Packaging
The pallet and box your baker was delivered in are both recyclable, please
dispose of them responsibly. You must retain and re-use all packaging if the
baker is to be transported.
Installation
Choose a at work surface and if possible site the baker near ventilation or
extraction to assist with the dispersal of steam.
Your baker will need to be sited near a standard electrical 13 amp socket, do
not share this socket using a multi adaptor as the permitted electrical load for
the supply will be exceeded.
Keep the mains ex away from hot surfaces, do not push it underneath the
baker or trap it under/in anything.
Do not position the baker near the edge of a counter or work surface where
staff or customers could brush against it in passing. The exterior of this
appliance will get hot during operation.
Remove all packaging and run the oven at 200°C for 40mins when using for
the rst time, this will “burn-off” any oils left by the manufacturing process.
Operating Recommendations
Always apply the basic safeguards you would follow when using any cooking
equipment or handling hot food. Always use an oven glove or gauntlet when
operating the baker or removing potatoes from it.
Steam will escape when the main oven door is opened, do not stand too close
to it and avoid opening the oven door unnecessarily.
Caution: Baked potatoes sometimes burst when handled or during baking.
Do not turn the thermostat up to its full setting, this will invariably burn the
outside of the potatoes, moderate heat for longer is preferable.
PB1 or Classic 25, PB2 or Classic 50
(2xtrays inside main oven) (3xtrays inside main oven)
(The PB2 has an additional source of heat in the display oven, this switch is labelled “display
oven”, you should still run the main oven whilst the display oven is switched on).
Cooking Instructions
Remove the interior main oven trays and position the raw potatoes on the
trays ready for loading, this will help you gain maximum capacity from your
baker.
Pre-heat the main oven for 15 minutes by switching the “fan oven” switch to
“on” and setting the oven temperature to 200°C, the red neon will go off once
the oven has reached temperature. PB2 only: switch the “ display oven” switch
on when you are ready to use the display oven.
Place the loaded trays into the oven and if desired, set the timer to the
required amount of minutes, this timer will not turn the oven off but will indicate
the amount of time passed. Some Classic 25 and 50 models do not have an
audible timer tted.
Once the potatoes are cooked to your satisfaction place them in the display
oven ready for serving, with the main oven running at 200°C, the display oven
will maintain 100 ~120°C, (PB2 only ~ switch the display oven on also). To
use the main oven for storage, reduce the temperature to 100°C and adjust as
required.
Cooking Times
We base our cooking times on 8oz baking potatoes, larger ones will require
longer baking and reduce the oven capacity. In general you should expect:
PB1/Classic 25 24 x 8oz/225gr Approx 60 minutes at 200°C
18 x 10oz/284gr Approx 70 minutes at 200°C
PB2/Classic 50 50 x 8oz/225gr Approx 60 minutes at 200°C
40 x 10oz/284gr Approx 70 minutes at 200°C
When the main oven is fully loaded air-ow inside may become restricted, in
this case reduce the cooking temperature by 15° but increase the cooking
time.
Recommendations
We recommend the use of washed and graded baking potatoes such as
King Edward, Maris Piper or Desiree although there are other varieties your
supplier may recommend to you.

before replacing cover
Once baked, the esh of a potato will gradually become darker although
the taste should not be affected, therefore we recommend you serve your
potatoes within an hour of cooking. Unused potato esh can be used in pies
and to thicken soups, or you can slice the whole thing to make delicious potato
wedges.
The skin of the potato will become thicker and crunchier if cooked for longer
at a lower temperature, however once baked potatoes are removed from the
main oven their skins will become softer as they reduce in temperature, this
is unavoidable and does not indicate a fault with your oven! The display oven
temperature is lower than the main oven, this prevents the potato from over-
cooking, prolongs the display life of the potato and presents a potato which is
not too hot for your customer to eat.
You may also:
Rub the potato skins in olive oil and salt prior to baking (makes the skins
crispier).
Prick the skins (may reduce the risk of some varieties bursting).
Wrap the potatoes in foil, (not usually necessary, produces a much “wetter”
potato with a soft, thin skin, also increases the cooking time).
Despite being prepared and cooked in the same way, different batches of
potatoes can produce different results ~ you may wish to experiment with
different cooking times and temperatures to achieve the results you want from
our bakers. The basic principles of baking apply to their use in the same way
as they do to any other commercial oven, apply these principles along with our
guidelines and you should have many years of trouble-free service from your
King Edward product.
Cleaning and Maintenance
IMPORTANT – Always allow the baker to cool and unplug it at the socket
before cleaning or maintenance.
DO NOT use abrasive or corrosive materials on any of the baker surfaces,
warm soapy water and a soft cloth should be sufcient to remove any stains.
PB1 and PB2 only: The Vitreous enamel exterior of these bakers will produce
a lovely shine if you use a micro cloth to clean and polish!
DO NOT submerge the baker in water or use any water jets to clean it.
The oven interior may be cleaned with a proprietary oven cleaner, please
follow the cleaner instructions carefully.
PLEASE DO oil or grease the main oven door catch regularly, you can spray
cooking oil into the rollers for this purpose.
Changing Bulbs
Disconnect oven from electricity supply.
The display oven bulb is a 25 watt G9 Halogen Capsule which can be
obtained from most electrical retailers:
Lever off the glass cover inside the display oven and replace the broken bulb.
The PB1 and PB2 also have a 60 watt reglow bulb tted behind the gallery
which is accessed underneath the baker:
Carefully tip the baker onto its front or back (not side) using a cushion
or folded towel underneath for protection, unscrew the bulb cover panel
and replace the bulb, reverse process.
Bulb life varies greatly and we are unable to guarantee their lifespan, bulbs,
fuses, glass, door seals and mains ex are not covered by guarantee.

Fault Finding Guide
PROBLEM CHECK
No power to baker Is the baker switched on at socket?
Check mains electricity supply and fuse in plug
*If trip/fuse continues to trip/blow after resetting or
replacing, Consult your equipment engineer.
(Top oven bulb may not be working – giving the
impression the baker is not working)!
Oven not heating up Turn left hand knob to mid (150~200°C) does neon
light up?
Yes – look inside oven to see if fan blade
is turning
No - (and fan not turning) consult your
service engineer
Burning product Is thermostat too high? (220°C or above).
No does neon go off when temperature knob
is at 100°C or less?
No consult your service engineer
Thermal cut-out The whole baker, (lights, elements and fan)
cycles off and then on again some time later indicating
a replacement thermostat is required
Yes - consult your service engineer
