A mode is a software environment that allows certain
operations to occur. These modes consist of off,
warm-up, idle, cook, cool down, edit, and test.
Off Mode
when in the off mode, the cook cavity tempera-
ture is below 150ºF (65ºC), and power is not being
supplied to the oven’s main components – the con-
vection blower, heaters, magnetron circuits, and
radiant element. however, there is power to the
oven controls (keypad and display).
Warm-up Mode
The mode in which the oven is warming itself to
the pre-defined cook cavity (CC) and radiant ele-
ment (ir) set temperatures.
Idle Mode
Mode in which an oven has successfully warmed
to the pre-defined set temperatures, and the oven is
ready to receive cook commands via the keypad.
when in the idle mode, the first 8 food groups
will appear on the display.
Until the oven receives cook commands, it will
cycle the blower motor/heaters in order to main-
tain the set temperature.
Cook Mode

ing a food item). note that a food item, or recipe,
is a sub-component of a food group (see common

During cool down, the oven’s main convection
blower circulates until the cook cavity temperature
is below 150ºF (65ºC). All major oven components
are turned off except for the cooling fan, convec-
