IMPORTANT INFORMATION
ELECTRICAL SAFETY AND ADVICE REGARDING SUPPLEMENTARY ELECTRICAL PROTECTION
Commercial kitchens and foodservice areas are environments where electrical
appliances may be located close to liquids or operate in and around damp
conditions or where restricted movement for installation and service is
evident.
The installation and periodic inspection of the appliance should only be
undertaken by a qualified, skilled and competent electrician; and connected to
the correct power supply suitable for the load as stipulated by the appliance
data label.
The electrical installation and connections should meet the necessary
requirements to the local electrical wiring regulations and any electrical
safety guidelines.
We recommend:-
- Supplementary electrical protection with the use of a type A residual current device (RCD)
- Fixed wiring appliances incorporate a locally situated switch disconnector to connect to, which is easily accessible for switching off and safe isolation purposes. The switch disconnector must meet the specification requirements of IEC 60947.
Your attention is drawn to:BS 7671:2018Guidance Note 8 – 8.13 : Other
locations of increased risk
It is recognized that there may be locations of increased risk of electric
shock other than those specifically addressed in Part 7 of BS 7671. Examples
of such locations could include laundries where there are washing and drying
machines in close proximity and water is present, and commercial kitchens with
stainless steel units, where once again, water is present.
Where because of the perception of additional risks being likely, the
installation designer decides that an installation or location warrants
further protective measures, the options available include:
- Automatic Disconnection of Supply (ADS) by means of a residual current device having a residual operating current not exceeding 30mA;
- Supplementary protective equipotential bonding; and
- Reduction of maximum fault clearance time.
The provision of RCDs and supplementary bonding must be specified by the host organization’s appointed installation designer or electrical contractor and installed by a suitably qualified and competent electrician so as to comply with Regulations 419.2 and
SECTION 1 – INSTALLATION
⚠ UNLESS OTHERWISE STATED, PARTS WHICH HAVE BEEN PROTECTED BY THE MANUFACTURER ARE NOT TO BE ADJUSTED BY THE INSTALLER.

1.2 SITING
The unit MUST be installed upon a FIRM, LEVEL floor in a well- lit position.
It requires to be secured to this surface.
The oven can be positioned to within 150mm of a combustible wall.
⚠ WARNING: ALWAYS TAKE CARE WHEN MOVING THE APPLIANCE AS IT IS HEAVY. ALWAYS
USE SAFETY GLOVES AND ENCLOSED FOOTWEAR. DO NOT PULL THE APPLIANCE BY THE
HANDLE.
1.3 ELECTRICITY SUPPLY
The unit is designed to be connected to an AC supply only, i.e., single phase
or 3 phase 4 wire. The cable entry is located at rear of appliance (25mm
conduit).
The supply must be installed using a suitable isolating switch with a minimum
contact separation of 3mm in all poles. All wiring must be executed in
accordance with regulations listed on the cover of this document.
Ensure that the mains power cable is routed free from the appliance to avoid
damage.
We recommend supplementary electrical protection with the use of a residual
current device (RCD). Periodical testing, repair and fixing wiring connection
should only be undertaken by a skilled and competent electrician.
This appliance is also
provided with a terminal for connection of an external equipotential
conductor. This terminal is in effective electrical contact with all fixed
exposed metal parts of the appliance, and shall allow the connection of a
conductor having a normal crosssectional area of up to 10mm². It is located on
the rear panel and is identified by the following symbol and must only be used
for bonding purposes.
1.4 ELECTRICAL RATING
The rating is as stated below.
1.5 WATER SUPPLY (IRN R001)
⚠ WARNING: THIS UNIT SHALL NOT BE USED EMPTY.
The appliance is intended for connection to a main water supply only. The unit
must be connected in accordance with R160 and that an Approved double check
valve or some other no less effective device providing backflow prevention
protection to at least fluid category three shall be fitted at the point of
connection(s) between the water supply and the fitting or appliance. Supply
pressure must be within the range of 0.5 to 5 bar. A stop cock must be fitted
in an easily accessible position on the supply to enable shut off for cleaning
and maintenance. The front trough drain should be sited over a floor grating
where possible.
SECTION 2 ASSEMBLY and COMMISSIONING
2.1 ASSEMBLY
-
Position the unit and level by adjusting the screwed feet. Secure to the floor using the fixing points provided.
(Figure 1) 2 -
Check that all packing is removed from the oven compartment and from the water cistern area at the rear.
-
Ensure also that the steam vent is clear.
-
Check shelf runners hang properly upon brackets.
2.2 CONNECTION TO ELECTRICAL SUPPLY
Remove the control panel (2 fixings at the bottom, 1 at the top) and connect to the electricity supply. All ovens are supplied for use on either a 3-phase/4 wire supply or a single-phase supply. Terminals are arranged for direct connection to 3 phase/4 wire supplies. if a single-phase supply is to be used, it will be necessary to link terminals L1, L2, and L3 to form line terminal. Check supply voltage corresponds to the data plate details.
⚠ WARNING: THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED USING THE TERMINAL PROVIDED.
2.3 CONNECTION TO WATER SUPPLY
- Connect water supply. The cistern ball valve has been set to achieve the correct level, but this should be checked. The level is indicated by a mark on the inner wall of t h e cistern that corresponds to a 60mm water depth in the well. An additional level mark is located on the oven chamber wall.
- Test the unit by switching to Position 3, i.e. highest setting. Steam should escape freely from the vent pipe within 15 minutes and t h e control knob can be turned down to a lower setting.
- Check door seal is in good condition. When the oven is operating on full steam, there should be no escape of steam around the door periphery. Condensed water should not drip into the trough when the door is securely closed. Adjust the seal and/or door hinges as necessary.
