Safety Procedures
DANGER
Indicates a hazardous situation that, if not avoided, will
result in death or serious injury.
• The appliance is intended to cook, hold or process foods
for the purpose of human consumption. No other use for
this appliance is authorized and is therefore considered
dangerous. The appliance must not be used to cook
food containing ammable materials (such as food with
alcohol). Substances with a low ash point can ignite
spontaneously and cause a re.
• The appliance is intended for use in commercial
establishments where all operators are familiar with
the purpose, limitations, and associated hazards of this
appliance. Operating instructions and warnings must
be read and understood by all operators and users.
Alto-Shaam recommends regular staff training to avoid
the risk of accident or damage to the appliance. Operators
must also receive regular safety instructions.
• Any troubleshooting guides, component views, and
partslists included in this manual are for general
reference only and are intended for use by qualied and
trained technicians.
• This manual should be considered a permanent part of
this appliance. This manual and all supplied instructions,
diagrams, schematics, parts lists, notices, and labels must
remain with the appliance if the item is sold or moved to
another location.
NOTICE: Indicates information considered important,
but not hazard-related (e.g., messages relating
to property damage).
Knowledge of proper procedures is essential to the
safe operation of electrically and/or gas energized
equipment. The following signal words and symbols
may be used throughout this manual.
Indicates that referral to operating
instructions is a mandatory action. If
not followed the operator could suffer
personalinjury.
Indicates that referral to operating
instructions is recommended to understand
operation of equipment.
NOTICE: For equipment delivered for use in any
location regulated by the following
directive: 2012/95/EC WEEE
Do not dispose of electrical or electronic
equipment with other municipal waste.
WARNING
Indicates a hazardous situation that, if not avoided, could
result in death or serious injury.
CAUTION
Indicates a hazardous situation that, if not avoided, could
result in minor or moderate injury.

MN-28665 • Rev 5 • 03/17 • ASC Series Convection Oven 7
Safety Procedures
• To prevent serious injury, death or property damage,
the appliance should be inspected and serviced at
least every twelve (12) months by an authorized
service partner or trained technician.
• Only allow an authorized service partner or trained
technician to service or to repair the appliance.
Installation or repairs that are not performed by an
authorized service partner or trained technician, or
the use of non-factory authorized parts will void the
warranty and relieve Alto-Shaam of all liability.
• When working on this appliance, observe precautions
in the literature, on tags, on labels attached to
or shipped with the appliance and other safety
precautions that may apply.
• If the appliance is installed on casters, freedom of
movement of the appliance must be restricted so
that utility connections (including gas, water, and
electricity) cannot be damaged when the appliance
is moved. If the appliance is moved, ensure that all
utility connections are properly disconnected. If the
appliance is returned to its original position, ensure
that retention devices and utility connections are
properly connected.
• Only use the appliance when it is stationary. Mobile
appliance racks, mobile plate racks, transport trolleys,
andappliances on casters can tip over when being
moved over an uneven oor or threshold and cause
serious injury.
• Always apply caster brakes on mobile appliances or
accessories when these are not being moved. These
items could move or roll on uneven oors and cause
property damage or serious injury.
• Be extremely careful when moving appliances
because the food trays may contain hot uids that may
spill, causing serious injury.
• Always open the appliance door very slowly. Escaping
hot vapors or steam can cause serious injury or death.
• If the gas appliance is installed under an exhaust
hood, the hood must be switched On when the
appliance is in use to avoid the build up of combustion
gases. Failure to do so may result in serious injury,
death or property damage.
• Accumulations on the main burners of gas appliances
can result in ring out of normal sequence. This
delayed ignition creates an alarmingly loud sound.
If your appliance makes an especially loud noise
when starting up, shut down the appliance and call a
qualied and trained service technician.
• Never place objects near the appliance exhaust vents.
Thisarea is hot and could be a potential ignition
source for a re.
• Do not allow objects to block or obstruct the area
below the appliance base. This may result in re,
damage to the equipment or serious injury.
• Do not use the attached hand-held hose to
sprayanything other than the interior of the
appliancecompartment.
• Do not use the attached hand-held hose on the
surface of a hot cooking compartment. The sudden
temperature change can damage the appliance
interior. Allow the appliance to cool to a minimum of
150°F(66°C). Failure to observe this precaution can
void the warranty.
WARNING
This appliance is not intended for use by persons
(including children) with reduced physical, sensory or
mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge,
unless they have been given supervision concerning use
of the appliance by person responsible for their safety.
Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not
play with the appliance.

MN-28665 • Rev 5 • 03/17 • ASC Series Convection Oven 9
Installation
The oven must be mounted on the factory equipped oven
legs or on an optional oven stand. Installation on a solid
or concrete base that in any way restricts air ow may
void the warranty.
All clearances for a proper ventilation air supply must be
maintained to minimize re hazard. Do not locate the
oven immediately adjacent to any other heat-generating
appliance.
A number of adjustments are associated with initial
installation and start-up. Adjustments must be conducted
by a qualied 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, and leveling.
The Platinum series oven burners are factory-adjusted
with xed air openings and require no eld adjustment.
Leveling
The oven should be leveled
before the gas supply is connected.
Level the oven from side-to-side and front-to-back with
the use of a spirit level. For ovens installed on a mobile
stand, it is important that the oor surface be level due to
the probability of frequent oven repositioning.
We recommend checking the level of the oven
periodically to make certain the oor has not
shied nor the oven moved.
WARNING
Improper installation, alteration, adjustment, service,
cleaning, or maintenance could result in property
damage, severe injury, or death.
Read and understand the installation, operating and
maintenance instructions thoroughly before installing,
servicing, or operating this equipment.
CAUTION
Appliance and accessories may be
heavy. To prevent serious injury, always
use a sufficient number of trained and
experienced workers when moving or
leveling appliance and handling accessories.
Restraint Requirements
—Mobile Equipment
Any appliance that is not furnished with a power supply
cord but includes a set of casters must be provided 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. Casters must be a maximum height of 6" (152mm).
2. Two of the casters must of be the locking type.
3. Such mobile appliances or appliances on mobile

system equipped with a damper or with a power means of exhaust, provisions shall be made
to allow the equipment to operate only when the damper is open to a position to properly
vent the appliance and when the power means of exhaust is in operation. Accordance with
NFPA 54 commonwealth of massachusetts only.
