GENERAL
INTRODUCTION
General
The FlashBake®oven is a versatile oven that
employs a revolutionary high quality, high speed
cooking technology. Thebaking process is so fast that
food retains its natural juices. Bread products brown
and become crisp while vegetables retain their color
and texture. The texture, appearance and quality of
food cooked in this oven is superior to that provided
by any other method of cooking.
In conventional ovens, the cooking process occurs by
transferring heat energy from the air inside the oven
into the food. Hot surfaces inside the oven also
transfer heat directly into the food by conduction. In
convection ovens, the air-to-food heat transfer is
enhanced by the uniform circulation of the heated air
around the food. Forced air ovens blow the heated air
directly onto the food, providing marginal increases in
cooking speeds.
FlashBakeovensusevisibleandinfraredlight energy
to cook by radiative heat transfer. The infrared energy
browns the surface of the food, while the visible light
energy penetrates and heats it internally. Using the
proper combination of visible and infrared light
energy, the FlashBake oven provides efficient, high-
speed baking and high-quality food.
• Use metal pans (thin wall pans will warp),
Corning Vision Ware®or foil.
• Do not use paper (it will burn), Pyrex®dishes or
plastic.
Zone Power Levels
The lamps are positioned sothat the center lamps are
above and below the center of the grill. The outer
lamps are located above and below the rear of the
grill. There is only one top center lamp and one
bottom center lamp. The top outer has three lamps
and the bottom outer has two lamps.
Changing the top outer and bottom outer power levels
will have a greater effect on cooking times and
browning than changing the center power levels. This
is because outer intensities contain 70% of the
cooking energy while the center intensities only
contain 30% of the cooking energy.
SPECIFICATIONS
General
• If the inlet air is obstructed or heated the oven
will not operate properly.
• Install the HFB12 oven on a level counter top or
other stable surface of sufficient strength to
safely support the oven.
• Position the oven at an appropriate height to
allow safe handling of hot food and convenient
access to the oven controls.
• Position the ovenso that the open door does not
extend into areas that may result in accidental
contact with hot oven parts.
• Theoven can be ordered with a 6' power cord for
receptacle installation. If this is the case assure
that the unit cord can be plugged into the outlet
without strain on the cord or plug.

Electrical
NOTE: Throughout this manual the term “STINGER”
(sometimes called “Wild Leg”) will be used to identify
the leg of a three phase system that shows more than
approximately 120 volts to system ground (neutral).
The “Stinger”leg of a 240 volt 3 phase system can be
easily identified using a voltmeter. The line-to-ground
voltage of the “Stinger”will read approximately 210
volts. The line-to-ground voltage of the other two legs
will read approximately 120 volts.
•This HFB12 oven automatically adapts to either
208 volt or 240 volt operation. For 3 phase
operation, the oven automatically senses and
adapts to the existing phase rotation.
•For cord connected Ovens: Plug the oven into a
dedicated circuit outlet of the appropriate NEMA
style and rating.
•For hard-wired Ovens: Have a qualified
electrician wire the Oven into a properly rated
dedicated circuit, connecting to the pigtails in the
junction box on the rear of the Oven, using the
appropriate conduit, wire and connectors.
•For a single phase 240 volt Oven: Both “hot legs”
must read 120 volts to ground. The “stinger”leg
must not be attached to a single phase oven.
•For a 3 phase 240 volt Oven: When connecting
a 3 phase 240 volt oven, the “stinger”leg of the
supply circuit MUST be connected as follows:
•For a hard-wired oven, connect the stinger to
the blue pigtail. The blue wire is marked with
a label indicating the stinger connection.
•For a cord connected oven, the stinger must
be wired to the receptacle at the pin location
opposite the ground lug.

Exhaust Duct
•Alengthof flexibleexhaustduct may beattached
to the oven to vent hot air out of the cooking
area. Attachthe duct to the blower assembly with
a clamp.
•If needed, a length of 4" flexible exhaust duct
(made of metal suitable for high temperature) not
exceeding 6 feet may be attached to the HFB12
oven to vent hot air out of the cooking area.
Attach the duct to the blower assembly as shown
below. Be sure there are no bends in the duct
that will restrict air flow. Depending on the
length of the duct required, it may be necessary
to have a supplementary exhaust system to
ensure adequate air flow.
•The other end of the duct can be vented into an
existing hood, or to the outside in a manner
consistent with local building codes.

CAUTION: Do not touch the glass portion of the
lamp with your hands. The oil from your hands
could affect the operation of the lamp. Skin oil
must be removed with alcohol while the lamp is
cold.
CAUTION: Hold the lamp in the middle of the
length. This will help distribute the force to both
ends of the lamp and decrease the risk of breaking
the lamp.
NOTE: Use a clean rag or paper towel to handle the
replacement lamp.
Removal
1. Remove the shield that covers the lamps as
outlined under “LAMP SHIELDS”.
2. Push the lamp to either side, the spring will allow
the lamp to move.
3. Pull down on the end of the lamp opposite of the
direction moved and remove that end of the lamp
from the lamp socket.
4. Remove the lamp from the oven.
Installation
1. Insert one end of the lamp into the socket. Make
sure the indent is positioned over the socket pin
and the flat spot is aligned with the slot in the
socket.
CAUTION: Do not force the lamp into place.
The ceramic ends of the lamp and the ceramic
sockets are fragile.
2. Push “in”.
3. Align the other end of the lamp with the socket
and allow the spring tension to push the lamp into
place.
4. Re-install the lamp shield that was removed.
5. Perform a lamp test as outlined under “LAMP

1. When the middle LED (D14) is lit, there is power
to the high voltage board and the oven is off.
2. When both the middle (D14) and bottom LED
(D3) is lit, the oven has been turned on by the
on/off key on the keypad.
3. When all three LED’s (D3, D14, D15) are lit, the
oven is operating in a cooking cycle.
CONTROL BOARD BYPASS
If the oven is not operating properly and the control
board is suspected, you can bypass the control board
and allow the oven to operate on full power.
1. Install a jumper wire across TP6 and TP7.
2. If the problem goes away, replace the control
board.
3. If the problem does not go away, the cause is
other components.
LAMP TEST
1. Turn the oven on by pressing the ON/OFF
button. After a few seconds, the display will settle
on Recipe 1.
2. Hold down the 1 button and push the 8button at
the same time. The display will appear as
follows:
3. Press the 1button to begin the lamp test. The
door will lock and the lamps will each turn on

NOTE: The door must be closed and the upper
lamp shield must be in place.
A. If all the lamps is turned on successfully, the
screen will report Lamp OK.
B. If a lamp fails to be turned successfully, the
test will stop and the lamp number will be
displayed on the screen until any key is
pressed. The test will then continue.
NOTE: During the test, if a photo detector is not
signaling the control board, this condition will be
reported on the display at the end of the test.
4. After thetest the ovenwill automatically return to
the normal operating mode.

CONTROL BOARD TEST
To check if voltage is present at the test points on the control board. Reference the voltages to “GND”of the control
board (TP1 or TP2).
TP1 = GND TP3 = +5VDC - Oven “on”TP5 = +24VDC - Power to oven TP7 = 24VDC switched
TP2 = GND TP4 = +5VDC - Oven “on”TP6 = +24VDC - Power to oven

rotation if three phase, in a screen similar to one
of these.
*NOTE: The rotation is for the PHASE rotation,
NOT therotation of therack. The rack will always
turn clockwise.
•The voltage reported on this screen must match
the nominal system voltage supplied to the oven.
If the supply and reported voltages do not match,
see “MANUAL VOLTAGE DETECTION OVER-
RIDE”.
