On the backside of the unit is an exhaust chimney from which the exhaust that comes from the cavity is ejected. During each cooking cycle, you may have hot air and/or humidity coming out from this chimney (temperature and humidity of the exhaust depending on the cooking parameters set on the unit and on the type and quantity of food put inside the unit).

INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE OPERATOR

You will find important information about maintaining and operating your new oven in this manual. Please read the manual and become familiar with your new unit before you begin to operate it. Keep the manual in a safe place and make sure everyone reads it before operating the unit. Please use only Cadco- authorized service centers and always require quality Cadco OEM parts. Failure to comply with these standards can compromise safety and will void your warranty.

NOTES FOR USE

Your VariKwik™ oven was designed to cook and retherm food and must be used only for that specific purpose. Any other use may void your warranty. Use your VariKwik™ oven for tasks such as:
♦ Retherming/reheating
♦ Finishing
♦ Browning
♦ Melting cheese
The maximum operating temperature is approximately 500°F.
Your oven’s pre-heat temperature has been pre-set at the factory for 450°F for 120V units and 425°F for 220V units. You may modify this temperature in the SETTINGS> Adjust Temps> Modify> Adjust Preheat screen.
Your VariKwik™ oven features Tri-heat technology:
♦ You may set or modify the amount of time the Conductive and/or Infrared heat elements operate for each recipe, by choosing RECIPE DEVELOPMENT> Modify Recipe> Choose Daypart> Choose Recipe & Thick or Thin Modify screen. (See page 8.)
♦ Convection heat: Hot air circulated by a rear fan. Convection heat operates every time the unit is running.
♦ Conductive heat: Bottom heat is used for browning the underside of food. Typical uses include pizza, flatbreads, and sandwich toasting.
♦ Infrared heat (IR/ radiant heat): Top heating element(s) provide direct heat for finishing: melting cheese, top browning, caramelization, etc.
♦ NOTE: 220 V units may be set to use Conductive and Infrared heat simultaneously in any given recipe, in PROGRAM MODE only.
120V units may only be set to use one or the other at a time and may be used consecutively.
Avoid salting food products while they are inside the cooking cavity. Salt is very corrosive and may, over time, damage the interior of your oven.

CLEANING THE UNIT

WARNING: Before starting any maintenance or cleaning operation, it is necessary to disconnect the electrical power supply and wait for your unit to cool down.
Never allow grease splatters or spills to collect on the inside walls, floor, or ceiling of your unit. A simple cleaning with soap and water is usually enough to keep your appliance spotless and in “like new” condition for years. Your oven should never be cleaned with a water hose or anything more powerful than a spritz bottle. For tougher cleaning and built-up grease, we suggest using Foam Plus® from Discovery Products Corporation (Tel. 877.822.8500.)
Never clean the cavity with acids, abrasives, or aggressive detergents.
WARNING: Using a VariKwik™ oven without a gasket or with one in disrepair may cause the hinges to seize, as well as limit the oven’s ability to maintain the proper temperature. Doing so will void the warranty on the hinges. Please inspect and clean the door gaskets daily.

BEFORE USING THE OVEN FOR THE FIRST TIME

Before plugging the unit in:
Pull out & clean anodized heat plate and side racks separately (using a damp cloth, hot soapy water), then replace them when done.
Clean cavity (using a damp cloth, hot soapy water.)
With the cavity empty, preheat the unit to 400°F and run for 15 minutes (eliminating odors caused by residual protective factory grease.)

GENERAL

Wipe up any spills as they occur (after the unit has cooled down for 30-35 minutes.)
Never clean the cavity with acids, abrasives, or aggressive detergents.
Never use a spray of water to clean the outside of your oven. This may damage the electrical components and void your warranty.

DAILY CLEANING

Unplug the unit and let it cool down for 30-35 minutes.
Clean the cavity and door gasket using only the proper products (degreaser, damp cloth.)
(Never clean the cavity with acids, abrasives, or aggressive detergents.)
Pull out & clean the anodized heat plate and side racks separately (using a damp cloth, and hot soapy water), then replace them when done.
For heavily soiled areas, let the degreaser sit to penetrate before wiping with a damp cloth or scrub pad.
Wipe the door handle, door glass (inner and outer), and control panel using only proper products (detergent, damp cloth.)
Wipe dry after each cleaning process.

WEEKLY CLEANING

Follow protocol for Daily Cleaning.
Remove and clean door gasket:
Pull the gasket out of the channel.
Clean with detergent & water or dishwasher.
Wipe dry and let sit until completely dry.
To replace after cleaning, push back into a channel around the door.
Clean the outside of the unit using only proper products (degreaser, damp cloth.)
Never clean the unit with acids, abrasives, or aggressive detergents.
Wipe dry after each cleaning process.

MONTHLY CLEANING

FILTERS – There are 2 air filters: a square one on the left side of the unit and a larger round one in the back of the unit. They are removable for cleaning without requiring any tool.
Gently pull the black cover off of the filter.
Hand washes with detergent & water (DO NOT place in dishwasher.)
Pat dry and let sit until completely dry.
To replace after cleaning, position the dry filter in its black cover, and pop it back into place on the unit.
