The SL series Vectaire gas convection ovens are very similar to the Vectaire ovens Montague
has produced for years. The most significant difference is that solid-state electronic controls are
used instead of the elecro-mechanical ones commonly used. The result is the most accurate,
responsive and predictable ovens we have ever offered with the recognized dependability of
solid-state components.
This special manual is meant to be used as a supplement to the main "Vectaire Gas Convection
Ovens" instruction manual, which should be reference first for special instructions.
INSTALLATION
Montague's general installation instructions should be followed. In addition, since solid state
components have a very short life span when exposed to temperatures above 185°F,
(85°C), certain installation precautions are necessary. The SL ovens have been designed to
operate well below this temperature when installed properly, and the following cautions are
observed:
Caution
1. Do not obstruct the air out the vent holes at the top of the oven, or the flow of fresh
room air to the oven bottom or lower front portion of the burner access cover.
2. Do not mount the oven on a solid curb unless it has been modified at the factory for
this type of operation.
3. When stacking ovens, never reverse the top and the bottom ovens.
4. Never stack an SL convection type oven with a standard Vectaire, or any other type
of oven without first consulting the factory. Certain ovens are not compatible, or a
stacking kit may be required.
Special Caution
DO NOT PLACE HIGH HEAT PRODUCING EQUIPMENT ADJACENT TO THE RIGHT SIDE
OF AN "SL" VECTAIRE CONVECTION OVEN. EXCEEDING 185°F, (85°C), SURFACE TEM-
PERATURE CAN CAUSE PREMATURE COMPONENT FAILURE NOT COVERED UNDER
MANUFACTURERS WARRANTY. THE OVENS NEED 6" MINIMUM CLEARANCE ON THE
RIGHT SIDE BETWEEN SIMILAR OVENS OR OTHER COOKING EQUIPMENT. OPTIONAL
INSTALLATION KITS ARE AVAILABLE THAT REDUCE THE MINIMUM CLEARANCE
BETWEEN SIMILAR OVENS TO 1" AND BETWEEN OTHER EQUIPMENT TO 2". CONSULT
FACTORY.

Gas Control System - Vectaire SL (all models)
Follow the procedures in the main “Vectaire Gas Convection Ovens” manual to light the
standing safety pilot on standard models.
On models equipped with the optional Electronic Ignition, the procedure in the main manual is to
be followed with one exception. The Fan Control Knob must first be set to either HI or LO before
the electronic ignition system is energized and a temperature can be selected to initiate pre-heat.
On initial start-up or if the oven has not been used for an extended period of time, the pilot may
fail to ignite within 50 seconds, and a complete shut down of the ignition system will occur for
safety purposes. Turn the Fan Control Knob to the SYSTEM OFF position for at least 30
seconds, then back to either HI or LO and repeat the procedure.
If the oven does not ignite after 3 successive attempts, the entire oven gas system should be
checked for possible causes.
Control Panel - Vectaire SL70AH Models (Cook-n-Hold ) See Diagram A.
The FAN CONTROL KNOB is located at the top of the control panel, and when in the “off”
position turns all power off to the oven. The “COOL “ position is used to cool down the oven with
the fan on and the door open. The “HI” and “LO” positions are to select the fan speed. If the
model is not equipped with a two-speed motor, the “LO” position will result in no change in
speed. The fan must be switched on during cooking.
The LIGHT SWITCH is located directly below the fan control. If pressed and held, the oven
lights will come on. When released, the oven lights will turn off.
Below the light switch is the control DISPLAY WINDOW. At the top-left corner of the window
is the “CYCLE INDICATOR” light. When illuminated, the burner is on and applying heat to the
oven. When out, the control is not calling for more heat and the burner is off.
The TEMPERATURE DISPLAY is located at the top of the window and the TIME DISPLAY
is located at the bottom of the window.
Beneath the time display are four indicator lights. “HOUR” is illuminated when the time
displayed is greater than 60 minutes. “COOK/BAKE” is illuminated whenever a timed cooking or
baking cycle has been started, and the time display is showing the time remaining. “FAN DELAY”
is illuminated when this option has been selected, and the fan is either being pulsed or delayed
at the beginning of the cycle. “HOLD” is illuminated whenever this option has been selected, the
cook cycle has ended, and the oven is in the hold phase.
