INSTALLATION
Emissions testing conducted by Underwriters
Laboratories, Inc.®was found to be in
compliance with the applicable requirements of
NFPA96: 2004 Edition, Par. 4.1.1.2. U.L
emissions sampling of grease laden vapor
resulted in a total of 0.55 milligrams per cubic
meter with no visible smoke and is considered
representative of all oven models in the line.
Based on these results, hood installation and/or
outside venting should not be a requirement in
most areas. Verify local codes for locations
where more restrictive codes are applicable.
MINIMUM CLEARANCE REQUIREMENTS
18" (457mm) minimum clearance at the back from heat
producing equipment. To protect the electronic
control, maintain sufficient side clearance to prevent
the control area from reaching any temperature at or
above 140°F (60°C).

A number of adjustments are associated with
initial installation and start-up. It is important
that these adjustments be conducted by a qualified
service technician. Installation and start-up
adjustments are the responsibility of the dealer or
user. These adjustments include but are not
limited to thermostat calibration, door adjustment,
leveling, electrical hook-up and installation of
optional casters or legs.
LEVELING
Level the oven
from side-to-side and front-to-
back with the use of a spirit level. For ovens
installed with casters, it is important that the
installation surface be level due to the probability
of frequent oven repositioning.
We recommend checking the level of the oven
periodically to make certain the floor has not
shifted nor the oven moved.
NOTE: Failure to properly level this oven can
cause improper function and will result in
the uneven baking with products
consisting of semi-liquid batter.
RESTRAINT REQUIREMENTS
—MOBILE EQUIPMENT
Any appliance that is not furnished with a power
supply cord but that includes a set of casters must
be installed with a tether. Adequate means must
be provided to limit the movement of this
appliance without depending on or transmitting
stress to the electrical conduit. The following
requirements apply:
1. Maximum height of casters is 6" (152mm).
2. Two of the casters must of be the locking type.
3. Such mobile appliances or appliances on mobile
stands must be installed with the use of a flexible
connector secured to the building structure.
A mounting connector for a restraining device is

Probe Usage:
When the oven probe remains inserted in the probe bracket, the LED
temperature display will indicate the ambient air temperature inside
the oven. To use the probe for cooking remove it from the bracket
and wipe the full length of the metal probe with a disposable alcohol
pad to clean and sanitize before using.
Only the tip of the probe senses the internal product temperature;
therefore, it is important the tip be placed correctly in the product for
internal temperature accuracy. Push the probe tip halfway into the
product, positioning the tip at the center of the food mass. When
inserting the probe into solid foods such as meat roast or poultry
breasts, push the probe in from a straight downward position or in
from the side to the center position. If placing into a semi-liquid or
liquid product, the probe cable must be secured to keep the probe
positioned properly. Do not let the probe tip touch the edges, bottom
or side of a container. Tape the probe cable to the lip or edge of
the container.
Display High/ Low Probe Temperatures:
To observe the recorded maximum or minimum
probe temperature when cooking by probe, press
the following keys while the probe remains in the
product:
Highest Temperature: Press PROBE Key and UP
ARROW Key at same time.
Lowest Temperature: Press PROBE Key and DOWN
ARROW Key at same time.
Halo Heat Indicator:
When the oven is preheating the alo eat
indicator light will remain illuminated until it
reaches the set cook temperature. Once the
temperature has stabilized, this indicator will
illuminate periodically as the oven calls for heat.
Green and Amber Indicators:
Each program key includes a green light which
indicates a requirement for additional
programming by the operator or the current
operational state of the oven.
The COOK, TIME, PROBE, and
OLD keys include an amber
indicator light to identify the
information being displayed.
Power Fail Detect:
If the power were to fail for any reason while
heating, the control will retain, in memory, the
programmed operating conditions. When power
is restored, the control will resume operating
from the point where it was interrupted and the
ON/OFF indicator light will flash, indicating that
such an event did occur. The operator can turn
off the flashing light by pressing the ON/OFF key.
OTE: If su ch an e v e nt h as occu r re d , it is
strongly recommended that you ensure the food is
