These units have an electronic thermostat to control the temperature in the oven and an electronic timer to control cooking time. The timer display indicates the time remaining on the cooking cycle.

INSTALLATION

UNPACKING
Immediately after unpacking, check the oven for possible shipping damage. If the oven is found to be damaged, save the packaging material and contact the carrier within 15 days of delivery. Prior to installation, test the electrical service to be sure that it agrees with the specifications on the oven data plate.

INSTALLING SINGLE OVENS

  • Installing Basic Oven (CN90, CN91, & CN95)
    The basic oven must be installed on legs or be mounted on a modular stand. Installations on concrete bases or other supports restricting air circulation on the bottom will void the warranty. If using the modular stand, set the oven on the stand after uncrating.

  • Assembling the legs to the Oven (CN901, CN911, & CN951)

1. Position the oven on its back, taking care not to scratch the sides.
2. Attach the four-leg assemblies to the bottom of the oven with the twenty-four bolts and lockwashers.
3. Reposition the oven by setting it on its legs in the installed position.
  • Assembling Cabinet Base or Stand (CN903, CN904, CN913 & CN914)
1. Screw two locating studs (found in cabinet base or stand carton) into the bottom of oven (Fig. 1).
2. Mount the oven on top of the stand or cabinet (Fig. 1).
  • Assembling the Chimney and Flue Extension

OPERATION

BEFORE FIRST USE
Before using the convection oven for the first time, it must be “burned in” to release any odors that might result from heating the new surfaces in the chamber.

  • Using a clean damp cloth, wipe the inside of the oven including the racks.
  • Wipe the outer surfaces to remove any dirt or film that may have accumulated during shipment.
  • Close the oven door, turn on the oven, set the thermostat to 300° for 6-8 hours. Smoke with an unpleasant odor will normally be given off.

CONTROLS

  • FUSE HOLDERS – WARNING: DISCONNECT ELECTRICAL POWER SUPPLY AND PLACE A TAG AT THE DISCONNECT SWITCH INDICATING THAT YOU ARE WORKING ON THE CIRCUIT BEFORE REPLACING FUSES. Replace fuses with appropriate type described on control panel.
  • ON/OFF/COOLDOWN Switch – Controls power to the control circuit; POWER light is ON when this switch is ON. The COOLDOWN position energizes the fan only (not the heating elements) to cool the oven rapidly when the doors are open.
  • LIGHT Switch – Turns the lights in the oven ON or OFF.
  • 2 SPEED FAN Switch – Ovens with a 2 SPEED FAN use the HI setting as the usual operating speed and the LO setting for delicate product like Meringue which might be blown around in the oven.
  • COOK TEMPERATURE Thermostat – Controls the oven temperature. The HEAT light is energized when the heating elements are producing heat.
  • TIMER KEYPAD – To set the timer, press CLEAR, enter the HOURS and MINUTES of the cooking time period and press START. The timer will display the setting and begin to count down. To enter a new setting, press CLEAR and begin again. CLEAR also turns off the buzzer alarm.
  • DOOR INTERLOCK – An electrical door interlock de-energizes the FAN and heating elements when the door is open. The COOLDOWN switch energizes the FAN only to cool the oven when the door is open.

CONSERVING ENERGY

  • Turn off unused equipment.
  • Do not open door unnecessarily; use window for observation of food in oven.

PREHEATING
With the doors closed and the thermostat dial set at the desired temperature, preheating is started by turning on the oven. Your oven will preheat to 350°F in just 10 minutes. PREHEATING is complete when the HEAT light goes OFF indicating that the thermostat temperature has been reached.

LOADING
Since the oven chamber is large and loading requires keeping the doors open, temperature drops will occur. To offset this for a full capacity load, it is suggested that the preheat temperature setting be 50°F higher than the required cooking temperature. After the foods are loaded in the oven, the setting can be returned to the appropriate temperature for that particular food. To minimize heat loss during loading, the doors should be open for the least amount of time.

RACK DATA (Pan Capacities Shown For Single Rack)

COOKING TEMPERATURES AND TIMES
Because of the moving air in the convection oven, the temperatures required to bake various products are lower and the cooking times are shorter than in a conventional deck-type oven with still air. Since recipes and foods are subject to many variations and tastes, the guidelines regarding temperature settings and cooking times contained in this manual are SUGGESTED ONLY. You should experiment with your food products to determine the cooking temperatures and times that aive vou the best results.

CLEANING YOUR CONVECTION OVEN

Always allow the oven to cool before cleaning. If the oven is hot, make sure the doors are only slightly ajar to minimize the exposure of the operator to the hot air. To speed up the cooling process, turn the ON/OFF/COOLDOWN switch to COOLDOWN and the fan will operate with the doors open.

  • CLEANING THE INTERIOR OF YOUR OVEN
    • Ovens With Standard Aluminized Steel Liners
    • Keep the inside of the oven and racks wiped clean. If food particles or carbon accumulate so doors cannot be tightly closed, heat is wasted and the oven will not operate properly. Poorly closed doors permit a constant escape of steam and vapor around the door. This causes condensation which deteriorates the finish around the oven front and door lining.
    • When cleaning the interior of your oven, it is important to bear in mind that the aluminum coating, though tightly adherent, is still a coating. To preserve the coating and for ease of maintenance, clean often when the oven is cold with mild detergent (or soap) and water. This will prevent food and dirt from “baking on” and will frequently be all the necessary cleaning.
    • Where soil resists soap and water cleaning, use a wooden tool to loosen spillage from the cold oven. Follow with a non-etching cleaner which is specifically recommended for aluminized steel. Use clear water to rinse; dry with a soft clean cloth.
    • DO NOT USE STEEL WOOL, WIRE BRUSHES OR CAUSTIC SOLUTIONS SUCH AS LYE, SODA ASH, OR AMMONIA.
  • Ovens With Stainless Steel Liners
    • In general, the principles detailed above for aluminized steel apply. Soap or detergent and water will usually handle routine cleaning; dry with a soft clean cloth.
    • For burned-on foods and grease which resist simple soap and water cleaning, an abrasive cleanser (scouring powder) mixed into a paste may be used. Apply with stainless steel wool or sponge, always rubbing with the “grain”.
    • This treatment is equally effective for “heat tint” (slightly darkened areas caused by oxidation). Again, remember to rub in the direction of the polish lines. Rinse with clear water and dry with a soft cloth.
  • Ovens With Teflon Coated Liners
    • To preserve the easy-care properties of your Teflon-coated oven panels, frequent cleaning is recommended.
    • Panels should be cleaned as soon as soil begins to turn brown. This will minimize the possibility of discoloration.
    • Do not use sharp instruments, abrasive materials, or oven cleaners on Teflon surfaces or the warranty is void.
    • To clean the Tetion panels, remove panels and wash thoroughly with hot, sudsy water using a sponge or web pad supplied with the oven. Do not use harsh abrasive or steel wool pads. Rinse with clean water and dry. Between these cleanings, oven spatters can be easily wiped off with sudsy sponge or cloth, rinsed, and dried. With Teflon, there is never a need for oven cleaners.

REMOVING PANELS
WARNING: DISCONNECT ELECTRICAL POWER SUPPLY AND PLACE A TAG AT THE DISCONNECT SWITCH INDICATING THAT YOU ARE WORKING ON THE CIRCUIT.

  • Remove tray racks by pulling straight out.
  • Remove right and left rack guides by lifting straight up.
  • Right and left panels may now be removed by moving toward the center and pulling out. To avoid scratching, do not rest panels on bottom panel.
  • Remove bottom panel by pulling straight out.
  • Remove blower baffle by lifting straight up and pulling out toward the front. Care should be exercised to clear brackets on the side. Blower wheel can now be cleaned as described in Cleaning The Blower Wheel, immediately following.
  • Top panel and stainless steel interior panels can be cleaned while in place. If removal of top panel is desired, unscrew three screws from front top edge of top and two screws from rear flange of top. Slide out toward front.
  • Reassemble by reversing the above procedure.
  1. Cleaning The Blower Wheel
    WARNING: DISCONNECT ELECTRICAL POWER SUPPLY AND PLACE A TAG AT THE DISCONNECT SWITCH INDICATING THAT YOU ARE WORKING ON THE CIRCUIT.

    • Remove all racks by pulling forward, lifting up and out.
    • Remove both right and left rack supports by lifting up.
    • Remove the blower baffle by lifting up and pulling out. Wash blower thoroughly with hot sudsy water using a sponge or plastic web pad. Rinse with clean water and dry.
    • Replace the hardware by reversing the disassembly procedure.
  2. Cleaning the Exterior of Your Oven
    Wash all exterior surfaces at least once daily using a cloth with warm water and a mild soap or detergent. Where surfaces have been waxed, use the cloth lightly — hard rubbing will remove polish. Follow with a clear rinse, then dry. This simple treatment will keep your equipment clean and sparkling and eliminate the danger of grease accumulation.

    • Permalucent Finish
      If grease has accumulated and attacked the PERMALUCENT finish, use any silicon-based polish following directions on the container. NEVER use a scouring pad on the PERMALUCENT finish. If the surface is accidentally marred, it can be quickly and easily restored with a “PERMALUCENT Touch-Up Kit”, available through your Dealer. Full instructions are in each kit.

    • Cleaning Stainless Steel Surface
      To keep the stainless steel front spotless, clean regularly with a damp cloth and polish with a soft, dry cloth. To remove discolourations that may have formed when regular cleaning was neglected, use any detergent or plain soap and water. For particularly stubborn discolourations, a self-soaping scouring pad may be used.
      CAUTION: Always rub with the “Grain” in a horizontal direction. Rinse, dry and polish with a soft cloth. Avoid using gritty soaps or harsh cleaners.

  3. Replacing Lamps
    WARNING: DISCONNECT ELECTRICAL POWER SUPPLY AND PLACE A TAG AT THE DISCONNECT SWITCH INDICATING THAT YOU ARE WORKING ON THE CIRCUIT.

    • Remove all racks by pulling forward, lifting up and out.
