Oven Calibration - Frigidaire PLEF489CCG Service Data Sheet

PREHEAT (some models)
During a preheat mode, the oven uses the bake element to reach the ERCIII set point. The element uses full
power when it's on. When the set point is reached, the preheat mode is converted in a normal bake mode.
NORMAL BAKE
During a normal bake mode, the ERC III preheats the oven with the bake element. When the desired
temperature is reached, the ERC III adds top heat by cycling the broil element on for 5 to 15 seconds per minute .
The bake element is on for the remaining time of the minute. Both elements use full power when they are on but
they are never on at the same time.
CLEAN
During a cleaning process, the oven uses the bake element.
CLEAN AND TIMED CLEAN
When these modes are called, the door locks right after start button is pushed.

OVEN CALIBRATION

Set EOC for conventional bake at 350
ture after a minimum of 5 cycles. Press CANCEL to end bake mode. Touch the BAKE pad. Set temperature to
maximum (550 o F/288 o C). Quickly (within two seconds), press and hold the BAKE pad until the special two digit
display appears. Release the BAKE pad.
NOTE: The display indicates the offset temperature from original factory setting. Original setting will read "00".
The temperature can now be adjusted up or down 35
arrow pad. Press the pad until the desired amount of offset appears in the display. A minus sign (-) will appear
before the number to indicate the oven will be cooler by the displayed number of degrees.
NOTE: Changing calibration effects both conventional and convection modes.
ERC III ELECTRONIC OVEN CONTROL FAULT CODES
FAULT
CODE LIKELY FAILURE CONDITION/CAUSE
F1 Shorted keypad (more than 30 seconds).
Control's internal checksum may have become
corrupted.
Control has sensed a potential runaway oven condition.
Control may have shorted relay, RTD sensor probe may
have gone bad.
Door motor failure/jammed. Latch motor switch failure.
o o
F/177 C. Using a portable thermocouple, obtain an average oven tempera-
o F/21 o C, in 5
4
o F/3 o C increments, by pressing the up or down
SUGGESTED CORRECTIVE ACTION
Replace EOC.
Disconnect power, wait 30 seconds and reapply power.
If fault returns upon power-up, replace EOC.
Check RTD sensor probe and replace if necessary. IF oven
is overheating, disconnect power. If oven continues to
overheat when the power is reapplied, replace EOC.
Severe overheating may require the entire oven to be
replaced, should damage be extensive.
With the unit in either the fully locked or fully unlocked
position, only one of the switches should be closed. If
both switches are closed, replace the latch motor
assembly or replace the control.
