switch has been turned off).
2. Detects when glass temperature above a unit has exceeded its limit of approximately
1031°F and disconnects power to that unit. When glass temperature cools below 1031°F,

REMOVABLE OVEN DOOR
COMPONENT COMPARTMENT AIRFLOW
The oven uses a fan for cooling the components. Air is pulled in by the fan
blades and circulated in the component compartment. The air is exhausted
through louvers below the control panel and out the slots above the door.
DOOR ASSEMBLIES:
The doors can be separated into two assemblies: (1) Outer assembly which
consists of handle, vent trim, outer glass, bottom trim and frame; (2) Inner
assembly which consists of inner panel, gasket, glass panels and insulation.
The assemblies are held together by 2 screws on each side, along with 4
screws across the bottom.
CAUTION: Care must be taken when mounting door handle not to overtighten
handle screws. Overtightening screws can damage handle. Hand-tighten
screws (do not use electric driver). Make sure handle fits snuggly to door
panel.
SELF-CLEAN DOOR GASKET: The door gasket is attached to the inner door
panel by a chain of spring clips.
1. Locate spring clip at center of gasket and insert in hole on inner door panel near top.
2. Install gasket by bending at 90° beside clip and rocking into hole.
3. Tuck loose ends into slot at the bottom of inner panel.

CONTROL PANEL REMOVAL
The control panel contains the ERC and infinite switches.
To service:
1. Remove faceplate (reference section on control panel assembly).
2. Remove screws (from bottom) securing control panel to vent trim.
3. Remove steel control panel insert by removing 4 screws.
4. Detach from main harness by unplugging the 15-pin and 9-pin connector blocks.
5. Remove 5 screws securing the control panel to the maintop assembly.
6. Control panel can now be removed.
COOKTOP REMOVAL
Before removing the cooktop, the control panel must first be removed (reference section on
control panel removal). The cooktop is fastened to the body side extensions with two (2)
screws. Remove the 2 screws and slide the cooktop assembly forward. Lift the cooktop off.
The electronic range control system
consists of the control, key panel,
oven sensor and door lock assembly.
The key panel (control panel) and
electronic control are separate
components but must be tested together.
Key Panel Test
Press each pad on the key panel followed by the Clear/Off pad. If the key panel is
functioning properly, the following should occur:
• Bake, Broil, Convection Bake, Convection Roast, Clean, Timer, Clock, Stop Time and
Cook Time Modes – Audible tone plus display showing mode of operation selected.
• Clear/Off – Audible tone and display shows time of day.
• Probe – Audible tone and response if meat probe is plugged in.
• Numerical Pads – Audible tone. Can only be used after another function has been
selected.
Glass Touch Models ONLY – Lock Reference Command
When the control panel is accessed, the signals used by glass touch control may
be adversely affected. To compensate for this change in signals, the following
procedure must be followed every time the control panel is accessed.
1. Make sure power to the range is turned off.
2. Completely close the range control panel and return the range to its normal
installation.
3. Apply power to the range.
