4. Place the insert on the broiler pan, then place the
food on the insert. DO NOT use the broiler pan
without the insert or cover the insert with aluminum
foil. The exposed grease could ignite.
5. Place the pan on the oven rack. Open the oven
door to the broil stop position when broiling.
6. Broil on one side until food is browned; turn and
cook on the second side. Note: Always pull the
rack out to the stop position before turning or
removing food.
7. When broiling is finished, press Clear/Off.
CAUTION: Should an oven fire occur, close the oven
door and turn off the oven. If the fire continues, use a
fire extinguisher. DO NOT put water or flour on the fire.
Flour may be explosive.
To Start the Self-Clean Cycle:
For satisfactory results use a 2 hour self-clean cycle for
light soils and a 3 hour cycle for average to heavy
soils.
To Set the Controls for a Self-Clean Cycle:
1. Be sure the clock shows the correct time of day.
2. Press Clean. "— — —" appears in the display.
3. Press the Up Arrow until "3:00" appears in the
display for a 3 hour cycle, or press the Down
Arrow until "2:00" appears in the display for a 2
hour cycle.
4. As soon as the Up Arrow or Down Arrow is
released, "CLn" appears in the display.
5. As soon as the controls are set, the motor driven
lock will begin to close automatically and the
"LOCK" indicator light will flash. DO NOT open the
door while the light is flashing (it takes about 15
seconds for the oven door to lock).
6. The "LOCK" light will glow until the cleaning cycle
is completed or cancelled, and the oven
temperature has cooled.
When the Self-Clean Cycle is Completed:
1. The time of day or "End" will appear in the display
window and the "Clean" and "LOCK" light will
continue to glow.
2. Once the oven has cooled down for about 1 hour and
the "LOCK" light has gone out, the oven door can be
opened.
3. If "End" is in the display and the "Clean" indicator
remains on, press Clear/Off. The time of day will
appear in the display.
NOTE: When the oven is cool, wipe away any residue
or powdered ash with a damp cloth or paper towel.
Stopping or Interrupting a Self-Cleaning Cycle:
If it becomes necessary to stop or interrupt a self-
cleaning cycle.
1. Press Clear/Off.
2. Once the oven has cooled down for about 1 hour and
the "LOCK" light has gone out, the oven door can be
opened.
3. Restart the self-clean cycle once all conditions
have been corrected.
HOW THE ES 200 OPERATES
The ES 200 electronic oven control system is made up
of three parts that control the bake and broil burners,
and the locking of the door in clean.
1. Electronic oven control.
2. Oven temperature sensor.
3. Oven door lock mechanism.
BAKE
When the bake pad is touched, and a temperature is
set with the up or down arrows, the bake relay on the
board closes, applying line to neutral voltage across
the oven bake circuit and the preheat and oven indicator
lights on the control illuminate. The bake circuit is a
series circuit made up of the electronic oven control, a
silicon carbide igniter that reduces in resistance as it
heats up, and a current sensitive oven safety valve that
needs a minimum of 3.2 amps of current to open. When
electrical power is first applied to the circuit the resistance
of the igniter is high enough that the current flow in the
circuit is below the amount needed to open the safety
valve. As electrical current flows through the igniter it
causes the silicon carbide material to heat reducing the
resistance of the igniter and increasing the current flow
in the circuit. When the temperature of the igniter
reaches around 1800 degrees F the current flow in the
circuit exceeds 3.2 amps. The oven safety valve opens
allowing gas to flow into the bake burner. The gas is then
ignited by the heat of the bake igniter and the oven begins
to heat up. In the tip of the oven sensor is a positive
coefficient thermistor that increases in resistance as the
oven temperature increases. The microprocessor reads
