Oven Modes
All oven modes are described below:
1.  STANDARD BAKE – In Standard 
Bake mode, the bottom heat element 
provides conventional baking 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 Infrared 
Ceramic Gas Broiler supplies the 
heat in Broil mode. The high wattage, 
top heating element supplies the 
heat in Broil mode in the RSE30 
model only. 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 (RSE30 
model 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.
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.  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.
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. 
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.
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.
Preheating the Oven
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.
IMPORTANT: 
Cancellation of the Minute Timer does not 
turn off the oven if it is operating. You must 
manually shut the oven off by pressing the 
“CANCEL•SECURE” touch pad.
NOTES:
1.  To view the current time of day rather 
than the remaining time on the Minute 
Timer, just press the “CLOCK” touch 
pad. To change back to a Minute Timer 
display, press the “TIMER 1” or “TIMER 
2” touch pad.
2.  To cancel the Minute Timer while in 
progress, press the “TIMER 1 or 2” 
touch pad two times. The clock display 
will return to the time of day.
3.  The Minute Timers may be used at the 
same time as Delay Timed Cooking or 
Self-Clean.
4.  The Minute Timers will beep for 2 
minutes (if not cancelled) before 
automatically shutting off.
5.  Pressing the “CANCEL•SECURE” 
pad when the beeper is sounding will 
cancel both the beeper and the cooking 
function.
